The cryptocurrency ETF market recently saw a significant divergence in investor sentiment. According to data from Cointelegraph, Bitcoin (BTC) ETFs recorded net inflows of $26.8 million, with around 306 BTC purchased. In contrast, Ethereum (ETH) ETFs experienced net outflows of $3.30 million, with approximately 1,590 ETH sold.
Bitcoin ETFs Rebound After Weeks of Outflows
The recent surge in Bitcoin ETF inflows signals a potential shift in market sentiment after five consecutive weeks of outflows. The previous trading week alone saw BTC ETFs attract $744.4 million—the highest inflow in nearly two months. BlackRock’s iShares Bitcoin Trust (IBIT) led the charge with $537.5 million, followed by Fidelity’s Wise Origin Bitcoin Fund (FBTC), which added $136.5 million. This renewed interest suggests growing confidence among institutional investors.
Ethereum ETFs Face Continued Sell-Offs
Ethereum ETFs, on the other hand, have now endured four straight weeks of outflows. Investors appear to be reassessing their ETH positions, with total net flows into spot Ether ETFs declining by 9.8% in March to $2.54 billion. The continued sell-offs may reflect market uncertainty or concerns about Ethereum’s price stability compared to Bitcoin.
Market Trends and Investor Sentiment
The contrasting ETF flows highlight the shifting landscape of crypto investments. Bitcoin’s growing adoption among institutional investors appears to be fueling inflows, while Ethereum struggles to maintain investor confidence. Broader market trends, regulatory developments, and macroeconomic factors may also be influencing these shifts.

The latest ETF flow data underscores the evolving nature of cryptocurrency investment trends. While Bitcoin ETFs gain momentum, Ethereum ETFs continue to see outflows, suggesting a cautious approach from investors. The coming weeks will be crucial in determining whether Bitcoin’s upward trend continues and if Ethereum can regain investor trust.
