The broader crypto market is approaching US$4 trillion in total market capitalisation, driven by Bitcoin’s new all-time high and Ethereum’s 23% weekly surge.
Spot Bitcoin exchange-traded funds (ETFs) have hit another milestone: all funds combined now hold 7% of the total Bitcoin supply. That’s 1,472,757 BTC, valued at US$173.16 billion (AU$266.17 billion), as per the latest data.
The US spot Bitcoin ETFs are leading the group. As Crypto News Australia reported, only three non‑US ETFs rank among the top ten funds. US$363.5 million (AU$558.64 million) entered the US funds on Friday, marking the twelfth trading day in a row with net positive inflows.
As on most other days, the bulk of inflows went into BlackRock’s IBIT, a whopping US$496.8 million (AU$763.54 million) on Friday. Other ETFs – such as Fidelity’s FBTC, Bitwise’s BITB, VanEck’s HODL, Ark’s ARB and Grayscale’s GBTC – all saw net outflows.
Wisdom Tree’s BTCW was the only other ETF with net inflows, with US$3.1 million (AU$4.76 million).
Invesco’s BTCO, Franklin Templeton’s EZBC and Valkyrie’s BRRR all had zero net flows. IBIT is the fastest-growing ETF in history and the largest Bitcoin ETF, currently holding 3.4% of all BTC – some 731,515 coins valued around US$86.7 billion (AU$133.2 billion).
The 12‑day streak means that, since 1 July, there have been no net outflows from US funds, with over US$6 billion (AU$9.21 billion) flowing into these ETFs.
Nate Geraci, president of Nova Dius Wealth, explained that US$25 billion (AU$38.38 billion) of spot Bitcoin and Ethereum ETFs have been added in 2025 so far.
Does Ethereum Surge Signal Altseason?
Ethereum ETFs enjoyed a massive week, with over US$2 billion (AU$3.07 billion) added between Monday and Friday.
The surge of interest comes as Bitcoin made a new all-time high (ATH) last week at US$123,091 (AU$189,066). Ethereum, meanwhile, hasn’t hit an ATH yet, but has been rallying 23% over the past week and currently trades at US$3,755 (AU$5,767).
Other altcoins, like XRP – which also made an ATH last week – are also trending up, suggesting that we may see altseason soon.
With this, the market cap of the whole crypto market is moving upward, inching towards a global US$4 trillion (AU$6.1 trillion), an unprecedented level.
