Ethereum (ETH) has been in the spotlight for three consecutive weeks and has benefited from a surge in institutional profits. Amid growing interest in the Ethereum Reserve strategy, the biggest altcoins have pushed the crypto influx to a record weekly high.
Meanwhile, interest in Ethereum has spread to altcoins, urging a call among analysts for an imminent alter season.
Cryptocurrency reached $43.9 billion last week
The latest Coinshares report shows that it reached a crypto influx that reached $43.9 billion last week. It marks the highest ever (ATH) in weekly influx, bringing the (YTD) positive trend from the start of the year to $27 billion. Meanwhile, the managed assets (AUM) amounts to a record $220 billion.
“Digital asset investment products recorded the largest weekly inflow on a record total of $43.9 billion, surpassing the previous peak of the elections since the US in December 2024 at $4.27 billion.
It was marked quite luxurious in the week that ended July 12th, after a rise in crypto inflows at $3.7 billion. We will also extend our positive flow streak and mark the 14th consecutive week of crypto inflow.
As shown on the chart, Bitcoin (BTC) led the company to record a crypto influx of up to $219.6 billion. However, Ethereum has more than doubled its inflow in a week, remaining an outlier. As Beincrypto reported for the week that ends July 12th, Ethereum inflows reached $990 million.
However, last week, the inflow to Ethereum products reached 218.87 billion, reaching 2.1 times the growth rate in a week. Meanwhile, the positive trend towards Bitcoin has dropped from $2,731 to $2,196.
“Ethereum stole the show and collected a record $2.12 billion inflow. Previous records are nearly double the previous record of $1.2 billion. The inflow over the last 13 weeks accounts for 23% of Ethereum AUM, and the 2025 inflow has already exceeded $6.2 billion inflow in 2024,” added Butterfill.
The 2.1x surge in Ethereum inflows is no surprise, and there is growing institutional interest in pioneering altcoins to accelerate. Among them are Sharplink Gaming and Bitmine, which currently holds over $1 billion in Ethereum.
Beincrypto also reported a recent spike in Ethereum prices, with the massive Altcoin market capitalization exceeding the combined Goldman Sachs and Bank of China.
Whales and ETFs (exchange sales funds) have also poured billions into the Ethereum market, with analysts quickly highlighting ATH.
Nevertheless, some analysts are asking for caution, despite Ethereum continuing to ride a wave of rising interest at both retail and institutional levels.
“It’s time to start thinking about exit strategies. Bitcoin and altcoin are approaching the top of the traditional four-year cycle in terms of timing,” Crypto joke host Ran Neuner told followers.
Similarly, Benjamin Cowen, founder of Into the Cryptoverse, points out that many Altcoins are below Ethereum.
Analysts say Ethereum’s control is often increased at the expense of small assets, with capital consolidating into majors before a wider recession.
Against these backgrounds, trader Daan Crypto Trades advises investors to consider managing turnover profits and risk, a strategy to maximize returns in the face of inevitable volatility.

At the time of writing, Ethereum was trading at $3,786, an increase of more than 2% in the last 24 hours.
