BlackRock’s iShares Ethereum Trust (ETHA) is the most dominant, representing around $2.6 billion of inflows recorded in the past eight days.
Although inflows have yet to be recorded for Aug. 15, ETH funds have drawn $2.91 billion in weekly total net inflows, marking their best-performing week since launch.
The previous record was set on the week ending July 18, when funds tallied $2.18 billion in weekly inflows.
This ongoing momentum has given ETH a solid price boost, allowing it to test its all-time high, jumping up an additional 19% over the past seven days to around $4,650.
Bitcoin ETFs
Bitcoin ETFs tallied $230.93 million in daily total net inflows on Aug. 14, 2025, marking day seven of a modest inflow streak totaling $1.34 billion.
That said, it follows a sizable four-day outflow streak between July 31 and Aug. 5, which saw funds lose $1.45 billion in net outflows.

Similar to ETH ETFs, BlackRock’s iShares Bitcoin Trust (IBIT) is almost untouched.
Having recorded $372.21 million in net outflows in the first three trading days of August, it has since pulled $1.33 billion in net inflows.
Coupled with heightened market activity, the BTC token recently crossed into a new all-time high despite all the attention on ETH.
That said, BTC has contracted 1.46% in the past 24 hours, and is now trading at $119,095.
