Bitcoin ETFs See Inflows as Ether and XRP ETFs End Streaks

Demand for US spot crypto ETFs cooled Wednesday, reversing recent inflow streaks in both Ether and XRP products. After more than a week of persistent buying, spot Ether ETFs saw net outflows totaling $48 million, while spot XRP ETFs recorded $7.2 million in net withdrawals.

Bitcoin ETFs moved in the opposite direction, drawing fresh inflows even as broader cryptocurrency prices slipped. The flow shift matters because ETF purchases are often treated as a barometer for US institutional sentiment toward major digital assets.

Key takeaways

• Spot Ether ETFs pulled $48 million in net outflows on Wednesday, ending 12 consecutive trading days of inflows.
• Spot XRP ETFs recorded $7.2 million in net outflows, ending an 11-session inflow streak that added about $170 million.
• Ether’s largest products led withdrawals, with BlackRock’s iShares Ethereum Trust (ETHA) down $53.4 million on the day.
• Bitcoin ETFs saw inflows of $101.2 million after a prior day of net outflows.
