Crypto ETFs: A Mixed Bag Amidst Ongoing Pressure

Crypto exchange-traded funds (ETFs) faced continued pressure on Thursday, with Bitcoin and ether extending their outflow streaks, albeit at a slower pace. XRP and Solana managed to attract some capital, providing small pockets of stability.

The recent selling has lessened but not disappeared. After two days of significant withdrawals, crypto ETFs experienced more moderate movements, yet the overall trend remained unchanged as investors continued to reduce their exposure to bitcoin and ether.

Bitcoin ETFs recorded a $32.11 million net outflow, driven entirely by withdrawals from the two largest products.
The outflows were led by Blackrock’s IBIT with $22.35 million and Fidelity’s FBTC with $9.76 million. Other bitcoin funds did not show significant flows, indicating a persistent risk-off stance.

Ether ETFs fared slightly worse, posting a $41.98 million net outflow as selling pressure remained concentrated in a few funds.
Blackrock’s ETHA saw $44.44 million leave, while Bitwise’s ETHW shed $15.16 million. However, Grayscale’s products experienced inflows, with $9.71 million entering ETHE and $7.92 million flowing into the Ether Mini Trust.

XRP ETFs showed resilience with a $2.09 million inflow for the session, all coming through Franklin’s XRPZ. This reinforced its position as the preferred vehicle during recent volatility.
