Spot Bitcoin and Ethereum ETFs attract $20b, topping all asset classes since April

2 min read

Spot crypto ETFs have seen $20 billion in inflows since April, outclassing all other ETF types.

Spot crypto dominated ETF inflows in the second quarter of 2025. On Wednesday, July 15, NovaDius Wealth President Nate Geraci highlighted the strong performance of spot ETFs. According to a chart by Todd Sohn from Strategas, spot crypto ETFs recorded $20 billion in inflows since April 8, more than any other ETF category.

Spot crypto ETFs, specifically spot Bitcoin (BTC) and Ethereum (ETH) ETFs, drew twice as much capital as precious metals. In fact, they attracted more inflows than both precious metal and commodity ETFs combined.

Bitcoin and Ethereum ETFs also exceeded the combined inflows into thematic fund ETFs and Treasury bill ETFs. This is notable given the rise in Treasury yields during the same period and the growing popularity of AI-focused thematic funds.

These inflows suggest that more investors are turning to Bitcoin as a hedge against inflation and geopolitical risk, a role traditionally held by gold, silver, and other commodities.

Bitcoin ETFs top gold by speed of inflows

Since the launch of Bitcoin ETFs, inflows have surged rapidly. A chart shared by Phil Rosen shows the pace of growth compared to gold ETFs. Over the past 13 years, gold ETFs have attracted approximately $70 billion in inflows. By comparison, Bitcoin ETFs have accumulated $50 billion in just 150 trading days since their launch.

Still, gold ETFs continue to dominate in terms of assets under management. For instance, the largest among them, the SPDR Gold Shares ETF, has $102.12 billion in AUM alone. The second largest, BlackRock’s iShares Gold Trust, has $47.75 billion in AUM.

This suggests that while Bitcoin has gained ground as a macro hedge, it still has a long way to go before it can rival gold as a dominant store of value.

New Developments Could Push Price Toward $0.40

New Developments Could Push Price Toward $0.40

The post New Developments Could Push Price Toward $0.40 appeared on BitcoinEthereumNews.com. Pi Network has been one of the most anticipated projects in the crypto space, with millions of users mining its tokens via mobile devices long before a tradable price was established. Over the past few years, the project has carefully balanced its testnet development with community engagement, creating one of the largest ecosystems by user count despite not being fully listed on major exchanges. As 2025 advances, new updates are pushing Pi Network closer to mainstream adoption. Analysts suggest these developments could serve as the catalyst that finally drives Pi’s price toward the $0.40 level, a milestone that would validate years of community patience. In this context, investors are watching closely to see if Pi Network can turn its massive user base into sustainable value. Alongside this story, presale projects like MAGACOIN FINANCE are also drawing attention as speculative plays offering high asymmetry before exchange listings. Pi Network’s unique approach Unlike most cryptocurrencies, Pi Network built its community first, launching a mobile mining app that allowed millions of users to accumulate tokens without high-end hardware. This grassroots approach created unprecedented scale, with more than 50 million pioneers participating globally. The challenge, however, has always been translating this scale into economic value. By focusing on KYC verification, ecosystem apps, and gradual migration toward mainnet, the team has aimed to avoid the pitfalls of rushed launches. Analysts argue that this deliberate approach is what could allow Pi Network to sustain value once it achieves full exchange listings. Recent developments In 2025, Pi Network rolled out several updates that have sparked renewed optimism. Expanded KYC processes have accelerated, allowing more users to validate their holdings and prepare for migration. At the same time, Pi App Platform has gained traction, with developers launching decentralized apps directly into the Pi ecosystem. These apps range from…
