Cryptocurrency exchange-traded products (ETPs) recorded an inflow of $17.8 billion in the first half of the year.

In its report, CoinShares revealed that this figure is down 2.7% from the $18.3 billion recorded during the same period last year.

Bitcoin ETPs led the way

The CoinShares report revealed that Bitcoin ETPs took the lion’s share, accounting for nearly 84% of the total crypto ETP inflow year-to-date.

Bitcoin ETPs raked in $14.9 billion since the start of the year, with $2.2 billion recorded during the last week of June alone.

Bitcoin’s dominance is not surprising as it remains the leading cryptocurrency by market cap, with retail and institutional investors interested in the coin and its products. Ether ETPs took the second place, outpacing other major cryptocurrencies.

CoinShares added that multi-asset ETPs came in third, with Solana, Cardano, XRP, Chainlink, SUI, and Litecoin ETPs recording underwhelming figures. 

Crypto exchange-traded products posted $2.7 billion in inflows in the trading week ending Friday, June 27th, marking 11 consecutive weeks of inflows. 

Ether ETPs rake in $2.9 billion YTD, suggesting strong institutional interest

While Bitcoin ETPs accounted for most of the crypto ETP inflow in H1, Ether ETPs recorded excellent inflow, indicating growing institutional demand for Ethereum-based products.

The report revealed that Ether ETPs saw a $2.9 billion inflow in the first half of the year, with $429 million recorded during the last week of June.

The excellent numbers mean that Ether ETPs accounted for 16.3% of the total cryptocurrency ETP inflow in the first half of 2025.

Ether ETP inflow far outweighs that of other leading altcoins, including XRP ($219m), Solana ($91m), and Sui ($104m). 

According to Andrei Grachev, Managing Partner of Falcon Finance, Ether ETP interest can be attributed to Ethereum’s robust infrastructure. Grachev added that,

“The persistence of Ether inflows, especially through ETPs, shows investors are aligning with Ethereum’s role as programmable infrastructure.

It is not just about price action—it is about the architecture behind stable assets, staking, and tokenized value flows.”

Ether remains the second-largest cryptocurrency by market cap and currently trades around $2,450. The coin has lost roughly 25% of its value since the start of the year, thanks to the prolonged tariff war and last month’s conflict in the Middle East. 

The United States leads crypto ETP inflow

The CoinShares report also provided some crucial data about the location of crypto ETP investors.

The report revealed that most of the inflow recorded in H1 was almost solely from the US, seeing $16.8 billion. 

In second place is Germany, with $939 million, while Canada ($164 million), Australia ($148 million), and Brazil ($33 million) completed the top five.

A few countries, including Sweden, Switzerland, and Hong Kong, recorded negative inflows during the first half of the year.
