Key Takeaways

  • Crypto investment products continue to see outflows towards the end of the year.
  • Bitcoin led the outflows in the past week, while Solana and XRP continue to see inflows for another week.
  • The weekly flows indicate a cautious approach by investors.

Bitcoin and Ethereum exchange-traded funds (ETFs) have continued to experience massive outflows towards the end of the year.

At a time when BTC and ETH investment products continue to see outflows, Solana and XRP ETFs have maintained their market-defying momentum, recording their most significant weekly inflows since inception.

Bitcoin and Ethereum Products Still Negative, Altcoins See Optimism

Crypto investment products saw outflows of $446 million last week, bringing total outflows since the October 10th shock price decline to $3.2 billion.

Despite the recent drawdown, year-to-date inflows remain robust at $46.3 billion, slightly below 2024’s $48.7 billion, while total assets under management (AUM) are still up 10% YTD.

Bitcoin investment products accounted for the bulk of last week’s outflows, shedding $443 million, while Ethereum products followed with $59.5 million in outflows.

In contrast, newer products continued to attract capital. Solana and XRP ETFs both posted their strongest weekly inflows since launch, defying the broader trend.

XRP ETFs recorded $79 million in net inflows, while Solana ETFs added more than $7.5 million.

The divergence suggests investor confidence is becoming increasingly selective, with capital rotating toward XRP and Solana exposure even as funds continue to exit Bitcoin and Ethereum products.

Investors Cautious

Examining the weekly flow of crypto investment products, investors remain cautious about the value of BTC and ETH heading into the end of the year.

BTC’s price reclaimed $90,000, while the ETH price climbed above $ 3,000.

However, like several past instances since October, both tokens failed to sustain the bullish momentum and lost all of their gains within hours of breaking past key resistance.

On the other hand, altcoin spot prices remain in the bearish zone; however, due to the recent launch of these products, investors are more open to taking risks with them, as evident from XRP’s zero outflow days, while Solana has seen key inflows from time to time.

The United States remains the hub of most flows, owing to the launch of some of the largest ETF products in the country.

Germany’s inflows suggest opportunistic buying during market dips, while the US dominated the negative flows.
