Since the beginning of 2025, Ethereum has demonstrated strong capital attraction — with a net inflow of $4.2 billion, ranking first among all public chain ecosystems. This reflects the market's continued recognition of the long-term value of the ETH network.
In contrast, the performance of other public chains has been more polarized. Arbitrum has become the Layer 2 network with the most concentrated capital outflows, while mainstream public chains like BNB Chain and Polygon PoS have also experienced varying degrees of net capital outflows. This phenomenon warrants attention — it suggests that the market is undergoing a structural adjustment in asset allocation, with increasing divergence between leading public chains and second-tier projects.

Laozi has long said that as long as you bottom fish ETH, you'll win passively.

Arb is bleeding out, now I really have to go all-in on ETH.
---
42 billion flows into ETH, other public chains are still dreaming haha.
---
Stop analyzing everything; the money has already voted. ETH is king.
---
Polygon collectively running away? That's hilarious. Those who should have cleared their positions already did.
---
Is no one optimistic about the second-tier projects... feels a bit cold-blooded.
---
ETH vampire mode activated, small public chains are suffering.
---
This is called the head effect, a game of the strong getting stronger.
---
Funds flow to higher places, which is perfectly normal. Survival of the fittest.
---
I think ARB looks a bit tragic, but I want to buy the dip... is that a little crazy?

4.2 billion into Ethereum, other chains are starting to bleed... This is the winner-takes-all situation, there's nothing we can do.

4.2 billion invested in ETH, other chains are being abandoned directly, this is the market's answer
---
The outflow speed of Arbitrum feels like the market is liquidating
---
Another round of top projects eating the meat, small chains drinking the soup
---
Ethereum is stable, all the money on other chains is probably fleeing
---
Structural adjustment? Basically, everyone who makes money is betting on ETH
---
The second-tier projects are really suffering this time, funds are all gathering towards the top projects
---
42 billion, how many project teams are crying
---
BNB and Polygon are also flowing out, they really look down on them
---
Exactly right, the Matthew Effect is becoming more and more obvious
---
Only ETH is siphoning, other chains simply can't withstand
