Ethereum and Bitcoin ETFs Attract Over $570M in Inflows Amid Bullish Trend
Ethereum spot ETFs attracted $326.83M over August 4-8, continuing positive momentum. Fidelity’s FETH and BlackRock’s ETHA led Ethereum ETF inflows with over $100M each. Bitcoin spot ETFs netted $246.75M, led by BlackRock’s IBIT with $189M inflow. Ethereum-based exchange-traded funds (ETFs) continued to attract significant investment between August 4 and August 8, 2025, with inflows totaling $326.83 million, according to SoSoValue. This marks the 13th consecutive week of positive capital flows in the segment, highlighting sustained investor confidence. The leading Ethereum spot ETFs during the week were Fidelity’s FETH with $109.05 million in inflows, followed closely by BlackRock’s ETHA at $105.44 million. Other notable inflows included Bitwise’s ETHW ($32.63 million), Grayscale’s ETHE ($29.86 million), and Grayscale’s ETH ($22.74 million). Smaller yet meaningful inflows were also observed in funds such as VanEck’s ETHV ($12.27 million) and Franklin Templeton’s EZET ($5.84 million). In the spot Bitcoin ETF sector, inflows reached $246.75 million. BlackRock’s IBIT led with a dominant $188.92 million inflow, followed by Bitwise’s BITB with $62.26 million. Other funds that saw positive capital movement included BTC ($30.58 million), HODL ($25.57 million), GBTC ($3.40 million), and EZBC ($3.38 million). However, three Bitcoin ETFs—BTCO, BTCW, and DEFI—did not record new funds under management, and three others experienced capital outflows: FBTC ($55.18 million), BRRR ($6.44 million), and ARKB ($5.76 million). These inflows into Ethereum and Bitcoin ETFs reinforce the growing acceptance of cryptocurrency investment vehicles among institutional and retail investors alike, supporting price stability and broader market adoption.

CEA Industries Secures $160M BNB Position Through Treasury Arm
CEA Industries Inc., the Colorado-based nicotine company, announced that its treasury management arm, BNB Network Company (BNC), has acquired 200,000 BNB tokens. The stash is worth around $160 million, which makes it the largest corporate holder of BNB globally. $160 Million Bet The purchase follows a $500 million private placement led by 10X Capital in partnership with YZi Labs, earmarked exclusively for building BNB holdings as the company’s primary reserve asset. Leadership changes have accompanied the crypto pivot as David Namdar, co-founder of Galaxy Digital, was appointed as CEO, alongside Russell Read, former CIO at CalPERS, and Saad Naja, a former Kraken director. 10X Capital’s Hans Thomas and Alexander Monje have also joined the board. BNB Network Company (BNC) explained that BNB, with 250 million users and an average daily trading volume of $9.3 billion as of July 2025, remains underrepresented in the US market. As such, BNC intends to bridge this gap by increasing institutional presence within the BNB ecosystem. In its official press release, the NASDAQ-listed company said that it will maintain its buying spree until the full initial capital is invested in BNB. It may also use its warrant structure to raise an additional $750 million, which could bring total proceeds to $1.25 billion for further acquisitions. This approach provides US and global investors with exposure to BNB without direct token custody. BNB’s Market Momentum More publicly traded firms are replacing portions of their cash reserves with digital assets. These entities are structuring strategies to appeal to both retail and institutional investors. While Bitcoin and Ethereum have long dominated, focus is now turning to alternatives like BNB. This corporate pivot toward BNB coincides with its uptrend seen in recent weeks. BNB is currently trading over $818 after maintaining a steady uptrend this month. Crypto analyst Ali Martinez believes that the crypto asset’s price action is closely tracking Bitcoin’s structure. He added that this correlation could point to the early stages of a bull rally, which could potentially drive BNB toward the $1,200 mark.
