That price sits about 3.5% below its all-time high of $4,890, reached in November 2021.<\/p>\n<p>Money flowed into spot ETH exchange-traded funds in huge amounts on a single day, with about $1 billion of cumulative inflows reported.<\/p>\n<p>Based on reports, BlackRock\u2019s ETHA took in roughly $640 million and the Fidelity Ethereum Fund (FETH) pulled in around $276 million, and the group of Ethereum ETFs now holds nearly $26 billion in assets under management.<\/p>\n<h2>Prices And Movers<\/h2>\n<p>Reports have disclosed strong weekly gains for other coins too, with Solana up 23% and Dogecoin rising 21% over the same seven-day period.<\/p>\n<p>Ethereum, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.coingecko.com\/en\/coins\/dogecoin\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener nofollow\">Dogecoin<\/a>, Solana and LINK are among the top movers inside the top ten by market cap.<\/p>\n<p>Some of those moves are tied to the ETF inflows for Ethereum and to renewed retail interest, according to market analysts and on-chain trackers.<\/p>\n<p>Investors looking for quick gains have been shifting capital out of Bitcoin and into these bets, at least for now.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full\" src=\"https:\/\/www.tradingview.com\/x\/9df2iq5x\/\" width=\"1835\" height=\"909\"><br \/>\nRetail Attention And Market Share<\/p>\n<p>Based on reports from analytics firms, the fall in BTC dominance reflects a rotation of capital into smaller and mid-sized coins.<\/p>\n<p>That rotation has coincided with higher search traffic for altcoin names on Google. This is a sign that retail traders are paying more attention to non-Bitcoin coins right now, and that attention is showing up in price action across several markets.<\/p>\n<p>Market watchers say the next key signals will be whether ETF inflows keep up and whether Bitcoin reclaims lost market share.<\/p>\n<p>If flows to Ethereum funds stay strong, that could keep supporting prices. If Bitcoin bounces back, some of the more speculative gains in altcoins could be reversed.<\/p>\n<p>For now, the data points are clear: searches for altcoins are up, Ethereum ETFs saw a massive one-day inflow near $1 billion, and BTC dominance has waned over the past two months.<\/p>\n<p><em>Featured image from Unsplash, chart from TradingView<\/em><\/p>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Google Trends and market trackers show a fresh wave of interest in altcoins as Bitcoin\u2019s share of the market slips.
