XRP And SOL Investment Products Defy Crypto Slump As Billions Flow As Bitcoin Bleeds

While Bitcoin and Ethereum struggle, XRP and Solana quietly attract billions.

Investor interest has been strong for XRP and SOL in the past week, as the two assets have generated the highest revenue among crypto products. XRP attracted 70.2 million dollars, Solana added 7.5 million dollars. This trend has continued since the ETFs launched in the US in mid-October, bringing total inflows to $1.14 billion for XRP and $1.34 billion for Solana.

These benefits come despite widespread negative sentiment in the crypto market.

Bitcoin and Ethereum lose

According to CoinShares' Digital Asset Fund Flows weekly report, Bitcoin and Ethereum moved in opposite directions, showing higher flows. Last week, Bitcoin lost $443 million, while Ethereum lost $59.5 million. Since the ETF's inception, Bitcoin and Ethereum have recorded $2.8 billion and $1.6 billion in outflows, respectively. Multi-asset crypto funds fell by $27.2 million, although Chainlink attracted $2.1 million.

Highlighting, digital asset investment products continued to experience selling pressure last week and recorded $446 million in spending. This brings total withdrawals to $3.2 billion since the sharp decline in prices on October 10, as investor confidence has not fully recovered. While recent flows look weak, the year-to-date data tells a more balanced story. Total revenue for the year reached $46.3 billion, compared to $48.7 billion for the same period in 2024.

However, assets under management have only increased by 10% this year. This means that despite a steady stream of income, many investors have not seen meaningful returns once market performance is taken into account.

Most regions saw strong sales activity, particularly in the United States, where $460 million was spent on digital asset products. Switzerland posted a modest loss of $14.2 million. In addition, Sweden, Canada, and Brazil invested $3.7 million, $2.9 million, and $1 million, respectively.

Germany was the standout, adding $35.7 million over the same period. Hong Kong settled at a moderate price of $0.9 million. With $248 million recorded so far this month, Germany now leads the regional total due to recent market weakness.
