Crypto Market Sees Surge in Bitcoin ETF Inflows and Anticipation for Ethereum ETFs

Today, the cryptocurrency market is abuzz with news of record-setting inflows into Bitcoin exchange-traded funds (ETFs). Over the past six days, U.S.-based spot Bitcoin ETFs have accumulated over $1 billion in assets, with Friday alone seeing a remarkable $300 million in net inflows. This brings the total cumulative net inflows to $15.81 billion, surpassing the previous record of $15.69 billion set in June 2024.

Leading the charge is BlackRock’s IBIT, which added $120 million on Friday, followed closely by Fidelity's FBTC with $115 million. Other significant contributions came from Grayscale's GBTC, Bitwise's BITB, and Ark Invest's ARKB funds.

Despite these inflows, Bitcoin’s price has dropped by approximately 17.5% from its early June high of $71,500 to around $58,900. However, the continued investment into Bitcoin ETFs suggests strong investor confidence in the asset’s future prospects.

Meanwhile, the crypto community is eagerly anticipating the launch of spot Ethereum ETFs. Industry experts believe these funds are close to receiving approval from the SEC, potentially as soon as this month. This development could significantly influence market dynamics and investor sentiment.

In other news, top DeFi tokens and mid-cap cryptocurrencies are also seeing positive movements, reflecting broader market optimism. As always, the crypto market remains highly dynamic and investors are advised to stay informed of ongoing developments. But $BTC $ETH $BNB
