Spot Bitcoin exchange-traded funds attracted $568.45 million in net inflows during the week of March 2-6, signaling sustained institutional appetite for cryptocurrency exposure through regulated vehicles. Spot Ethereum ETFs recorded more modest inflows of $23.56 million over the same period.
The momentum continued into yesterday's trading session, with Bitcoin ETFs drawing an additional $246.9 million in net inflows, while Ethereum ETFs received $12.6 million. The divergence between Bitcoin and Ethereum fund flows reflects broader market positioning, with institutional investors maintaining a pronounced preference for the largest cryptocurrency by market capitalization.
These inflows underscore the role of spot ETFs as primary channels for mainstream capital entering digital assets. Since regulatory approval of spot Bitcoin ETFs in January 2024, these instruments have become a barometer of institutional sentiment and have facilitated billions in cumulative inflows to the sector.
