Record Inflows for Bitcoin and Ethereum ETFs
May 1 proved to be a landmark day for crypto ETFs in the U.S. market . Bitcoin and Ethereum ETFs combined to draw $429 million in net inflows, signaling robust institutional demand for both digital assets. Bitcoin led the surge with 4,490 BTC worth $422.5 million flowing into spot ETFs. Ethereum ETFs also saw modest but notable activity, adding 3,630 ETH totaling $6.5 million.
These inflows indicate that investors remain highly bullish on crypto, particularly Bitcoin, as a hedge and long-term asset—especially following increasing adoption through regulated financial products like ETFs.
Bitcoin Leads the Way Again
Bitcoin ETFs have consistently outperformed their Ethereum counterparts in terms of inflows. The $422.5 million influx into BTC ETFs reflects growing investor confidence, especially with institutions like BlackRock and Fidelity playing a major role in the space.
This also aligns with Bitcoin’s rising market dominance, which recently hit a four-year high at 64.73%. The ETF inflows reinforce Bitcoin’s position as the leading digital asset in terms of institutional adoption and market maturity.
Ethereum Shows Steady Momentum
While Ethereum’s inflows were comparatively smaller, the $6.5 million in net additions suggests steady investor interest, particularly in anticipation of broader regulatory clarity and potential approval of spot ETH ETFs.
As Ethereum continues to power DeFi , NFTs, and smart contracts, even small movements in ETF investments can have ripple effects across the broader crypto ecosystem.
Together, the inflows for Bitcoin and Ethereum on May 1 reflect a growing appetite among investors to gain exposure to crypto through compliant and regulated channels.
