The post Bitcoin Holds $114K While Ethereum ETFs Remain Flat Amid Government Shutdown appeared first on Coinpedia Fintech News
On September 30, both spot ETFs, Bitcoin, and Ethereum, sharply dropped in inflows. According to data from SoSoValue, Bitcoin saw a combined $426.96 million in inflows with only four ETFs reporting gains, while Ethereum recorded $127.47 million.
With the U.S. government shutting down on October 1, 2025, after Congress failed to pass the federal budget, crypto markets could face turbulence. The pause in government operations may delay regulatory reviews, affecting Bitcoin and Ethereum ETF inflows.
Bitcoin ETF Breakdown
Bitcoin ETFs posted a total net inflow of $429.96 million. BlackRock IBIT led the inflows chart with $199.43 million, followed by Ark and 21Shares ARKB $105.74 million. Bitwise BITB and Fidelity FBTC also added $70.09 million and $54.70 million, respectively.
With only four out of twelve ETFs reporting inflows, the total trading value dropped to $3.26 billion. Net assets came in at $150.77 billion, representing 6.60% of the Bitcoin market cap.
Ethereum ETF Breakdown
Ethereum ETFs recorded $127.47 million in inflows, with only BlackRock ETHA reporting any activity. Apart from ETHA, none of the other eight ETFs posted any inflows or outflows on Tuesday.
Despite a small inflow, Ethereum ETFs showed little change in trading value from the previous day. Their total net assets dipped slightly to $27.40 billion, representing 5.41% of Ethereum’s market cap, with trading volume at $1.46 billion.
Market Context
Bitcoin is trading at $114,592, showing steady progress, with a market cap of $2.83 trillion and daily volume of $57.418 billion. Ethereum trades at $4,150.85, with a market cap of $500.624 billion and daily volume of $33.974 billion, slightly down from the previous day.
Historical trends suggest Bitcoin could see a bullish October if interest in crypto ETFs remains strong. Ethereum continues to gain from institutional adoption, driven by its role in decentralized finance, NFTs, and smart contracts.
