- Bitcoin ETFs pulled in huge money this week, showing more big investors are jumping back into crypto with strong confidence.
- BlackRock led the buying wave as Bitcoin prices stayed high, proving investors still trust crypto even after past pullbacks.
- Big firms are getting ready to launch XRP ETFs, and that’s making traders excited about more growth across the crypto market.
The cryptocurrency market is witnessing renewed optimism as Bitcoin spot ETFs post massive inflows while anticipation for a U.S. XRP ETF grows. Between October 6 and October 10, Bitcoin spot ETFs recorded a net weekly inflow of $2.71 billion, with BlackRock’s IBIT leading with $2.63 billion.
Ethereum ETFs also gained strong traction, pulling in $488 million, largely driven by BlackRock’s ETHA, which added $638 million. These figures highlight growing institutional demand as digital assets enter a new phase of mainstream adoption.
Bitcoin ETF Inflows Strengthen Market Momentum
Data shown by Wu Blockchain on X from Sosovalue shows that Bitcoin’s spot ETF assets reached $158.96 billion during the measured period, while Bitcoin’s price stood at $116,661.50. The market had significant influx activity starting in early 2025, particularly from April to August, when weekly bars consistently exceeded $2 billion. In September 2024, inflows topped $3 billion, marking a significant uptick in institutional confidence.
Not every week, though, showed the same optimism. Profit-taking and market instability caused significant withdrawals in November and December of 2024, with red bars dropping below -3 billion. However, the 2025 recovery brought sentiment back to normal.
Moreover, consistent inflows since mid-2025 strengthened Bitcoin’s uptrend, pushing prices toward the $140K–$150K range by September. The steady accumulation phase has brought total ETF assets close to $159 billion, showing sustained investor trust.
XRP ETF Filings Add Fuel to Market Excitement
Besides Bitcoin’s momentum, optimism surged over reports of imminent spot XRP ETF approvals. Several issuers, including Bitwise, Franklin, 21Shares, WisdomTree, Grayscale, and Canary, submitted S-1 amendments to the U.S. SEC. These updates included ticker symbols—an industry signal that the launch stage is nearing completion.
Nate Geraci, President of Novadius Wealth, shared on X, “Another batch of S-1 amendments rolling in on spot XRP ETFs… Getting close.” His remarks boosted confidence that institutional exposure to XRP may soon expand, adding a new chapter to crypto ETF adoption.
