Ethereum (ETH) ETFs have indeed set a new record for weekly inflows. Over the past week, ETH ETFs saw an unprecedented net inflow of $855 million. This surge in inflows is a strong indicator of growing institutional confidence in Ethereum as a valuable asset.
BlackRock’s ETH ETF (ETHA) led the charge, accounting for $523 million of the weekly inflows. This remarkable performance highlights the increasing demand for regulated digital asset exposure among investors. Since Nov. 6, Ether ETFs have experienced three consecutive days of positive flows, accumulating over $217 million. Most inflows occurred on Nov. 8, when four ETF offerings attracted $85.86 million, a level not reached since early August.
The record-breaking inflows into ETH ETFs reflect a broader trend of rising interest in cryptocurrency investment products, with both Bitcoin and Ethereum ETFs seeing significant gains. This trend is likely to continue as more investors seek to diversify their portfolios with digital assets.
