- US-listed spot Bitcoin and Ethereum exchange-traded funds attracted more than $1 billion in net inflows on Monday.
- Spot Ethereum ETFs, which had seen five consecutive sessions of outflows, rebounded with $547 million in net inflows.
- Bitcoin ETFs also recorded strong inflows, with $522 million added across the 12 products.
US-listed spot Bitcoin and Ethereum exchange-traded funds drew over $1 billion in net inflows on Monday, reversing recent outflow trends and boosting optimism across crypto markets.
The move coincided with a sharp rebound in Bitcoin prices above $114,000, supported by seasonal factors and renewed accumulation by large holders.
Ethereum ETFs lead the rebound
Spot Ethereum ETFs, which had experienced five straight sessions of outflows, rebounded with $547 million in net inflows, according to SoSoValue.
Fidelity’s Ethereum Fund (FETH) led the gains with $202 million in a single day, followed by BlackRock’s iShares Ethereum Trust (ETHA) with $154 million.
The nine Ethereum ETF products now manage a combined $27.5 billion in assets, roughly equivalent to about 5.4% of Ethereum’s circulating market capitalization.
This reversal highlights a renewed institutional appetite after a weak September.
Bitcoin ETFs see $518 million added
Bitcoin ETFs also recorded strong inflows, with $518 million added across the products.
Fidelity’s FBTC attracted the largest daily inflow of $299 million, while the ARK 21Shares Bitcoin ETF (ARKB) followed with $62 million.

Most other funds posted net gains, although BlackRock’s iShares Bitcoin Trust (IBIT) showed a modest outflow of $46.6 million.
Collectively, Bitcoin ETFs now hold $150 billion in assets under management, representing about 6.6% of the cryptocurrency’s total market capitalization.
Bitcoin price action
Bitcoin extended its recovery on Tuesday, climbing to $114,776 within the past 24 hours before easing slightly below $114,000.
The rebound followed a sharp drop below $109,000 last week amid large liquidations and quarterly options expirations that amplified selling pressure.
Market participants pointed to “Uptober” seasonality—the historical tendency for October to deliver average gains of around 20%—as a factor improving sentiment.
On-chain data showing renewed accumulation by so-called whale investors also supported the move.
Despite the renewed crypto momentum, overall sentiment remained cautious as investors monitored political developments in Washington.
US lawmakers had until Tuesday midnight to reach a funding agreement and avert a government shutdown.
Without a deal, a shutdown would begin Wednesday, coinciding with new US tariffs on heavy machinery, pharmaceuticals, and other goods.
Analysts at Bank of America warned that a prolonged shutdown could complicate Fed policy-making ahead of the October 29 meeting by delaying the release of key economic data, including the September employment report.
“If a shutdown extends beyond the Fed meeting, the Fed will rely more on private-sector data for policy decisions. At the margin, we think this could slightly reduce the likelihood of a rate cut in October, but only modestly,” the bank noted.
