U.S. spot crypto exchange-traded products recorded about $70.7 million in combined net outflows during the Sep. 14–18 trading week, as withdrawals from Ether funds outweighed demand for Bitcoin, Solana, and Hyperliquid products.
Summary
- Spot Bitcoin ETFs ended the week with a modest $6.1 million net inflow after attracting $433 million on Friday.
- Spot Ether ETFs lost about $140.6 million, extending their weaker flow trend despite a $143.7 million Friday rebound.
- Solana ETFs took in $60.7 million, led by $47.6 million entering Bitwise’s BSOL on Friday.
- Hyperliquid ETFs recorded $3.1 million in weekly net inflows after three positive sessions offset Tuesday’s withdrawals.
- The flows came during a volatile week in which the Federal Reserve raised interest rates by 25 basis points, and Bitcoin later reclaimed $80,000.
According to data from Farside Investors, the four U.S. crypto ETF categories tracked by the firm diverged sharply during the week. Bitcoin products recovered from $746.3 million of combined withdrawals on Tuesday and Wednesday, while Ether ETFs failed to erase their midweek losses.
Solana funds drew fresh capital in four of the five sessions, including their strongest day of the week on Friday. Hyperliquid products also finished positive, although their $3.1 million weekly gain remained small compared with flows into the larger crypto funds.
Bitcoin ETFs erase most weekly losses with $433M Friday inflow
U.S. spot Bitcoin ETFs posted a net inflow of $6.1 million for the week after two large redemption days nearly pushed the group to a steep weekly loss.
The funds began with a $159.9 million inflow on Monday before losing $450.4 million on Tuesday and $295.9 million on Wednesday. Investors returned on Thursday with $159.5 million, followed by $433 million on Friday, the largest daily inflow of the week.
BlackRock’s IBIT led the weekly rankings with $120.6 million in net inflows. Fidelity’s FBTC followed with $79.9 million after drawing $310.7 million on Friday, the biggest single-fund inflow recorded that day.
Morgan Stanley’s MSBT added $13.2 million, while Franklin Templeton’s EZBC received $4.6 million. The gains were partly offset by $141.9 million in withdrawals from ARK 21Shares’ ARKB and $62.3 million from Grayscale’s GBTC. Bitwise’s BITB lost $2.7 million, and VanEck’s HODL shed $5.3 million.
The late reversal coincided with Bitcoin’s return above $80,000 on Friday. The asset had come under pressure earlier in the week as the Federal Reserve raised its target rate by 25 basis points to 3.75%–4.00%, its first increase in more than three years. Bitcoin later rallied as oil prices eased and crypto-linked stocks recovered.
Ether ETFs post $140.6M weekly outflow
U.S. spot Ether ETFs recorded approximately $140.6 million in net withdrawals, making Ether the weakest of the four crypto ETF categories covered by Farside.
The group attracted $121.1 million on Monday but lost $142 million on Tuesday, $224.1 million on Wednesday and $39.3 million on Thursday. A $143.7 million Friday inflow reduced the weekly deficit without fully reversing it.
BlackRock’s ETHA accounted for a net weekly outflow of $56.1 million despite taking in $114.3 million on Friday. Fidelity’s FETH lost $25.9 million, while Bitwise’s ETHW shed $33.1 million.
Grayscale’s ETHE posted $31.4 million in withdrawals. VanEck’s ETHV lost $10.3 million, 21Shares’ TETH shed $1.9 million, and Invesco’s QETH recorded a $5.4 million outflow.
BlackRock’s ETHB and Grayscale’s lower-fee ETH fund moved in the opposite direction, taking in $7 million and $16.2 million, respectively. Farside’s daily totals contain rounded fund-level figures, which can produce small differences when individual entries are added.
Ether’s negative weekly result widened the gap with Bitcoin products. Bitcoin ETFs recovered nearly all of their midweek redemptions, while the Friday demand for Ether funds covered only part of the $405.4 million withdrawn across the prior three sessions.
Solana ETFs draw $60.7M as BSOL leads Friday demand
Farside’s Solana ETF data showed $60.7 million in net inflows for the week, the strongest total among the four tracked crypto assets.
Solana funds received $11 million on Monday, $1.3 million on Tuesday and $800,000 on Wednesday. Thursday ended with no net movement before Friday’s inflow reached $47.6 million.
Bitwise’s BSOL generated $58.7 million of the weekly total. Grayscale’s GSOL contributed a net $2 million after a $3.9 million Monday inflow was partly offset by a $1.9 million withdrawal on Wednesday.
The remaining Solana products reported no net flows during the week. Friday’s $47.6 million allocation went entirely to BSOL, giving the Bitwise fund almost 97% of the category’s weekly net intake.
Hyperliquid ETFs add $3.1M during mixed week
Hyperliquid ETFs ended the week with $3.1 million in net inflows. The products recorded no movement on Monday, followed by a $3.9 million outflow from Bitwise’s BHYP on Tuesday.
Flows turned positive during the rest of the week. 21Shares’ HYPG received $1.7 million on Wednesday, while Thursday brought $1.9 million into BHYP and $2.4 million into 21Shares’ THYP. BHYP added another $1 million on Friday.
The combined weekly data left Bitcoin funds close to flat, Ether products in net redemptions and the two smaller altcoin categories positive. Across all four categories, approximately $70.7 million exited on a net basis, with the $140.6 million Ether outflow exceeding the combined inflows into Bitcoin, Solana and Hyperliquid funds.
