Bitcoin (BTC) is still struggling to recover from the downward trend that began in October, and the latest sharp sell-off pushed it down to levels around $60,000.

Altcoins also experienced significant losses along with Bitcoin’s decline, with Ethereum (ETH) falling below $2,000.

While the downward trend in prices continues, the situation in ETFs remains mixed.

Bitcoin, Ethereum, and XRP ETFs Seen to Exit!

According to SoSoValue data, Bitcoin, Ethereum, and XRP ETFs experienced net outflows, while Solana (SOL) ETFs saw net inflows.

Accordingly, a net outflow of $133.3 million was observed in US spot Bitcoin ETFs.

Daily flows in Bitcoin ETFs were as follows: “BlackRock (IBIT) fund experienced outflows of $84.2 million and Fidelity (FBTC) fund experienced outflows of $49.1 million. In contrast, Bitwise (BITB), Ark Invest (ARKB), Franklin (EZBC), VanEck (HODL), Grayscale (GBTC), Grayscale (Mini BTC), Valkyrie (BRRR), and Invesco (BTCO) fund recorded 0 inflows.”

According to SoSoValue data, spot Ethereum ETFs saw a net outflow of $41.8 million.

Fund flows in Ethereum ETFs were as follows: “BlackRock (ETHA) fund experienced outflows of $29.9 million, Fidelity (FETH) fund outflows of $8.2 million, and Invesco (QETH) fund outflows of $3.7 million. In contrast, VanEck (ETHV), Grayscale (ETHE), Grayscale Mini Trust (ETH), Bitwise (ETHW), 21Shares (TETH), and Franklin Templeton (EZET) funds recorded 0 inflows.”

The outflows from ETH ETFs coincide with Ethereum’s price trading below $2,000 and its struggle to gain momentum despite general expectations of interest rate cuts later in the year.

XRP ETFs also fell into negative territory, recording a daily outflow of $2.2 million.

The Situation is Different in Solana!

While Bitcoin, Ethereum, and XRP ETFs experienced outflows, Solana (SOL) stood out from the rest.

According to SoSoValue data, US spot SOL ETFs recorded net inflows of $2.4 million, bringing total inflows to approximately $880 million.

Bitwise’s BSOL fund led the way with a new capital injection of $1.5 million.

What Does It Mean?

This situation shows that some investors are changing their positions rather than exiting the crypto markets entirely.

According to experts, the difference between Bitcoin and Ethereum, XRP, and Solana ETFs reflects a shift in risk preferences rather than a complete loss of confidence in digital assets. Capital is still moving within the crypto sector, with different use cases or other altcoins being preferred.

Jensen Huang's sudden resignation shrouded in suspicion: Did the White House secretly intervene? Is a return possible in the future?

Only a few days separated Jensen Huang’s strong support from the board last Sunday and his late-night resignation on Wednesday. Multiple reports of the Wednesday night Nvidia board meeting were co-authored by Washington-based journalists—who do not typically cover Nvidia—fueling rumors of "White House pressure and information leaks." Huang’s unique value lies in leveraging his personal reputation to secure the supply chain and drive the implementation of technological roadmaps, making him difficult to replace. Some analysts note that, drawing on examples such as Steve Jobs’ return to Apple, it is possible that Huang may come back in the future.
