XRP and SOL ETFs Attract Inflows as BTC, ETH See Outflows
Bitcoin and Ethereum ETFs saw outflows last week, while XRP and Solana ETFs gained significant investor interest.
- Bitcoin ETFs saw $87.77M in outflows, Ethereum lost $65.59M.
- XRP spot ETFs led with $230.74M in inflows.
- Solana ETFs followed with $20.3M in net inflows.
In a notable shift last week, the crypto ETF market witnessed diverging flows, with Bitcoin (BTC) and Ethereum (ETH) spot ETFs facing outflows, while XRP and Solana (SOL) saw healthy inflows. This trend could suggest a changing sentiment among investors seeking diversification beyond the two leading cryptocurrencies.
BTC spot ETFs saw a net outflow of $87.77 million, while ETH spot ETFs followed closely behind with $65.59 million in outflows. These movements might indicate short-term profit-taking or caution amid broader market uncertainty.
XRP and Solana Take the Spotlight
Contrasting the BTC and ETH trend, XRP and Solana ETFs experienced strong investor interest. XRP spot ETFs attracted a massive $230.74 million in inflows — a clear signal of renewed confidence in the token, especially as legal clarity around XRP continues to develop.
Solana, often dubbed the “Ethereum killer,” also saw $20.3 million in ETF inflows. The consistent traction SOL is gaining suggests growing institutional belief in its scalability and DeFi ecosystem potential.
These inflows may reflect a broader appetite among institutional investors to explore high-performing altcoins amid the relative price consolidation in BTC and ETH.
What This Means for the Market
While BTC and ETH remain dominant in terms of market cap and adoption, this week’s ETF flow data highlights that alternative assets like XRP and SOL are gaining meaningful traction. These trends might mark the beginning of a more diversified investment approach, especially in the ETF landscape.
Institutional interest is a strong signal of market direction, and if inflows into XRP and SOL continue, it could mark a strategic shift in portfolio allocations going into 2026.
