Spot Bitcoin ETFs Gain Ground
Spot Bitcoin ETFs saw widespread institutional interest, with leading inflows of $332.8 million. Fidelity remained a key player, attracting $132.7 million to its FBTC ETF. These inflows underscore Bitcoin’s rising popularity among institutional investors owing to growing acceptance.
“Every major inflow into Bitcoin ETFs appears to draw capital from Ethereum, signaling a strategic pivot among investors,” said David Hirsh, Head of ETF Trading at WisdomTree.
Shifting Market Dynamics

while Ethereum ETFs saw $135.3 million withdrawn. The largest redemption occurred in Fidelity’s FETH ETF.
