Altcoin ETFs ‘Boom’ – XRP Leads With $935M Inflow Since Debut
Ripple XRP spot ETFs have attracted more than $900 million in cumulative institutional capital since their launch last month. The move signals capital rotation amid Bitcoin’s turbulence and arbitrage unwind.
Particularly, XRP has the most significant altcoin ETF debut to date, with $38.04 million in a single day inflow from four funds on Monday.
Besides, spot Solana ETFs posted $1.18M net inflows in a single day, solely from Fidelity’s FSOL fund. The altcoin witnessed a cumulative net inflow of $640.06 million, since its debut on October 28.
Per CoinMarketCap data, XRP showed a significant surge at the start of December, reaching a peak of $2.20. However, the altcoin has dropped 1.54% to $2.05 over the past 24 hours, signalling bearish momentum. XRP is trading at $2.06 at the time of writing.
Meanwhile, Solana has risen to nearly 5% in the past week, trading at $133.16 at press time.
ETF Trajectory for Next Year
Bitwise Asset Management executive Katherine Dowling told DL News that the crypto ETF sector will continue to boom.
“It is a good starter kit for many investors to gain exposure,” said Dowling, adding that altcoin funds such as Solana and XRP “have promising fundamentals,” pushing the prices to go further.
Additionally, Bitfinex analysts view this as a healthy, tactical rebalancing. They told Cryptonews, “the spot ETF channel remains intact.”
Speaking about Bitcoin’s long-term outlook, they said that the structural thesis remains firm.
“As more large allocators use ETF wrappers as entry points, Bitcoin’s path towards a regulated store-of-value role continues, meaning that future inflows can become deeper and more stable.”
