Ethereum’s Market Dynamics: Record ETF Inflows Amid Declining ETH/BTC Ratio

Ethereum (ETH) is currently dealing with a complicated market situation that includes record-breaking exchange-traded fund (ETF) inflows as well as a significant drop in its valuation in comparison to Bitcoin (BTC).

 

 

An extraordinary $307.77 million influx into Ethereum ETFs yesterday indicated increased institutional interest in the asset. This spike in investment has helped to drive up the price of ETH, which is currently trading at about $2,764, up 0.99% in the last day. With support located at $2,500 and $2,400 and major resistance levels at $3,000, analysts are keeping an eye on the market and predict a positive breakout if these levels are crossed. 

At the same time, the ETH/BTC ratio dropped to 0.027, a four-year low. Because institutional investors prefer Bitcoin-focused ETFs, Ethereum is failing in comparison to Bitcoin, as evidenced by this decline. The ratio has dropped more than 70% since September 2022 and by over 13.8% in the last month, indicating a substantial change in market conditions.

In addition to these developments, Ethereum’s daily spot trading volume reached an all-time high of $38 billion on February 4, 2025. This surge in trading activity coincided with public endorsements from prominent figures, including Eric Trump, who expressed optimism about Ethereum’s investment potential. Such endorsements may have contributed to increased investor interest and trading volumes.

These concurrent trends of record ETF inflows and a declining ETH/BTC ratio highlight the evolving landscape of cryptocurrency investments. While institutional interest in Ethereum is evidently growing, Bitcoin continues to maintain a dominant position in the market. Investors are advised to monitor these developments closely, considering both the opportunities presented by increased institutional adoption of Ethereum and the implications of its relative performance against Bitcoin.
