The first week of February delivered sharp mood swings across crypto ETFs, with heavy selling early in the week giving way to late rebounds that ultimately fell short of reversing broader losses.
Bitcoin spot ETFs closed the Feb. 2–6 window with a net outflow of -$318 million, despite a powerful late-week bounce. Blackrock’s IBIT oscillated violently, absorbing large outflows midweek before rebounding strongly on Friday, finishing the week with a -$115.14 million drawdown.
Fidelity’s FBTC bore sustained pressure, logging heavy redemptions across multiple sessions and ending the week deeply negative with a -$166.73 million exit. Grayscale’s GBTC (-$173.82 million) contributed a sizable weekly outflow of -$173.82 million, although its Bitcoin Mini Trust finished modestly positive with $18.39 million net inflow.
Bitwise’s BITB and Ark & 21Shares’ ARKB also remained net sellers, while smaller allocations into Invesco’s BTCO and Wisdomtree’s BTCW provided only marginal relief. Friday’s $371 million inflow underscored renewed dip-buying interest, but it wasn’t enough to offset earlier damage in the week.
Ether spot ETFs recorded -$166 million in net weekly outflows, extending their fragile trend. Blackrock’s ETHA (-$152.16 million) led the drawdowns with consistent redemptions, firmly anchoring ether ETF weakness. Fidelity’s FETH (-$59.89 million) added meaningful losses, particularly midweek.
Grayscale’s ETHE (-$18.83 million) and Ether Mini Trust ($32.97 million) saw mixed flows, with brief inflows unable to counter persistent selling. Smaller products like Bitwise’s ETHW($16.79 million), Vaneck’s ETHV ($8.19 million), and Invesco’s QETH ($7.13 million) provided intermittent support but lacked scale, as subdued conviction remained around ether exposure.
Three consecutive weekly outflows for ether ETFs.
XRP spot ETFs stood apart as the clear winner, posting $39 million in net weekly inflows. Franklin’s XRPZ ($20.50 million) and Bitwise’s XRP ($20.01 million) consistently attracted capital throughout the week, while Canary’s XRPC ($3.44 million) added steady secondary support. Grayscale’s GXRP briefly saw redemptions but failed to derail the broader trend. XRP’s resilience marked a strong rebound from last week’s net outflows.
Solana spot ETFs ended the week with -$8.9 million in net outflows, despite pockets of buying. Bitwise’s BSOL (-$8.61 million) saw notable midweek redemptions, partially offset by inflows into Fidelity’s FSOL ($5.19 million). Grayscale’s GSOL leaned negative, while smaller products such as Vaneck’s VSOL, Franklin’s SOEZ, and 21Shares’ TSOL fluctuated without establishing momentum.
