Updated: Jan 01 2026- Bitcoin ETF Outflows: On the last trading day of 2025, Bitcoin ETFs experienced significant net outflows of approximately $348 million, primarily driven by redemptions from major products like IBIT, FBTC, BITB, and ARKB, indicating institutional investors' cautious approach through profit-taking and portfolio rebalancing at year-end.
- Ethereum ETF Trends: Ethereum ETFs mirrored Bitcoin's outflows with about $72 million redeemed on December 31, concentrated in larger funds such as ETHA and ETHE, suggesting investors are hesitant to increase exposure until regulatory clarity and fee competitiveness improve.
- Solana ETF Inflows: In contrast to the broader market caution, Solana-linked ETFs recorded modest net inflows of approximately $2.3 million at year-end, indicating a gradual accumulation phase rather than speculative surges, reinforcing its early adoption status.
- XRP ETF Strength: XRP spot ETFs saw net inflows of roughly 2.97 million XRP on December 31, primarily led by Franklin and Bitwise products, reflecting growing interest in XRP through regulated vehicles and potentially improved sentiment regarding its regulatory outlook.
