XRP and Solana Investment Products Attract Fresh Capital

Market data shows XRP based funds brought in around $67.6 million in inflows during the week ending May 15, while Solana investment products attracted about $55.1 million. At the same time, Bitcoin products recorded major outflows of nearly $982 million, while Ethereum-related funds lost around $249 million.

Total XRP Spot ETF Net Inflow

The movement suggests some investors are reducing exposure to Bitcoin and Ethereum but are still staying active in crypto through selected altcoins. Other digital assets, including TON, Dogecoin, and Chainlink, also saw smaller inflows during the same period.

Bitcoin ETF Outflows and Market Sentiment Turn Bearish

Bitcoin has faced strong selling pressure in recent days, falling nearly $5,000 from above $82,000 to below $77,000. Heavy ETF withdrawals and aggressive selling in spot and futures markets have added to concerns about short-term weakness.
