Ethereum Surpasses Bitcoin in Growth Rate with $226 Million Inflow
2025/07/07 15:30- Ethereum grows twice as fast as Bitcoin
- Cryptocurrency funds receive $1 billion in a week
- ETH inflows indicate focus on asset tokenization
Cryptocurrency investment funds recorded another positive week, with total inflows of US$1,04 billion, second report from CoinShares. This was the 12th consecutive week of positive net inflows, bringing the year-to-date total to US$18 billion.
While Bitcoin once again led the way in terms of volume, with $790 million in new inflows, Ethereum was the standout performer, seeing its growth rate double that of BTC. The Ethereum network attracted $226 million in the week, bringing it to over $3 billion in inflows in 2025 alone.
James Butterfill, head of research at CoinShares, commented that the slowdown in Bitcoin inflows may reflect a cautious move by institutional investors as BTC nears its all-time high. Meanwhile, Bitcoin short-listed products still saw $400 in inflows, suggesting a segment of the market is betting on price corrections.
Ethereum’s growth has been driven by its central role in the tokenization of real-world assets. According to Matt Hougan, chief investment officer at Bitwise, spot Ethereum ETFs in the U.S. could attract as much as $10 billion in the second half of the year, boosting institutional demand for exposure to the network.
In addition to the top two cryptocurrencies, altcoins such as Solana, XRP, and Sui also gained traction. Solana’s fund raised $10,6 million, XRP’s fund raised $21,6 million, and Sui’s fund raised $1,6 million. Together, these three cryptos have already attracted over $500 million in capital by 2025.
Regionally, the United States dominated inflows with US$1 billion. Germany and Switzerland followed with more modest volumes, of US$38,5 million and US$33,7 million, respectively. In contrast, Canada and Brazil recorded capital outflows, reflecting a weakening sentiment in these local markets, with withdrawals of US$29,3 million and US$9,7 million.

The "Eye of the Storm" in the Global Economy: Debt Crisis in Developed Countries
The IMF warns that developed economies are becoming the "eye of the storm" for global debt risks. Countries such as the United States and France accumulated high levels of debt during periods of low interest rates, but now rising interest rates are pushing up repayment costs, and fiscal consolidation faces political resistance. BofA Securities points out that the United States is facing declining tax revenues, France has structural income decline issues, and the UK and Japan are also under pressure. The deteriorating debt sustainability of developed countries may impact global financial markets through shocks in interest rates and capital flows.
