Cryptocurrency exchange-traded products (ETPs) recorded unprecedented weekly inflows of $4.4 billion, driving total assets under management (AUM) above $220 billion for the first time. This landmark achievement underscores intensifying institutional appetite for digital asset exposure amid broader market optimism.
Ether-based ETPs dominated the surge, with 2025 inflows already eclipsing 2024’s annual total by reaching $6.2 billion. Last week alone, Ethereum products attracted $2.12 billion—their highest single-week inflow—as Ether’s value surpassed $3,500.
Bitcoin ETPs secured $2.2 billion in inflows during the same period, representing half of all cryptocurrency ETP investments. The sustained demand reinforces Bitcoin’s position as a foundational institutional portfolio asset.
Alternative cryptocurrencies also witnessed substantial capital inflows. Solana (SOL) attracted $39 million, XRP recorded $36 million, and Sui (SUI) saw $9.3 million in new investments, reflecting growing diversification strategies across digital assets.
CoinShares’ head of research emphasized the significance of Ethereum’s momentum, noting that inflows over the past 13 weeks alone constitute nearly 23% of Ethereum ETPs’ total AUM—signaling robust investor conviction in Ethereum’s long-term growth trajectory.
