Ethereum Steals Spotlight Last Week with Record ETF Inflows, Surpasses Bitcoin

Global inflows into Bitcoin and Ethereum ETFs hit a record high last week. But it wasn’t Bitcoin that led the way. A new report from CoinShares said, “Ethereum stole the show,” as big investors showed more interest after strong price gains. Ethereum investment products brought in $2.12 billion during the week ending July 19, pushing total yearly inflows to $6.2 billion. This figure is nearly twice the previous weekly record of $1.2 billion. Meanwhile, global data shows Bitcoin and Ethereum inflows were closely matched, as investors searched for stronger returns. Bitcoin attracted approximately $2.2 billion during the same week.

Although Bitcoin reached a new all-time high of $123,000 last Monday, its price has remained mostly steady, while altcoins have begun to rally. Ethereum, in particular, has gained 25% over the past week and is still about $1,000 short of its all-time high of $4,891, which was recorded in November 2021.

Analysts say the flows show shifting investor focus. Bitcoin’s momentum is slowing, while Ethereum gains strength from key legislation and staking benefits. These features make ETH ETFs more appealing to big investors.
