RECORD INVESTMENT IN THE CRYPTO MARKET AND NEW TARGETS FOR ETHEREUM
Last week, $3.4 billion was invested in crypto funds, marking the highest level since mid-December. This was the third best week of all time (CoinShares, 2025). While Bitcoin funds attracted $3.18 billion, Ethereum funds saw an inflow of $183 million. Solana funds experienced an outflow of $5.7 million, while investments in SUI and ARB funds amounted to $20.7 million and $31.6 million, respectively. Overall movement in altcoins remained limited.
The Ethereum Foundation announced that it will focus on scaling, blockchain storage, and improving user experience in the next 12 months. Ethereum co-founder Vitalik Buterin stated that the goal is to maximize the number of users (Ethereum Foundation, 2025).
On the other hand, a $330 million Bitcoin theft created ripples in the market. Hackers stole 3,520 BTC, converting it to XMR through instant exchange platforms, causing the XMR price to rise by 70%, jumping from $227 to over $390 (Blockchain News, 2025).
Conclusion: As the crypto market continues to grow with record investments and Ethereum’s innovative targets, security vulnerabilities pose a risk.
