ETF analyst Nate Geraci has noted a major milestone for Bitcoin exchange-traded funds (ETFs), which are now nearing a collective 1 million BTC in holdings - around 5% of Bitcoin’s total supply.
Last week alone, Bitcoin (BTC) ETFs saw inflows totaling $988 million.

BlackRock’s IBIT ETF dominated inflows, bringing in a remarkable $1.15 billion within one week.
In contrast, spot Ethereum (ETH) ETFs have lagged significantly, attracting only $78.89 million as investors continue to show limited interest.
On October 25, IBIT alone secured $291 million in fresh capital, aligning with Bitcoin’s recent price surge to $68,600.
Data indicates that demand for Bitcoin ETFs is driven mainly by retail investors.
Ethereum is rapidly emerging as the institutional favorite, with new ETF inflow data suggesting a seismic shift in investor focus away from Bitcoin.
Ethereum (ETH) has just triggered a golden cross against Bitcoin (BTC)—a technical pattern that has historically preceded massive altcoin rallies.
Veteran trader Peter Brandt has reignited discussion around Bitcoin’s long-term parabolic trajectory by sharing an updated version of what he now calls the “Bitcoin Banana.”
Bitcoin is once again mirroring global liquidity trends—and that could have major implications in the days ahead.
