Last Friday Crypto ETF Fund Flows Divergence: Mainstream Assets Under Pressure, Altcoin Products Attracting Investment Against the Trend
BlockBeats News, December 8th, the cryptocurrency ETF market experienced a significant divergence last Friday: Bitcoin and Ethereum-related products saw large net outflows, while various altcoin ETFs, especially XRP ETF, continued to attract institutional funds, indicating a significant shift in fund structure. Mainstream asset outflows were noticeable:
• Bitcoin spot ETF saw a net outflow of approximately $195 million in a single day, one of the weakest performances in weeks.
• Ethereum ETF also recorded significant net outflows, ending a brief period of net inflows earlier this week.
Analysis points out that macroeconomic uncertainty (especially pending inflation data) is prompting institutions to temporarily reduce risk rather than fully retreat. Mainstream ETF trading volume is decreasing, reflecting investors' wait-and-see attitude.
In stark contrast to the pressure on BTC and ETH, XRP ETF has seen continuous net inflows for several weeks, with cumulative inflows nearing $900 million, demonstrating institutional confidence in its relative value and potential regulatory optimism continues to strengthen. Other altcoin ETFs such as Solana also saw slight net inflows, indicating that market funds have not been withdrawn but are rotating internally. As the year-end approaches and macroeconomic uncertainty rises, institutional investors no longer view the crypto market as a single risk asset but are more selective in their choices:
• Decreasing exposure to BTC and ETH, which are more susceptible to macroeconomic drag;
• Increasing allocation to altcoins with stronger momentum or clearer narratives.
Friday's ETF fund flow data highlights a new trend among institutions in a volatile environment: exiting mainstream assets without exiting the market; increasing holdings of alternative assets with higher resilience to volatility.
