Institutional Bets Fuel Surge in Bitcoin and Ethereum ETF Inflows

Despite recent price dips, institutional investors are showing a strong appetite for Bitcoin and Ethereum exchange-traded funds (ETFs). Bitcoin spot ETFs saw $432.7 million in inflows on May 28th, highlighting persistent institutional interest despite cryptocurrency market volatility. This follows a record month for inflows exceeding $3.6 billion since the start of May. Robert Brown, Economic Advisor at Digital Asset Advisory, commented, ‘Bitcoin spot ETFs recorded total net inflows of $432.7 million on May 28, 2025, underscoring the persistent institutional appetite for crypto.’ Ethereum ETFs, meanwhile, saw $84.9 million in inflows. Funds like ETHA led with $52.7 million while others followed, demonstrating market variability. This suggests a continued trust in digital assets and potential shift in investor strategies, with some financial analysts believing long-term investment is likely.
