Spot Bitcoin ETFs booked $824 million in net inflows between April 20 and April 24, the fourth straight week of net additions, according to aggregated fund flow data.
Spot Ethereum ETFs pulled in $155 million over the same window, stretching their own streak to three consecutive weeks of net inflows.
Why it matters
The headline number is the Bitcoin streak — four straight weeks of net inflows after the post-ETF-launch rotation noise has long since faded is a structural bid, not a launch-period artifact. Capital is being re-upped into spot BTC exposure at a steady cadence rather than churned.
The secondary read is the alt-coin ETF complex: spot SOL ETFs recorded their first material weekly print at $9.44 million in net inflows, while spot XRP ETFs took in $15.74 million. Small numbers relative to the Bitcoin and Ethereum books, but the first real confirmation that allocators are extending their ETF appetite beyond the two majors.
Market impact
Weekly net inflow runs of this size are what the spot BTC complex needs to absorb ongoing miner sell-pressure and quiet spot accumulation on Coinbase. For Ethereum, three straight weeks of inflows is the cleanest signal yet that the staking-reclassification overhang is fading from allocator behaviour.
The SOL and XRP prints are early — single-week numbers, no streak yet — but they validate the thesis that the same institutional plumbing wired up for Bitcoin and Ethereum is starting to clear for the next tier of crypto assets.
