Investors bolster Ethereum positions following crypto ETP outflows
- Cryptocurrency ETPs lose $513 million in a week
- Investors Increase Ethereum Positions After Price Pullback
- Concentrated exits in the US contrast with entries in Europe
Cryptocurrency investment products saw global net outflows of approximately $513 million last week, according to CoinShares data Despite the negative result, Ethereum investors took advantage of the weakening asset price to increase their positions, in contrast to the significant outflows from Bitcoin-based funds.
James Butterfill, head of research at CoinShares, stated that "net outflows following this event now total $668 million, suggesting that investors in the ETP space shrugged off this event, while on-chain investors were more pessimistic." He also noted that trading volumes for digital asset products remained high, reaching $51 billion this week—nearly double the average for 2025.
Outflows were mostly observed in the United States, totaling US$621 million, while funds in Germany, Switzerland, and Canada recorded net inflows of US$59,3 million, US$48 million, and US$42,3 million, respectively. This movement reflects a divergence between US and European investors regarding their exposure to crypto assets.
US spot Bitcoin ETPs were the hardest hit, racking up $1,2 billion in outflows—the second-largest since the funds launched in 2024. Meanwhile, Ethereum-backed funds saw $205 million in net inflows, driven primarily by leveraged products that totaled $457 million.
“Ethereum investors bought the dip, offset by Bitcoin outflows,”
Butterfill noted, indicating a perception of opportunity among ETH holders.
The report also points out that spot Ethereum ETFs in the United States followed a different trajectory, with weekly outflows of approximately $311,8 million. Products linked to Solana and XRP, on the other hand, saw an increase in inflows, with $156 million and $73,9 million in inflows, respectively—reflecting expectations surrounding future ETF launches for these assets.
In the week analyzed, Bitcoin and Ethereum fell by around 5,8% and 6,3%, respectively, due to market volatility and capital rotation between different cryptocurrency investment products.
