This lack of demand signals a short-term hesitation among investors when it comes to Ethereum-related products, possibly influenced by broader market sentiment or pending U.S. regulatory decisions.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The ongoing divergence between Bitcoin and Ethereum ETF flows suggests that Bitcoin continues to be perceived as the more stable and dominant crypto asset in the institutional investment landscape. Market watchers will now be focusing on whether Ethereum ETFs can recover momentum and attract capital inflows in the coming weeks, especially with the potential approval of U.S.-listed spot Ethereum ETFs still uncertain.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">You Might Also Like;<\/h3>\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-latest-posts__list wp-block-latest-posts\"><\/ul>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Spot Bitcoin ETFs continued to attract investor interest, recording net inflows for the fourth straight trading day.
