Ethereum exchange-traded funds (ETFs) in the U.S. are gaining renewed interest from investors. On June 11, spot Ethereum [ETH] ETFs saw a substantial $240.3 million in net inflows, surpassing the $164.5 million recorded by spot Bitcoin ETFs on the same day. This marks the 18th consecutive day of inflows for Ethereum ETFs.
BlackRock’s ETHA Leads the Pack
BlackRock’s ETHA has been leading this influx with $163.6 million in new capital, increasing its total holdings to over 1.55 million ETH. Currently, with assets under management valued at $4.23 billion, ETHA has crossed the $5 billion mark in total inflows since its inception. Other notable inflows have been reported by Grayscale’s Mini Ethereum Trust, ETHE fund, and Bitwise’s BITW.
Ethereum seems to be gaining an edge over Bitcoin [BTC] among institutional investors, as ETH ETFs continue to attract strong inflows. Since April 2025, ETH has outpaced BTC by almost 50%, signaling a potential shift in investor sentiment towards altcoins. This shift is further highlighted by the strong breakout of the ETH/BTC pair, indicating a growing bullish sentiment and increased capital flow into Ethereum-linked assets.
Factors Driving Ethereum’s Growth
Ethereum’s resilience amidst market volatility appears to be driven by more than just price trends. The network’s recent Pectra upgrade, which improved scalability and efficiency, has enhanced its appeal to developers and institutions. Analysts suggest that Ethereum is benefiting from a spillover of institutional interest as Bitcoin positions become saturated. Despite a slight price dip to $2,753.95, Ethereum’s momentum, propelled by regulatory clarity, innovation, and infrastructure upgrades, indicates growing confidence in its long-term potential.
