Key Highlights
- Bitcoin ETFs ended a 10-day outflow streak, attracting $221.72 million in fresh inflows, the biggest daily gain since May 5.
- Ether, XRP, Solana, and HYPE ETFs also recorded positive inflows, showing that investors returned to several major crypto funds, not just Bitcoin.
- The broad recovery signals improving investor confidence, although crypto ETFs are still recovering from heavy outflows recorded throughout June.
Crypto exchange-traded funds (ETFs) made a strong comeback on Thursday as investors returned to Bitcoin as well as other digital asset funds, including Ether, XRP, and Solana, after weeks of pulling money out of the market.
The new inflows ended a difficult period for crypto ETFs, with Bitcoin leading the recovery. According to data from SosoValue, Bitcoin ETFs recorded $221.72 million in net inflows, ending a 10-day streak of outflows.
This was the strongest daily inflow for Bitcoin ETFs since May 5. The return of new money suggests that investors were once again willing to put money into funds after several days of selling pressure.
Although one day does not change the market completely, it marked an important step for Bitcoin ETFs after a long period of losses.
Fidelity leads the Bitcoin ETF recovery
Fidelity’s FBTC attracted the largest amount of new money with $165.96 million in inflows. Ark & 21Shares’ ARKB followed with $91.84 million, while VanEck’s HODL added $4.35 million.
BlackRock’s IBIT was the only Bitcoin ETF that recorded an outflow, losing $40.43 million. Still, the total amount of money flowing into the other Bitcoin ETFs was enough to keep the overall category in positive territory. Bitcoin ETFs recorded $2.13 billion in trading volume during the day, while their combined net assets stood at $74.37 billion.
Ether ETFs also turn positive
Meanwhile, investors were not only buying Bitcoin-related funds. Ethereum investment products also returned to positive territory, recording $29.08 million in net inflows.
BlackRock’s ETHA led the Ether ETF market with $29.74 million in fresh investment, while VanEck’s ETHV added $1.24 million and Fidelity’s FETH attracted $846,460.
Grayscale’s ETHE was the only Ether ETF to post an outflow, losing $2.75 million. By the end of the session, Ether ETFs had recorded $669.66 million in trading volume and held $9.02 billion in total net assets.
Ether still faces a tough road ahead
Despite Thursday’s improvement, the Ether ETF market is still facing challenges. In an X post, Bloomberg ETF analyst James Seyffart said total cumulative flows into U.S. spot Ether ETFs have dropped to $10.7 billion.
According to him, about $4.25 billion has been left in these funds since October, including around $1.1 billion over the past six weeks. He also pointed out that many investors are still holding losses because the average purchase price for Ether ETF investors is just under $3,400, while Ether recently traded around $1,700.
However, the positive mood spread beyond Bitcoin and Ether. XRP ETFs recorded $6.55 million in net inflows, with all of the new money going into Bitwise’s XRP ETF. The fund category recorded $12.74 million in trading volume and ended the day with $987.91 million in net assets.
XRP, Solana, and HYPE join the recovery
Other digital asset funds also finished the day in positive territory. HYPE ETFs added $2.24 million, mainly through Bitwise’s BHYP, while Solana ETFs recorded $2.20 million in net inflows, led by Bitwise’s BSOL.
HYPE ETFs finished the day with $336.41 million in net assets after recording $25.98 million in trading volume. Solana ETFs recorded $77.71 million in trading volume and closed with $936.01 million in net assets.
Broader context
The broad recovery was notable because every major crypto ETF category finished the day with positive inflows. After weeks of investors taking money out of these funds, Thursday brought a different picture.
While the gains were not enough to recover everything that was lost during June, they showed that buyers had started returning to the market.
Instead of only Bitcoin attracting attention, investors also put fresh money into Ether, XRP, Solana, and HYPE ETFs, making it one of the strongest sessions for the crypto ETF market in recent weeks.
