Spot Ethereum (ETH) exchange-traded funds (ETF) in the U.S. experienced a record daily influx of funds on Friday, indicating growing momentum for the second-largest cryptocurrency as it catches up to Bitcoin (BTC). Nine ETH ETFs collectively attracted $332.9 million in net inflows, with BlackRock's iShares Ethereum Trust and Fidelity Ethereum Fund leading the way with $250 million and $79 million respectively. This marked the fifth consecutive session of net inflows for the group and overall, $455 million was invested in ETH ETFs during the week. The surge in interest comes as investors are drawn to altcoins and decentralized finance (DeFi) applications following Donald Trump's election victory. ETH has shown relative strength against BTC, hitting a five-month high and outperforming on a weekly and monthly basis. The ETH-BTC ratio is also forming a potential bottom, suggesting an upswing in sentiment and increased investment potential in Ethereum.
