US spot Ethereum ETF inflows hit $240.7 million on Wednesday, the highest in four months since February, with the BlackRock iShares Ethereum Trust (ETHA) leading the market once again. Marking the 18th consecutive day of inflows, Ether ETFs highlight growing institutional interest as ETH continues to outpace BTC in dominance over the past month, driven by bullish on-chain activity.
Ethereum ETF Inflows Hit 4-Month Highs
On Wednesday, inflows into spot Ether ETFs across all US issuers surged all the way to $240 million. This is the first time since February 4 that daily inflows have surged past $200 million. BlackRock’s ETHA dominated the inflows at $163.6 million, as per data from Farisde Investors.
BlackRock Ethereum ETF (ETHA) has been dominating most of the inflows while crossing the $5 billion milestone for the first time since its inception. As per the official data, ETHA now holds 1,555,807 ETH with assets under management at $4.23 billion. This is probably the longest inflows streak by Ether ETFs in 2025. Commenting on it, ETF Store President Nate Geraci said:
“18 straight days of inflows into spot eth ETFs… Nearly $250mil just today. And there’s still no staking or in-kind creations & redemptions. So early”.
So far this week, BlackRock iShares Ethereum Trust has already contributed to more than $250 million in inflows, with the ETHA stock price shooting up to $21. In the last two months since the Trump Liberation Day, the stock price is already up more than 50% and has become traders’ favourite.
ETH Dominance Over BTC Grows
Since the April 2025 low, ETH has outperformed BTC by nearly 50% in what seems to be an altseason in the making. Market analysts point out the institutional capital rotation from BTC to ETH. The ETH/BTC pair has given a strong breakout, suggesting that the bullish momentum could continue further from here, which could lead to more inflows into Ethereum ETFs.
It shows that the bull market is gaining momentum, with sustained strength in altcoins, particularly in the DeFi and RWA sectors, driven by stablecoins and yield opportunities. Furthermore, with SEC Chair Paul Atkins showing support for DeFi activities, platforms like Ethereum could benefit from it.
