TLDR
Bitcoin led ETP inflows this week, with Ethereum next; XRP and Solana also saw notable, but smaller, inflows per the latest CoinShares reporting.
- Bitcoin (BTC): about $522 million in weekly inflows per the CoinShares weekly report.
- Ethereum (ETH): roughly $338 million in weekly inflows per the same report.
- XRP and Solana (SOL): reported inflows ranged from about $47 million for XRP and $65 million for SOL in one source, with some coverage citing a higher XRP figure of about $245 million (Cointelegraph, finance coverage).
Deep Dive
1. Bitcoin Leads
Bitcoin-linked ETPs drew the largest weekly inflows, around $522 million, indicating continued preference for the most established asset among allocators. The same breakdown shows short-Bitcoin products saw outflows, a sign of improving sentiment toward BTC per the CoinShares weekly report.
Capital is consolidating into the highest liquidity, most institutionally accessible product suite first, which is typical in uncertain macro backdrops.
2. Ethereum Follows
Ethereum products ranked second with roughly $338 million in inflows for the week, lifting the year-to-date total above $13 billion and underscoring demand beyond BTC per the weekly report. Some day-level reads did show outflow streaks during the period, but the cumulative weekly lens still netted positive per broader coverage.
Despite choppy daily prints, weekly flows suggest institutions are maintaining or adding ETH exposure, though with more variability than BTC.
3. XRP and Solana Also Inflow
Alt majors also attracted capital. One source lists XRP at about $46.9 million and Solana at about $65 million for the week, while another report cites XRP closer to about $245 million, highlighting differences in methodology and regional aggregation (CoinShares summary via Cointelegraph, finance coverage). Separate analyses note rising early adoption in newer SOL and XRP ETPs, albeit off a smaller base compared to BTC and ETH (context).
Flows are broadening beyond BTC and ETH, but size and consistency still favor the top two. Expect higher variance in alt ETP prints as products mature and distribution deepens.
Conclusion
The majors that led ETP inflows this week were Bitcoin first and Ethereum second, with XRP and Solana contributing smaller but meaningful gains. The pattern reflects a flight to higher liquidity and access, with selective broadening into alt majors as products scale and regional distribution widens.
