News Roundup — Bitcoin, Ethereum ETF inflows top $1B: Fidelity leads, BlackRock lags

Major news stories this week:

  1. Bitcoin, Ethereum ETF inflows top $1B: Fidelity leads, BlackRock lags
  2. Over 70% of stablecoin transactions in Q3 linked to bots
  3. Vietnam rolls out 5-year regulated crypto market pilot
  4. Thailand SEC to expand crypto ETF plans beyond Bitcoin
  5. Scottish Government move to provide ‘legal clarity’ over cryptocurrencies

Story Summaries:

  1. U.S.-listed spot Bitcoin and Ethereum ETFs saw over $1 billion in net inflows, signaling a renewed wave of institutional interest. Fidelity led the pack with strong performance from both its Bitcoin and Ethereum funds, while BlackRock's Bitcoin ETF lagged behind amid a broader crypto price recovery.
  2. A new report shows that bots were responsible for 71% of the $15.6 trillion in stablecoin transactions during Q3 2025. While bot activity remains high, retail usage is also on the rise, with small-value transfers hitting record highs, indicating growing adoption beyond trading.
  3. Vietnam has initiated a 5-year pilot to regulate its crypto market, including requirements for licensed exchanges to offer trading in Vietnamese dong by 2026. The move is part of broader digital economy reforms and includes support for the nation’s blockchain infrastructure, NDAChain.
  4. Thailand’s securities regulator is developing new rules to enable multi-asset crypto ETFs, aiming to move beyond Bitcoin-only products. The initiative targets greater investor protection and market access to assets like Ethereum and Solana, with institutional and mutual fund participation encouraged.
  5. The Scottish Government has introduced a bill that could classify cryptocurrencies as property under Scots private law. If passed, this legislation would provide a clearer legal foundation for digital assets, encouraging investment and aligning digital currencies with traditional property rights.

And that’s all for last week’s news! Wishing you a great week ahead!
