The crypto market remained relatively calm as investors waited for this week’s US inflation data. The global crypto market capitalization stood at $2.18 trillion, down 0.25% over 24 hours, while the CMC20 index slipped 0.05% to $130.64.
Market liquidations also declined, reaching $162.39 million, down 17.29% from the previous day. Bitcoin traded below $64,000, Ethereum moved slightly higher, and XRP hovered around the $1 level. This mixed market performance was also reflected in crypto ETF flows, with investors remaining cautious and closely watching upcoming economic signals before making larger moves.
Bitcoin ETF News: IBIT Leads Inflows
Bitcoin traded at approximately $63,900.99, down 0.22%, with a market capitalization near $1.27 trillion. According to SoSoValue, US spot Bitcoin ETFs recorded a $4.89 million net inflow. Cumulative net inflows reached $52.04 billion, while total net assets stood at $77.46 billion.
BlackRock’s IBIT led with a $50.20 million inflow. Fidelity’s FBTC posted a $4.13 million outflow, while ARK 21Shares’ ARKB recorded an $11.55 million outflow. Grayscale’s GBTC, Mini Trust and Bitwise’s BITB recorded no movement.
The figures show Bitcoin ETF demand remains positive but narrow, with most buying concentrated in IBIT as investors await the upcoming inflation report.
Ethereum ETF News: Outflows Despite Rising ETH
Ethereum presented a different picture. ETH traded at $1,881.26, gaining 0.78%, while its spot ETFs experienced a combined $1.76 million net outflow.
Cumulative Ethereum ETF inflows remained at $11.44 billion, with total net assets of approximately $10.48 billion.
BlackRock’s ETHA recorded a $0.56 million inflow, but Fidelity’s FETH saw a larger $2.33 million outflow. Grayscale’s Ethereum funds, BlackRock’s ETHB and Bitwise’s ETHW recorded no net movement.
The divergence between Ethereum’s rising price and negative ETF flows is notable. However, one weak session does not necessarily signal a broader trend reversal. Investors will likely watch upcoming sessions to determine whether the outflows continue.
XRP ETF News: No Movement Across Funds
XRP traded near $1.02 as investors watched the key $1 support level. Despite the price pressure, XRP ETFs recorded no net flow during the session.
According to SoSoValue, the five XRP ETF issuers recorded a combined $0.00 flow. Cumulative net inflows remained at $1.51 billion, while total net assets stood at $943.11 million. Bitwise, Franklin, Canary, 21Shares and Grayscale recorded zero movement.
Meanwhile, XRP sentiment remains influenced by regulatory developments. Grayscale’s XRP Trust reported selling more than 103 million XRP during the first half of 2026. The delayed Senate vote on the CLARITY Act removed a potential catalyst for XRP investors.
What’s Next for Crypto ETF Flows?
Bitcoin ETF inflows remain positive but have become increasingly concentrated. Ethereum recorded a modest outflow despite ETH gaining in price, while XRP ETF activity remained completely flat.
The next major catalyst is the US CPI report. Inflation data could influence risk appetite, institutional positioning, and ETF demand across the crypto market.
Conclusion
Today’s ETF data points to a market in wait-and-see mode. Bitcoin remains in positive territory, but IBIT is carrying much of the reported demand. Ethereum’s negative flow contrasts with its price gain, while XRP continues to see no ETF movement.
Investors should watch Bitcoin ETF concentration, Ethereum’s flow direction, and XRP’s ability to hold the $1 level as the market approaches the next major economic catalyst.
