Crypto ETPs See $47M Inflows Amid Bitcoin Sell-Off: What This Means for the Market

  • Crypto ETPs saw $47 million in inflows last week, with Bitcoin remaining the top performer despite a sell-off, while Ethereum experienced large outflows due to a tech sell-off.
  • XRP saw significant gains driven by legal optimism, and altcoins like Aave, Stellar, and Polkadot also attracted investments.

The cryptocurrency exchange-traded product (ETP) market experienced a mixed week, with $47 million in net inflows recorded despite significant sell-offs in Bitcoin investment products. This trend highlights how macroeconomic factors and market sentiment are influencing the evolving crypto landscape.

Bitcoin: Still the Top Performer Despite Sell-Offs

Bitcoin (BTC), the flagship cryptocurrency, demonstrated resilience, drawing $213 million in inflows for the week of January 6-10, 2025. Year-to-date, Bitcoin continues to shine as the best-performing digital asset, with cumulative inflows of $799 million. However, the recent sell-off saw assets under management (AUM) in Bitcoin ETPs dip by 3.5%, from $130 billion to $125.4 billion.

The sell-off was triggered by the release of US Federal Reserve minutes and strong macroeconomic data, which suggested a more hawkish monetary policy. According to CoinShares’ James Butterfill, the market’s focus is now shifting back to economic fundamentals post-US election.

Ethereum Faces Outflows, XRP Gains Momentum

Ethereum (ETH), often regarded as the second-most prominent digital asset, faced significant challenges, with outflows totaling $256 million last week. This downturn wasn’t attributed to Ethereum-specific concerns but rather to a broader tech sell-off, as noted by Butterfill.

In contrast, XRP witnessed substantial inflows of $41 million, driven by optimism around legal developments in the ongoing SEC versus Ripple case. The heightened investor confidence reflects anticipation around the January 15 appeal deadline faced by the SEC, signaling that political and legal factors heavily influence XRP’s market dynamics.

Altcoins and Geopolitical Insights

Beyond Bitcoin and Ethereum, altcoins such as Aave, Stellar, and Polkadot showed resilience despite underwhelming price performance, attracting inflows of $2.9 million, $2.7 million, and $1.6 million, respectively. These inflows indicate growing investor interest in diversifying portfolios with promising smaller assets.

Geopolitically, Switzerland led the outflows with $85 million, followed by Hong Kong and Sweden. Conversely, the US remained a dominant player, contributing $79 million in inflows, while Germany and Canada recorded $52 million and $37 million in inflows, respectively.

What Lies Ahead?

The interplay between macroeconomic conditions, regulatory developments, and market trends will likely dictate crypto ETP flows in the coming weeks. With Bitcoin holding strong and altcoins gaining traction, the market’s future appears dynamic yet uncertain, offering both challenges and opportunities for investors.

As the crypto sector evolves, staying informed and agile will be key for those navigating this high-stakes market.
