Investors break $ 200 million in Ethereum funds as interest rates grow after Pectra Upgrade

Ethereum investment products generated $ 205 million in inflow last week after the climb from the assets to $ 2,700 – more than $ 1.5 million a week earlier – in accordance with a report From Crypto Asset Manager Coinshares on Monday.

In general, investors have $ 785 million filled with investment products for digital assets, including spot-exchange-related funds, the lifting of annual-to-date influx to more than $ 7.4 billion, their highest point of 2025.

“Ethereum was the striking performer,” wrote Coinshares head of research James Butterfill, and noted that Solana generated $ 1 million in Solana.

On Monday, the price of Ethereum had fallen to $ 2,400, a decrease of 4.3% compared to the past day, according to Crypto Data Provider Coentecko. However, the price of the active has risen by 50%in the last thirty days, and in particular higher than the $ 1,850 where it started this month.

Despite the fact that he registered one of the worst performance in the first quarter in the first quarter, Butterfill said Decrypt That Ethereum investors are still willing to get exposure to the active.

“It was recently beaten enormously,” he said. ‘What has been really encouraging, when […] The price has been reduced, it is a major influx of inflow. “

Less than two weeks ago, Ethereum activated the first phase of his Pectra -upgrade. Under major changes in the network, PECTRA scale solutions that are aimed at keeping transactions in the long term, while the amount of Ethereum can be set -out For each validator – a different step aimed at improving the overall efficiency of the network.

Although Ethereum funds showed remarkable power, Bitcoin products attracted more money. After having brought in $ 557 million last week, Bitcoin funds have generated $ 7.2 billion to date, good for the lion’s share of all streams.

In general, digital assets investment products recorded their fifth consecutive week of inflow. That increased year-to-date inflow to $ 7.5 billion, which pushed a peak of $ 7.2 billion in February, before the rates of US President Donald Trump created weeks of tariff-linked unrest.

According to Crypto Data Provider CoinglassSpot ETHEEUM ETFs are left with Bitcoin opposite hits in the US and have brought in $ 2.5 billion compared to the $ 42 billion of the latter, because their debut in 2024. Some of that inequality, analysts say, are due to a lack of rewards for ETF Intenders.

By deploying, users can earn rewards by promising assets to a network to help process transactions. The process became the core of Ethereum with the shift of the network to one proof-of-stake Consensus model in 2022.

By bringing a level of operational predictability for deporting Ethereum, the Pectra -upgrade of Ethereum will make it easier for institutions to integrate rewards into their products, according to Sui Chung, CEO of CF -Benchmarks, which offers crypto price data to CME Group.

“This is not just a technical upgrade,” he said Decrypt. “To offer an ETF that includes commitment, fund managers need an infrastructure that reflects traditional financing with clear repayment period lines, reliable liquidity and flexible control over assets.”
