ETF Holdings and Market Stability

Solana spot ETFs recorded a total net inflow of $13.14 million, with all eight products posting gains. XRP ETFs saw even stronger inflows at $64 million, reflecting continued investor interest in altcoin ETFs.

These inflows indicate a rotation of funds from Bitcoin and Ethereum ETFs toward other cryptocurrency ETFs with different risk profiles. Investors appear to be diversifying positions in digital assets as year-end adjustments continue across institutional portfolios.

Despite the weekly outflows, ETF net assets remain strong, totaling $113.53 billion across all products. IBIT continues to hold the highest Bitcoin exposure at 3.85%, while FBTC and GBTC maintain smaller BTC shares at 1.01% and 0.83%, respectively.

Daily ETF price changes remained positive, ranging between 0.23% and 0.33%. The minor daily gains show ETF prices remain stable even as investors withdraw capital. Analysts report that year-end portfolio rebalancing and risk-off sentiment likely drove the outflows from Bitcoin and Ethereum ETFs.
