On January 15, Bitcoin and Ethereum spot exchange-traded funds (ETFs) recorded substantial inflows, signaling growing investor interest in cryptocurrency-backed financial products.
Bitcoin ETFs saw a combined net inflow of $755 million, led by the Fidelity Bitcoin ETF with a record-breaking $463 million. Other contributors included Grayscale Bitcoin Trust with $50.54 million and Ark Invest’s Bitcoin ETF with $139 million.
Bitcoin ETFs now manage $113.64 billion in assets, representing nearly 6% of Bitcoin’s total market capitalization.
Ethereum spot ETFs also attracted notable inflows, totaling $59.78 million. The Fidelity Ethereum ETF led with $29.32 million, followed by BlackRock’s Ethereum ETF at $19.85 million and the Grayscale Ethereum Mini Trust with $8.09 million.
While Ethereum ETFs are still catching up to Bitcoin in total assets under management, they are steadily gaining traction.
These inflows underscore the growing acceptance of cryptocurrency ETFs as a bridge between traditional finance and digital assets. With increasing institutional and retail participation, these products continue to strengthen their role in the evolving financial ecosystem.
