In 2025, the institutional markets have been clear, persistent, and almost relentless: Bitcoin remains the undisputed king of regulated capital. Despite the expansion of the crypto ecosystem, the arrival of new ETFs, and the constant narrative about digital diversification, major players have opted for a conservative and selective approach.

📖Data from crypto ETFs in 2025 confirms that Bitcoin (BTC) has been the preferred institutional asset, consistently capturing between 70% and 85% of the total crypto ETF market throughout the year. This concentration reveals how institutional investors have treated their exposure to digital assets: Bitcoin as a gateway, and the rest of the market as territory that still demands caution.
Despite the launch of multiple products linked to other crypto assets, Bitcoin's market share dominance has remained remarkably stable. Combined, Bitcoin and Ethereum spot ETFs attracted approximately $31 billion in flows during 2025, although the distribution heavily favored BTC.
This sustained institutional demand has provided consistent price support for Bitcoin, largely explaining its relatively better performance compared to the rest of the crypto market. For many institutional portfolios, Bitcoin does not behave like “another crypto asset”, but rather like a macro asset, a digital reserve or even a financial commodity, conceptually separate from the altcoin ecosystem.
However, the end of the year shows signs of cooling in activity. Daily trading volumes for Bitcoin spot ETFs have compressed over the past three weeks, with December struggling to break $5 billion per day—a pattern more reminiscent of summer calm than the frenzy of the fourth quarter of 2024.
Meanwhile, Ethereum (ETH) has captured between 15% and 30% of the ETF market by 2025, solidifying its position as the second most significant institutional investment. Although it remains largely overshadowed by Bitcoin, the gradual expansion of its share since the beginning of the year suggests a growing institutional comfort with the asset.
Interestingly, this progress isn't limited to ETFs. While the overall market has experienced recent corrections, corporate accumulation of ETH has accelerated aggressively. Public holdings surged from 4.5 million to over 5.09 million ETH in a matter of weeks, driven almost entirely by a single player: BitMine Immersion (BMNR), led by Tom Lee.

Topic Opinion:
Its dominance in ETFs reflects a preference for the familiar, the regulated, and the narratively simple to explain to investment committees. However, Ethereum is following a different path, less noisy but potentially more transformative. Its advancement depends not only on ETFs but also on corporate treasuries, tokenization, and real-world financial use.
💬 Will Bitcoin continue to capture institutional attention?

Der Kryptomarkt hat immer wieder seine Widerstandsfähigkeit gegen Hacks, massenhafte Liquidationen und Zyklen von Euphorie und Panik unter Beweis gestellt, aber ein Faktor überwiegt weiterhin jede rote Kerze: regulatorische Unsicherheit in den Vereinigten Staaten.

📖 Laut CoinShares haben Krypto-Anlageprodukte – einschließlich der von BlackRock, Bitwise, Ark 21Shares und Grayscale verwalteten – in der letzten Woche Nettoabflüsse von 952 Millionen Dollar verzeichnet. Dieser Schritt kehrte drei aufeinanderfolgende Wochen mit Zuflüssen um und markierte zudem den größten monatlichen negativen Fluss, der kürzlich beobachtet wurde.
