Ethereum News Today: Ethereum ETFs Attract $533.87M Inflow on July 22, Third-Largest Since Launch as Institutional Demand Drives $8.32B Cumulative Inflows

Ethereum spot ETFs recorded a net inflow of $533.87 million on July 22, 2025, marking the third-largest single-day inflow since their launch. This surge, driven by institutional demand, pushed cumulative inflows to $8.32 billion, with BlackRock’s ETHA fund accounting for 80% of the day’s inflows at $426.22 million. Grayscale and Fidelity’s funds added $72.64 million and $35.01 million, respectively, as Ethereum ETFs dominated trading volume with $1.97 billion, outpacing Bitcoin ETFs, which faced net outflows of $67.93 million [1]. The inflows highlight Ethereum’s growing appeal as an institutional asset, despite signs of price momentum easing [2].

Technical indicators suggest a potential short-term correction for Ethereum, which had surged 17% in the preceding week but stalled near $3,700. A 15% decline in spot trading volume and a 13% drop in derivatives volume over 24 hours indicate waning speculative activity. The Relative Strength Index (RSI) hit 81.6, signaling overbought conditions, while the Commodity Channel Index and Stochastic oscillator issued sell signals. However, the Moving Average Convergence Divergence (MACD) remained bullish, pointing to lingering long-term strength [5].

Ethereum’s role in tokenization further solidified its institutional relevance. Tokenized assets on Ethereum exceeded $7 billion as of July 23, capturing 54% of the market share, with Franklin Templeton and BlackRock digitizing assets on the platform. Corporate adoption also expanded, with firms like BitMine Immersion Technologies and SharpLink Gaming adding Ethereum to treasury reserves. This trend underscores Ethereum’s dominance in tokenizing real-world assets, despite Bitcoin’s recent volatility [6].

Analysts noted a decoupling of investor sentiment from Ethereum’s price action, as ETF inflows continued even amid a 2.5% weekly decline in Bitcoin’s value. The 12-day consecutive inflow streak into Ethereum ETFs reflects a strategic shift toward structured crypto products, mitigating direct exposure to volatile spot markets. This aligns with broader institutional validation of Ethereum as a diversification tool, supported by year-to-date inflows of over $2.1 billion [9].

While Ethereum’s fundamentals remain robust, technical analysis cautions near-term risks. A breakout above $3,850 could target $4,000, but a drop below $3,500 might trigger a retracement to $3,250 or $3,100. Market participants are advised to monitor volume trends and key levels as Ethereum navigates a potential consolidation phase [8].
