The sell off is due to investor nervousness following the US presidential inauguration and ongoing uncertainty around trade tariffs, inflation and monetary policy. CoinShares’ head of research, James Butterfill said: “caution is the order of the day in the market”.
Bitcoin ETPs were the biggest losers while altcoins like XRP, Solana and Ethereum saw some inflows.
Bitcoin ETFs Lead Crypto ETP Declines
Bitcoin ETFs recorded a staggering $571 million in outflows last week, making it the hardest-hit digital asset.
In contrast, altcoin ETPs showed resilience, with several recording inflows.
XRP ETPs led the pack with $38 million in inflows, continuing a strong trend since November 2024.
Since November, XRP investment products have attracted $819 million in inflows, as investors speculate that the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) may drop its lawsuit against Ripple and approve a spot XRP ETF.
Other altcoin ETPs also saw notable inflows:
Solana (SOL): $8.9 million
Ethereum (ETH): $3.7 million
Sui (SUI): $1.5 million
Institutional Outflows: BlackRock and Grayscale Hit Hard
Institutional crypto investment products also faced headwinds last week, with some of the biggest names experiencing losses:
BlackRock’s iShares ETFs recorded rare losses of $22 million.
Grayscale Investments led the outflows with $170 million.
Fidelity Digital Assets saw $166 million withdrawn.
ProShares ETFs bucked the trend, posting $38 million in inflows.
Geographically the US was the biggest loser with $560m of crypto ETP outflows. But Europe was the opposite with Germany and Switzerland seeing inflows of $30.5m and $15.8m respectively.
