Crypto ETFs Take In $2.07 Billion for the Week, Led by Bitcoin and Ether

Bitcoin ETFs Add $924.48M as Ether Funds Draw $824.42M

Capital inflows into crypto exchange-traded funds continued for another week, and this time the demand reached a broader share of the market.

Bitcoin and ether products remained the largest recipients of ETF money, extending their streaks of gains through Thursday. However, the week's most notable development came further down the market, where solana, $XRP and $HYPE funds posted positive flows in every single trading session.

Bitcoin ETFs began the week with $337.56 million in inflows on Monday and added $314.37 million on Tuesday. Inflows continued at $232.12 million on Wednesday and $242.24 million on Thursday, lifting combined assets above $100 billion for the first time in several weeks.

Friday brought the run to an end. A withdrawal of $201.81 million closed out a nine-session inflow streak worth roughly $3 billion, leaving the weekly total at $924.48 million.

Among individual funds, BlackRock's IBIT led with $938.3 million in weekly inflows. Grayscale's Bitcoin Mini Trust added $81.9 million, Fidelity's FBTC brought in $62 million and Morgan Stanley's MSBT gained $25.3 million.

Outflows came mainly from ARK 21Shares' ARKB, which shed $85.2 million, along with Grayscale's GBTC at $77.6 million and Bitwise's BITB at $16 million.

Ether ETFs showed even stronger momentum. Daily inflows climbed from $115.57 million on Monday to $179.80 million on Tuesday, $192.35 million on Wednesday and $234.51 million on Thursday. A further $102 million arrived on Friday, taking the weekly total to $824.42 million.

The macroeconomic backdrop remained sensitive to interest-rate expectations. Second-quarter U.S. GDP grew at a 1.5% annualized pace, while July core PCE inflation held at 3.3% year over year. Personal spending rose 0.2% during the month, keeping inflation data and Federal Reserve policy front and center in investors' thinking. Macro data of this kind tends to shape crypto ETF flows because expectations about the direction of interest rates influence appetite for risk assets, and slower growth alongside sticky inflation leaves the policy path less settled.

Solana, $XRP and $HYPE Become Persistent Buyers' Markets

The breadth of altcoin ETF demand was on display in the weekly inflows for solana, $XRP and $HYPE products.

Solana ETFs attracted $153.87 million, more than five times the previous week's $28.34 million and the second-largest weekly inflow since the products launched. Flows remained positive across all five sessions, while weekly turnover more than doubled to roughly $699 million. SOL ended the week near $103.41, about 14% higher than the prior week.

$XRP ETFs followed with $110.49 million in inflows, up from $39.78 million a week earlier. Positive creations occurred every day, and weekly trading turnover climbed to approximately $363 million.

$HYPE showed an even sharper acceleration. Weekly inflows reached $56.86 million after just $3.89 million in the previous period, with five consecutive positive sessions. Assets in the funds finished near $439 million.

That consistency marks a meaningful milestone for the altcoin ETF market. Earlier weekly gains frequently relied on one or two strong sessions, whereas this week solana, $XRP and $HYPE drew fresh capital every day from Monday through Friday. The expansion of fund choices itself is part of the story: spot ETFs for altcoins are a relatively recent addition to U.S. markets compared with bitcoin and ether products, so a full week of uninterrupted creations across three separate altcoin lineups represents an early test of whether these newer vehicles can sustain institutional interest.

With two consecutive weeks above $2 billion in combined crypto ETF inflows, institutional demand is running at one of its strongest stretches of the year. The latest flows also indicate that investors are increasingly willing to spread their allocations beyond bitcoin and ether. Whether that breadth holds in coming weeks — and whether Friday's bitcoin outflow proves a one-day pause or the start of a shift — will be visible in the next round of daily flow data.
