Ethereum Surpasses Bitcoin in Growth Rate with $226 Million Inflow
2025/07/07 15:30- Ethereum grows twice as fast as Bitcoin
- Cryptocurrency funds receive $1 billion in a week
- ETH inflows indicate focus on asset tokenization
Cryptocurrency investment funds recorded another positive week, with total inflows of US$1,04 billion, second report from CoinShares. This was the 12th consecutive week of positive net inflows, bringing the year-to-date total to US$18 billion.
While Bitcoin once again led the way in terms of volume, with $790 million in new inflows, Ethereum was the standout performer, seeing its growth rate double that of BTC. The Ethereum network attracted $226 million in the week, bringing it to over $3 billion in inflows in 2025 alone.
James Butterfill, head of research at CoinShares, commented that the slowdown in Bitcoin inflows may reflect a cautious move by institutional investors as BTC nears its all-time high. Meanwhile, Bitcoin short-listed products still saw $400 in inflows, suggesting a segment of the market is betting on price corrections.
Ethereum’s growth has been driven by its central role in the tokenization of real-world assets. According to Matt Hougan, chief investment officer at Bitwise, spot Ethereum ETFs in the U.S. could attract as much as $10 billion in the second half of the year, boosting institutional demand for exposure to the network.
In addition to the top two cryptocurrencies, altcoins such as Solana, XRP, and Sui also gained traction. Solana’s fund raised $10,6 million, XRP’s fund raised $21,6 million, and Sui’s fund raised $1,6 million. Together, these three cryptos have already attracted over $500 million in capital by 2025.
Regionally, the United States dominated inflows with US$1 billion. Germany and Switzerland followed with more modest volumes, of US$38,5 million and US$33,7 million, respectively. In contrast, Canada and Brazil recorded capital outflows, reflecting a weakening sentiment in these local markets, with withdrawals of US$29,3 million and US$9,7 million.

Anthropic's Core Concern: Revenue Can Be Withdrawn at Any Time, but Computing Power Costs Are Locked in for up to 20 Years
Zheshang Securities believes that Anthropic's revenue is mainly based on usage-based billing, with remaining performance obligations covering only about 5.1 months of annualized revenue, while compute power costs are already locked in with $895.4 billion in irrevocable commitments, some extending as far as 2045. Revenues can be reduced at any time, but costs are non-exitable, creating a highly asymmetric maturity gap between the two—this is the company's real core constraint.
Triple Pressure from the Federal Reserve, Treasury, and Congress; Goldman Sachs: Liquidity Crisis May Occur in 2027
Goldman Sachs warns that the reserve ratio of bank assets has dropped to around 11%, only slightly above the crisis trough of 2019. In the second half of 2027, a deadlock in debt ceiling negotiations will force the Treasury to rebuild the TGA, triggering a "perfect storm" of a sharp drop in reserves and a surge in T-bill supply; combined with stalled money market fund buying, this will create a huge liquidity black hole. The Federal Reserve could be forced into the awkward position of lowering interest rates and launching large-scale bond purchases to rescue the market.
