ETH Outperforms Bitcoin: Institutional Investors Shift Focus to Ethereum-based Products

Ethereum exchange-traded funds (ETFs) have recorded a remarkable surge in investor interest, consistently outperforming their Bitcoin counterparts throughout the past week. According to SoSo Value data, spot ETH ETFs attracted $231.23 million in new capital on July 24, surpassing the $226.61 million net inflows recorded by spot Bitcoin ETFs.

When viewed from a six-day period, spot ETH ETFs have received nearly $2.4 billion in net inflows, almost triple the $827.6 million logged by Bitcoin ETFs within the same duration. This trend reflects an even broader shift in institutional investor sentiment, with focus increasingly directed towards Ethereum-based products.

As noted, “This is the first time in ETF history that Ethereum has consistently outperformed Bitcoin in daily inflows across multiple trading sessions. It’s clear ETH is officially regarded as an institutional-grade asset,” crypto analyst Bec emphasized.

Institutional interest in Ethereum ETFs has propelled ETF holdings to unprecedented heights. In July 2025 alone, ETH ETFs have absorbed more than $4.4 billion in inflows, surpassing the total inflows from the entire previous 12-month period, which stood at approximately $4.2 billion.
