In the period from July 20 to July 24, 2026, spot exchange-traded funds based on bitcoin and Ethereum demonstrated a combined net capital inflow of $137.69 million. According to the SoSoValue analytical platform, bitcoin-focused funds raised $33.79 million, while Ethereum-related instruments generated inflows of $103.9 million. This dynamic marked the third consecutive week of positive balances for both asset categories, indicating continued institutional interest in digital assets. It is noteworthy that the volume of net inflows into Ethereum funds exceeded the same indicator of bitcoin funds by almost three times, reflecting the shift in the focus of some investors to alternative blockchain ecosystems.

A detailed analysis of daily activity revealed the volatility of market sentiment by the end of the reporting period. Spot bitcoin ETFs recorded significant inflows at the beginning of the week, reaching $226.92 million and $203.14 million on July 20 and 21, respectively, but the following days were characterized by outflows of $225.18 million and $240.08 million. In the Ethereum-ETF segment, capital inflows remained stable for four days, peaking at $72.64 million on July 22, before culminating in a moderate outflow of $70.62 million on Friday. Despite short-term fluctuations, over the past three weeks, Bitcoin funds have accumulated more than $306 million, and Ethereum funds have accumulated almost $294 million, confirming a steady medium–term trend.

The altcoin exchange-traded funds segment also ended the reporting week with a positive balance, except in some cases. The largest capital inflows were demonstrated by instruments based on XRP and Solana, which attracted $8.15 million and $7.2 million, respectively. Additional growth was provided by funds associated with Chainlink and Dogecoin, which increased by about 3 million and 351 thousand dollars. At the same time, exchange-traded funds focused on the HYPE asset were the only ones in this category to record a net outflow of $8.61 million. This divergence of results highlights the selective approach of institutional investors when forming portfolios of alternative digital assets.
