Ether Sees $10 Million Exit as Bitcoin Stays Green

Momentum in crypto ETFs remained selective as bitcoin extended its recovery while ether stumbled. Spot bitcoin ETFs added $225.15 million, marking a second straight day of inflows. Blackrock’s IBIT dominated the session with a powerful $322.38 million contribution. Valkyrie’s BRRR brought in $11.57 million, and Wisdomtree’s BTCW posted a rare but notable $8.68 million entry.

Not everything was green. Fidelity’s FBTC saw a sharp $89.29 million outflow, while Grayscale’s GBTC shed $28.19 million. Still, IBIT’s strength more than offset the exits. Total trading volume reached $4.02 billion, and net assets closed at $87.58 billion.

Bitcoin ETFs Extend Gains With $225 Million InflowInflows worth $638 million over the past two days for bitcoin ETFs Ether ETFs, however, moved in the opposite direction. Spot ether funds recorded a $10.75 million net outflow. Fidelity’s FETH was the primary drag, with a sizable $66.73 million exit. Grayscale’s ETHE also posted a $4.67 million decline.

There were bright spots. Blackrock’s ETHA attracted $41.92 million, and Grayscale’s Ether Mini Trust added $18.72 million. But the inflows could not overcome the heavy redemptions. Trading volume stood at $1.18 billion, and net assets slipped to $11.31 billion.

Altcoin ETFs offered steadier footing. XRP ETFs drew $7.53 million in net inflows, led by Bitwise’s XRP with $6.08 million and Canary’s XRPC with $1.45 million. Total value traded reached $38.89 million, with net assets closing at $1 billion.

Solana ETFs added a modest $1.03 million, largely driven by Franklin’s SOEZ at $732.10K and Invesco’s QSOL at $298.32K. Trading activity totaled $52.60 million, and net assets ended at $802.81 million.

In summary, Tuesday’s session reflected a market still rotating capital. Bitcoin ETFs continued attracting strong institutional flows, ether struggled under heavy redemptions, and XRP and Solana quietly extended their inflow streaks, keeping overall crypto ETF sentiment cautiously constructive.
