Bitcoin ETF trading volume falls to lowest since October 2024 as ether funds lead inflows
NEW YORK, July 25. Weekly trading volume for bitcoin exchange-traded funds dropped to its lowest level since October 2024, fund data show, as ether products led on net inflows for the period. $ETH funds hold roughly one-eighth of the net assets that $BTC products carry, yet the two categories attracted nearly the same amount of fresh capital over the past three weeks.

Weekly trading volume for bitcoin exchange-traded funds dropped to its lowest level since October 2024, fund data show, as ether products led on net inflows for the period. $ETH funds hold roughly one-eighth of the net assets that $BTC products carry, yet the two categories attracted nearly the same amount of fresh capital over the past three weeks.
Ether funds outpace their asset weight
Bitcoin ETFs hold approximately eight times the net assets of ether funds. Over a three-week period, both categories drew in nearly equal amounts of new capital. That gap between size and inflow pace means $ETH products attracted money at a rate well above their proportional share of the combined market. Fund data show ether products led inflows again during the stretch, pointing to a recurring dynamic rather than an isolated result.
$BTC volume hits a multi-month low
Weekly trading volume for $BTC funds fell to a level not recorded since October 2024. Net inflows to bitcoin products continued during the same period, though ether funds closely matched them across the three-week span. Volume and inflows measure different activity: volume counts secondary-market trading of existing shares, while inflows count cash entering the fund for the first time.
