📰 What Happened
On July 17, 2025, Ethereum ETFs achieved a historic milestone by surpassing Bitcoin ETF inflows for the first time, recording $602.02M compared to Bitcoin's $522.60M. BlackRock's ETHA dominated with $546.70M in inflows, representing over 90% of daily Ethereum ETF activity. The total combined Bitcoin and Ethereum ETF inflows reached $1.1B, with Ethereum ETFs' total net asset value reaching $17.32B.
📖 Prophetic Significance
The rise of Ethereum ETFs to $17.32B net asset value echoes Babylon's ancient role as humanity's first centralized financial hub. BlackRock's 90% market control ($546.7M) parallels Babylon's monopolistic economic power described in Revelation 18. The shift from decentralized crypto to institutional control through ETFs mirrors prophecies of economic centralization. The $1.1B combined daily inflow represents unprecedented institutional adoption of digital assets, accelerating the infrastructure for a unified global financial system.
