In the aftermath of Bitcoin and Ethereum ETFs’ inception into the trading landscape, an intriguing phenomenon was brought to light today, pouring a flurry of optimism on these cryptos across the global crypto realm.
Bitcoin and Ethereum recorded inflows worth $1.01 billion and $35.5 million over the past week, respectively, flagging increased investor optimism amid the BTC &amp; ETH ETF buzz curated in the United States post-approval. Notably, weekly inflows worth $1.05 billion, combining all digital asset inflows, have pushed the year-to-date inflows to a record high of $14.9 billion, per market data. Bitcoin &amp; Ethereum appear to be offering the lion’s share in the massive inflows recorded.

Intriguingly, Bitcoin and Ethereum alone recorded $1.04 billion worth of weekly inflows. The landmark achievement doesn’t come as a surprise, given the rise of BTC and <a href="https://coingape.com/markets/why-is-ethereum-price-going-up-eth-soars-to-3900-as-etf-hype-escalates/" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">ETH ETFs</a>.
However, it’s worth noting that ETH ETFs started sluggishly in the U.S., starkly contrasting to Bitcoin ETFs’ performance.
Meanwhile, other digital assets’ weekly inflows contributed to the record-high year-to-date landmark achieved, with Solana, Litecoin, XRP, and Chainlink contributing to inflows. On the other hand, Short Bitcoin, Cardano, and others witnessed outflows.
Also, the month-to-date inflows for BTC totaled $1.8 billion, whereas ETH noted outflows worth $11.1 million during the same period.

The increased demand, as underscored by massive inflows, often leads to a rise in the price of assets as the market responds to the higher buying pressure. Additionally, inflows into Bitcoin and Ethereum-related investment vehicles can signal growing interest and confidence among investors in treating these cryptos as an asset class, potentially attracting more investors to further drive up prices.
