🟩 Ethereum ETFs Outpace Bitcoin in Fresh Inflows Surge

$ETH

On August 8, 2025, Ethereum ETFs attracted stronger institutional inflows than Bitcoin ETFs, marking one of the most bullish days for crypto-backed funds in recent months. Ethereum ETFs saw a net inflow of approximately $461 million, led by BlackRock’s ETHA ($255M) and Fidelity’s FETH ($132M), pushing total assets under management to around $23.38 billion. Bitcoin ETFs followed closely with $403 million in inflows, driven by BlackRock’s IBIT ($359M) and Fidelity’s FBTC.

This surge reflects a growing shift in investor sentiment, with Ethereum gaining traction due to its broader utility and increasing institutional adoption. Ethereum futures open interest climbed to $58 billion, surpassing Bitcoin’s share and lifting ETH’s market dominance to 34.8%. ETH briefly broke above $4,050, crossing its 200-day moving average—a key bullish technical signal.

While both assets saw strong ETF-based inflows, Ethereum’s lead highlights its evolving role beyond store-of-value narratives. Regulatory clarity around stablecoins and rising corporate interest in Ethereum’s infrastructure may be fueling this momentum.

August 8 wasn’t just a good day for ETFs—it was a signal that Ethereum’s institutional appeal is accelerating.
