Capital Rotates Back to Bitcoin ETFs While Ether, Solana Stay Under Pressure
After days of relentless selling, the tone shifted modestly across crypto ETFs as bitcoin finally found a bid. Flows, however, remained sharply divided across the broader market.
Bitcoin spot ETFs posted a $330.67 million net inflow, snapping the recent outflow streak. Blackrock’s IBIT led the recovery with a commanding $232.62 million entry, signaling renewed institutional appetite. Ark & 21shares’ ARKB followed with $43.25 million, while Bitwise’s BITB added $28.70 million.
Grayscale’s Bitcoin Mini Trust attracted $20.13 million, and Invesco’s BTCO rounded out the gains with $6.97 million. No outflows were seen, re-echoing the inflow sentiment. Trading activity remained elevated at $8.04 billion, lifting total net assets to $88 billion.
Ether spot ETFs failed to follow bitcoin’s rebound, recording a $21.37 million net outflow. Blackrock’s ETHA drove the losses with a $45.44 million exit. That pressure was partially offset by inflows into Bitwise’s ETHW ($11.80 million), Grayscale’s Ether Mini Trust ($6.80 million), Vaneck’s ETHV ($3.01 million), and Invesco’s QETH ($2.45 million). Total value traded reached $1.65 billion, while net assets slipped further to $11.83 billion.
XRP spot ETFs remained a bright spot, drawing $15.16 million in net inflows. Bitwise’s XRP led with $8.29 million, followed by Franklin’s XRPZ at $3.94 million and Canary’s XRPC with $2.93 million. Trading volume totaled $54.09 million, pushing net assets back above the psychological $1 billion mark to $1.04 billion.
Solana spot ETFs moved back into the red, posting a $11.86 million net outflow. Bitwise’s BSOL saw the largest exit at $12.04 million, while Vaneck’s VSOL lost $569.98K. Franklin’s SOEZ offered a small offset with a $747.24K inflow. Total value traded reached $60.37 million, with net assets steady at $717.90 million.
