If you're still treating every crypto ETF as one big blob, stop now. That lazy glance at the weekly net number is how traders keep selling the wrong thing at the wrong time.
Last week's $70.7M net outflow looked like another round of institutions heading for the exits, and plenty of people dumped across the board because of it. They missed the actual rotation happening underneath.
The headline hid a pretty sharp split. $BTC ETFs still managed a modest +$6.1M for the week then ripped $433M in on Friday as Bitcoin reclaimed $80K. $SOL was the real winner, pulling in $60.7M with BSOL alone grabbing $58.7M, basically 97% of the entire Solana category. $ETH stayed the weak link and leaked $140.6M even after a decent Friday bounce. Hyperliquid even snuck in a small +$3.1M.
This feels a lot like those earlier stretches where Ethereum lagged while capital rotated into Bitcoin and the higher-beta names first. Institutions aren't leaving crypto. They're just getting a lot pickier about which horse they want to ride.
Anyone else seeing this rotation out of $ETH into $SOL and $BTC, or is it just another fake-out before the next dump?
