Risk appetite faded across U.S. spot crypto exchange-traded funds (ETFs) as selling pressure resurfaced and inflows dried up. Bitcoin led the pullback, ether followed, and XRP experienced a notable turning point. Only solana managed to escape the downturn, posting a small but symbolic gain.

Bitcoin ETFs logged a $486.08 million net outflow, marking the heaviest single-day exit of 2026 so far. Fidelity’s FBTC absorbed the largest hit with $247.62 million in redemptions, while Blackrock’s IBIT followed with a $129.96 million outflow. Ark & 21Shares’ ARKB and Bitwise’s BITB added further pressure, shedding $42.27 million and $39.03 million, respectively. Smaller exits were seen from Grayscale’s GBTC ($15.63 million) and Vaneck’s HODL ($11.57 million). Trading volume reached $3.30 billion, as total net assets slid to $118.36 billion.
Choppy start for bitcoin ETFs in 2026 with two days each of inflows and outflows.
Ether ETFs also reversed course, posting a $98.45 million net outflow after recent inflow momentum stalled. Grayscale’s ETHE led the retreat with a $52.05 million exit. Additional losses came from Fidelity’s FETH ($13.29 million), Grayscale’s Ether Mini Trust ($13.03 million), and Bitwise’s ETHW ($11.23 million). Blackrock’s ETHA and Vaneck’s ETHV contributed exits of $6.64 million and $4.59 million, respectively. Franklin’s EZET was the lone bright spot with a $2.38 million inflow, though it offered little relief. Total value traded stood at $1.30 billion, with net assets steady at $19.31 billion.
XRP ETFs marked a historic shift, recording their first-ever net outflow of $40.80 million. Early inflows into Bitwise’s XRP ($2.44 million), Canary’s XRPC ($2.32 million), and Grayscale’s GXRP ($1.69 million) were overwhelmed by a sharp $47.25 million exit from 21Shares’ TOXR. Trading volume reached $33.74 million, while net assets held at $1.53 billion.

Solana ETFs were the sole bright spot, closing the day with a $1.97 million inflow, entirely driven by Bitwise’s BSOL. Total value traded came in at $22.21 million, with net assets ending at $1.08 billion.
By the close, the day’s trading flow reflected a clear risk reset. Bitcoin and ether absorbed heavy profit-taking, XRP stumbled for the first time since launch, and solana quietly attracted incremental capital.
