After four weeks of outflows, U.S. Spot Bitcoin ETFs saw a modest turnaround with 5,300 BTC in inflows last week, driven mainly by key players like BlackRock, ARK Investment Management, Fidelity, and Grayscale.
BlackRock dominated Bitcoin ETF inflows with 4,069 BTC, signaling institutional interest returning to the market.
ARK Investment Management and Fidelity also experienced significant inflows into their Bitcoin ETF products, indicating growing institutional interest.
On the other hand, US Spot Ethereum ETFs continued to struggle, witnessing large outflows of 76,300 ETH, possibly due to uncertainty around Ethereum's transition to proof-of-stake and market volatility.
Ethereum-based products face challenges as institutional investors seem more inclined towards Bitcoin's perceived stability amidst regulatory uncertainties.
