Bitcoin ETFs saw another week of positive flows, but they were handily beaten by Ethereum funds after Eric Trump's viral post suggesting people “add ETH.”
Last Monday, Eric Trumpāthe presidentās sonāencouraged crypto investors to buy the dip caused in large part by his dadās trade tariffs drama: āIn my opinion, itās a great time to add ETH,ā he posted on X.

āEthereum stole the show,ā CoinShares wrote in its report. Itās the first time so far in 2025 that Ethereum has come out ahead of Bitcoin, which has routinely been top dog since ETH funds got the go-ahead for trading in the U.S. last July.
