Bitcoin and Ether ETFs Turn Green With $239M in Inflows as Japan Moves Toward Crypto ETFs
Crypto ETF flows turned positive on Tuesday, July 14, with bitcoin funds drawing $181.08 million and ether ETFs adding $58.34 million. No bitcoin or ether ETF recorded an outflow, giving the session a steadier tone than the uneven rebounds seen earlier this month.
Bitcoin ETFs were led by BlackRock’s IBIT, which added $138.91 million. Fidelity’s FBTC followed with $21.07 million, while Morgan Stanley’s MSBT brought in $7.40 million. Grayscale’s Bitcoin Mini Trust added $6.56 million, Ark & 21Shares’ ARKB drew $3.64 million, and Bitwise’s BITB rounded out the day’s inflows with $3.50 million. Total bitcoin ETF value traded reached $2.30 billion, and net assets closed at $77.96 billion.
Ether ETFs also moved higher, with $58.34 million in net inflows. The full amount went into BlackRock’s ETHA, while no ether fund recorded an outflow. Total ether ETF value traded stood at $808.76 million, and net assets closed above $10 billion.
Altcoin ETFs, including HYPE, XRP, and solana products, saw no trading activity, marking an unusually quiet day for that segment. The lack of flows contrasted with the concentrated institutional demand for bitcoin and ether.
Beyond daily flows, the crypto ETF pipeline continued to broaden. Morgan Stanley filed updated amendments for proposed spot ether and solana ETFs, with Coinbase Custody among the service providers and staking provisions included. The products remain subject to regulatory approval.
Japan also moved closer to a regulated crypto ETF framework. Japanese policymakers advanced reforms to classify crypto assets under the Financial Instruments and Exchange Act—the same regime used for traditional financial products—while also opening a path toward crypto ETFs and a lower tax framework.
Tuesday’s flows gave the market a cleaner signal than Monday’s selloff. Bitcoin and ether found buyers without visible internal resistance, while altcoins paused. The recovery remains selective, but the tone across the two largest crypto ETF categories has improved.
