Today’s focus is on the launch of the spot Ether ETFs in the US, but Bitcoin cannot be ignored. Yesterday, US-based spot Bitcoin ETFs saw their best day of inflows since March, when the asset set new all-time highs. Debate is also raging around the levels of investment the new spot Ether ETFs will attract in the coming months. Will they mimic the success of the Bitcoin ETFs, or will it be “underwhelming,” as some predict? In other news, the WazirX exchange hack threatens to affect India’s crypto industry, and Asia’s first inverse Bitcoin ETF launches in Hong Kong.
