Largest Crypto ETFs: September 2025

For advisors with clients who want to leverage cryptocurrency as an investment vehicle but don’t have easy access to direct crypto trading through a wallet or exchange, crypto ETFs provide advisors a convenient way to build an allocation to crypto within a client’s existing portfolio.

Crypto ETFs have grown in both popularity and adoption in recent months. In January 2024, the SEC approved the first U.S.-listed spot Bitcoin ETFs, and proceeded to approve spot Ethereum ETFs six months later. Most recently, the SEC approved generic listing standards for spot crypto ETFs in September, opening the door for a wider range of ETFs to be represented and traded by investors and institutions alike.

To provide advisors with crypto-focused investment ideas for consideration in client portfolios, we compiled a list of the largest crypto ETFs based on share class assets under management (AUM) using the YCharts Fund Screener, which helps advisors navigate across a universe of over 85,000 funds.

The following data includes crypto ETF flows over the last month, three months, and one year, along with net expense ratio and one-year price returns.
