In Ethereum-based ETFs, a capital outflow was also observed during the week. Specifically, the main losses were recorded in:

  • ETHA – $558.98 million;
  • ETHE – $31.82 million;

  • ETHW – $14.19 million;
  • EZET – $4.76 million;

Despite the capital outflow from major cryptocurrency ETFs, the sector of new spot Solana ETFs is showing a steady inflow of funds. For 19 consecutive days, these funds have attracted investments, with approximately $128 million received in the last week alone.

The capital outflow from spot Bitcoin and Ethereum ETFs is likely driven by market turbulence. Furthermore, the rebalancing of institutional investors’ portfolios may also be influencing the situation.

Thus, the main factors contributing to the decline in investments in cryptocurrency ETFs are market volatility and changes in the strategies of institutional players. In contrast, Solana ETFs remain attractive to investors, demonstrating positive trends in fund attraction.
