Spot Bitcoin and Ethereum ETFs attract $20b, topping all asset classes since April

Spot crypto ETFs have seen $20 billion in inflows since April, outclassing all other ETF types.

Spot crypto dominated ETF inflows in the second quarter of 2025. On Wednesday, July 15, NovaDius Wealth President Nate Geraci highlighted the strong performance of spot ETFs. According to a chart by Todd Sohn from Strategas, spot crypto ETFs recorded $20 billion in inflows since April 8, more than any other ETF category.

Spot crypto ETFs, specifically spot Bitcoin (BTC) and Ethereum (ETH) ETFs, drew twice as much capital as precious metals. In fact, they attracted more inflows than both precious metal and commodity ETFs combined.

Bitcoin and Ethereum ETFs also exceeded the combined inflows into thematic fund ETFs and Treasury bill ETFs. This is notable given the rise in Treasury yields during the same period and the growing popularity of AI-focused thematic funds.

These inflows suggest that more investors are turning to Bitcoin as a hedge against inflation and geopolitical risk, a role traditionally held by gold, silver, and other commodities.

Bitcoin ETFs top gold by speed of inflows

Since the launch of Bitcoin ETFs, inflows have surged rapidly. A chart shared by Phil Rosen shows the pace of growth compared to gold ETFs. Over the past 13 years, gold ETFs have attracted approximately $70 billion in inflows. By comparison, Bitcoin ETFs have accumulated $50 billion in just 150 trading days since their launch.

Still, gold ETFs continue to dominate in terms of assets under management. For instance, the largest among them, the SPDR Gold Shares ETF, has $102.12 billion in AUM alone. The second largest, BlackRock’s iShares Gold Trust, has $47.75 billion in AUM.

This suggests that while Bitcoin has gained ground as a macro hedge, it still has a long way to go before it can rival gold as a dominant store of value.

Dogecoin Rally Sparks Meme Coin Frenzy

The post Dogecoin Rally Sparks Meme Coin Frenzy appeared on BitcoinEthereumNews.com. The crypto market is once again buzzing with excitement as meme coins prepare for what could be another explosive rally. Meme coin market capitalization rose 7% in the past 24 hours, with trading volume up 50%, according to CoinMarketCap, as both whales and retail traders return. This surge of momentum has many calling it the beginning of a new “meme season.” Historically, when liquidity floods into meme coins, the strongest projects have delivered outsized gains. Today, one project in particular is drawing attention: Maxi Doge. Source – Crypto ZEUS YouTube Channel The Doge Narrative Remains Strong Much of the current excitement stems from Dogecoin’s performance. With a spot ETF under consideration, $DOGE has rallied roughly 34% and is approaching positive territory for the year. Technically, Dogecoin has been trending upward since late 2023, and maintaining levels above $0.29-$0.30 could pave the way to $0.35. In a strong bull market, even $2 remains possible. This momentum highlights why tokens associated with the Doge brand carry significant cultural and market influence. Projects such as Shiba Inu, Floki, Dogwifhat, Bonk, and Mog Coin have historically been first movers when meme coin cycles return, a trend also reflected in the recent price movements reported on CoinMarketCap. That is why traders are closely watching Maxi Doge, which brands itself as “Doge on steroids” with the goal of amplifying the meme coin narrative. Maxi Doge Presale Hints at 10x to 15x Growth Potential The presale for Maxi Doge is proving successful, having already raised over $2.3 million of its $2.5 million target. Once this phase ends, token prices reset higher, giving early participants an immediate advantage. This presale structure mirrors other meme coins that later performed strongly once listed. If Maxi Doge enters exchanges reflecting its roughly $2 million presale raise and follows the trajectory of…
