October 9, 2025 — Global Crypto ETP Inflows have surpassed last year’s record totals, marking a new high for institutional and retail participation in digital asset investment products. According to CoinShares head of research James Butterfill, crypto exchange-traded products (ETPs) attracted $48.67 billion year-to-date (YTD), exceeding the $44.2 billion logged in 2024.
Bitcoin-based ETPs remain dominant but show a clear decline in market share. BTC funds attracted around $30 billion, representing 62% of total inflows down from 86% in 2024 when inflows reached $38 billion. Ether funds, on the other hand, have surged from $4.9 billion in 2024 to $14.1 billion this year, lifting their market dominance to 29%.
Meanwhile, Solana and XRP have emerged as leading altcoins in institutional products, with inflows of $2.7 billion and $1.9 billion respectively.

The surge in Crypto ETP Inflows underlines how exchange-traded products have become a cornerstone of institutional crypto exposure. CoinShares’ report suggests investors are diversifying beyond Bitcoin, seeking yield and staking-based opportunities in Ether and select altcoins.
Analysts expect further acceleration in Q4 2025 as the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission reviews multiple altcoin ETF applications, while Europe continues to expand regulated ETP offerings. Grayscale’s recent launch of the first U.S.-listed spot crypto ETPs with staking capabilities further adds momentum to the market’s evolution.
The shifting composition of inflows marks a critical turning point for the crypto market. While Bitcoin remains the anchor asset, investors are increasingly allocating toward multi-chain and staking-enabled instruments.
This diversification reflects growing confidence in the broader ecosystem, particularly as institutions integrate Crypto ETP Inflows into long-term portfolio strategies. The data points to a maturing market, where regulated access and innovation drive adoption over speculation.
