On December 11, U.S.-listed spot crypto ETFs showed a mixed performance. The data released during the day indicated that rather than a one-directional trend, selective movements dominated the market. While Bitcoin and Ethereum ETFs recorded net outflows, investor interest continued in Solana and XRP, highlighting increasingly asset-specific divergence in the crypto ETF space. This trend suggests that institutional investors are acting more cautiously and selectively in their portfolio allocations.
Million-Dollar Net Outflows From Spot Bitcoin ETFs
U.S. spot Bitcoin ETFs recorded a total net outflow of $77.34 million on December 11. The largest outflow of the day came from Fidelity’s FBTC ETF, which alone saw $104 million in net withdrawals, leading the Bitcoin ETF outflows.
These figures indicate a short-term cautious stance toward Bitcoin, with some institutional investors reducing exposure. However, the data does not point to a full risk-off environment; rather, it reflects portfolio rebalancing and risk management activity.
Million-Dollar Outflows in Ethereum Spot ETFs
A similar pattern emerged for Ethereum ETFs. On December 11, spot Ethereum ETFs recorded total net outflows of $42.37 million, signaling a cautious short-term outlook among investors. That said, there was a notable exception: 21Shares’ TETH ETF stood out as the only Ethereum spot ETF to record net inflows on the day. This suggests that despite the broader outflow trend, selective buying continues in certain funds and some investor groups have not fully lost confidence in Ethereum.
Million-Dollar Net Inflows Into Solana Spot ETFs
Solana ETFs showed a positive performance. On December 11, Solana spot ETFs recorded $11.02 million in net inflows, making SOL one of the day’s standout assets.
These inflows indicate sustained institutional interest in the Solana ecosystem and show that investors continue to include SOL as a stable component of portfolio diversification strategies. The steady inflows are closely linked to Solana’s ecosystem growth, expanding use cases, and confidence in its high-performance blockchain infrastructure—reinforcing Solana’s position as an alternative growth asset for institutional investors.
Strong Inflows Into XRP Spot ETFs
One of the most striking data points of the day came from XRP ETFs. On December 11, XRP spot ETFs recorded $16.42 million in net inflows, delivering a strong performance. These inflows demonstrate that investors continue to rotate into assets beyond Bitcoin and Ethereum, with XRP increasingly finding a place in institutional portfolios. The activity in XRP ETFs is viewed as a key signal that interest in alternative crypto assets remains strong.
Assessment
The December 11 data clearly shows asset-level divergence in the U.S. spot crypto ETF market. While Bitcoin and Ethereum ETFs experienced outflows, inflows into Solana and XRP ETFs highlight a more selective and balanced investment approach. In the coming days, macroeconomic developments and market liquidity are expected to remain key drivers influencing the direction of ETF flows.
