Institutional money continued to favor crypto exchange-traded funds, though the pace was more measured than in earlier sessions. Spot bitcoin ETFs recorded $115.17 million in net inflows, extending their positive streak to a third consecutive day. Ether ETFs also moved back into the green with $57.01 million in fresh capital, while activity in altcoin-linked products was mixed: solana ETFs posted a small gain and XRP ETFs were effectively inactive for the day.
Bitcoin ETFs stay positive for a third straight session
The latest session showed that demand for regulated bitcoin exposure remained intact even as inflows moderated from previous highs. The day’s net inflow of $115.17 million was heavily concentrated in a small number of funds, with BlackRock’s IBIT once again doing most of the lifting. IBIT attracted $115.26 million, effectively accounting for nearly all of the session’s positive net movement.
Other funds also contributed to the inflow side. Fidelity’s FBTC added $15.37 million, while Grayscale’s Bitcoin Mini Trust brought in another $5 million. On the redemption side, Grayscale’s GBTC saw $15.97 million leave the fund, and VanEck’s HODL recorded $4.49 million in outflows. Even with these withdrawals, inflows comfortably outpaced redemptions for the day.
Trading activity in bitcoin ETFs reached $2.73 billion, underscoring the segment’s continued depth and liquidity. Total net assets rose to $90.89 billion, and cumulative inflows for the week climbed to $533 million. The figures suggest that, despite day-to-day fluctuations, institutional appetite for bitcoin ETF exposure remains resilient.
Ether ETFs return to positive territory
Ether funds also delivered a constructive session. Spot ether ETFs posted $57.01 million in net inflows, signaling a rebound after weaker recent activity. Unlike bitcoin products, which saw a mix of inflows and outflows across issuers, ether ETFs showed a cleaner pattern of demand, with no fund reporting redemptions during the session.
Fidelity’s FETH led ether ETF inflows with $19.13 million. Grayscale’s Ether Mini Trust followed closely at $19.08 million, while BlackRock’s ETHA contributed $18.80 million. The relatively balanced inflow distribution across these three products indicates that demand for ether exposure was not isolated to a single issuer.
Ether ETF trading volume came in at $660.71 million, and total net assets rose to $11.85 billion. While still far smaller than bitcoin’s ETF market, the segment’s return to net inflows may be viewed as a sign that investor interest in ether is stabilizing again within the broader regulated crypto investment landscape.
XRP ETFs go quiet, but longer-term demand remains notable
Elsewhere in the crypto ETF market, XRP-linked products recorded no trading activity during the day. As a result, net assets were unchanged at $985.73 million. On the surface, the lack of movement stood in contrast to the positive flows seen in bitcoin and ether products, but the broader context suggests that investor interest in XRP exposure has not disappeared.
According to Bloomberg Intelligence ETF analyst James Seyffart, spot XRP ETFs have accumulated roughly $1.4 billion in cumulative inflows since launch, even as the underlying asset has gone through periods of volatility. Bloomberg Intelligence data further showed cumulative inflows growing from about $150 million in November 2025 to roughly $1.44 billion by early March 2026. That trend highlights ongoing demand for regulated XRP exposure, even if individual sessions can be inactive.
Solana ETFs post only modest gains
Solana ETF activity was comparatively subdued but still positive overall. The category registered a net inflow of $1.66 million. Bitwise’s BSOL led the way with $3.15 million in inflows, while Grayscale’s GSOL experienced a $1.49 million outflow. The resulting net gain was small, but it kept solana products in positive territory for the session.
Total trading activity in solana ETFs reached $34.08 million, and net assets ended the day at $829.55 million. Compared with bitcoin and ether ETFs, the market remains much smaller, yet the figures suggest there is still selective investor interest in altcoin exposure through listed investment products.
A market defined by selective institutional allocation
Taken together, the day’s flows reinforce a familiar pattern in the crypto ETF space: institutional capital is still entering the market, but it is doing so selectively. Bitcoin remains the dominant destination for new money, ether has shown signs of renewed momentum, solana is attracting limited but positive interest, and XRP experienced a quiet session despite strong cumulative inflow data.
The concentration of demand in flagship products such as IBIT, alongside the rebound in major ether funds, points to a market that continues to favor liquidity, scale, and issuer credibility. At the same time, the mixed picture in altcoin ETFs shows that investors are not treating all crypto exposures equally. For market participants, future ETF flow data will remain an important signal for gauging institutional sentiment across the digital asset sector.
