Crypto ETF flows overview

Crypto exchange-traded funds recorded mixed flows yesterday, with major assets seeing notable divergence between outflows from large-cap leaders and continued inflows into select altcoins.

Bitcoin and Ethereum lead ETF outflows

Bitcoin ETFs saw net outflows of $277.09 million, marking one of the larger daily drawdowns in recent sessions. Ethereum ETFs followed a similar trend, recording $224.26 million in net outflows.

The simultaneous outflows from both BTC and ETH suggest short-term de-risking or portfolio rebalancing by institutional investors rather than broad-based capitulation.

Solana and XRP extend inflow streaks

Solana ETFs recorded $3.64 million in net inflows, extending their streak to nine consecutive positive days. XRP ETFs continued to stand out, adding $8.54 million and marking 22 straight days of inflows.

The consistency of these flows points to sustained institutional interest beyond the dominant Bitcoin and Ethereum products, particularly in assets with strong liquidity narratives or regulatory clarity.

Chainlink sees modest inflows

Chainlink ETFs posted $1.38 million in net inflows, indicating steady but moderate demand. While smaller in size compared to BTC and ETH movements, continued positive flows suggest incremental accumulation rather than speculative positioning.

No activity across select assets

ETFs tracking Litecoin, Hedera, and Dogecoin recorded zero net flows for the day, reflecting neutral positioning and limited short-term institutional activity in these products.

BTCUSA outlook

The latest ETF data highlights a growing divergence in institutional behavior. While Bitcoin and Ethereum experience short-term outflows, consistent inflows into Solana, XRP, and Chainlink suggest a more selective approach to crypto exposure.

If this trend persists, ETF flows may increasingly serve as a signal for shifting institutional preferences rather than broad market direction.
