Digital-asset ETFs attracted approximately $199.4 million of net inflows in the August 10 trading session as Bitcoin and Ethereum products advanced alongside the broader cryptocurrency market. Bitcoin ETFs generated $111.6 million of net inflows, led by the iShares Bitcoin Trust ETF (IBIT) with $128.3 million, partially offset by $32.8 million of outflows from the VanEck Bitcoin ETF (HODL). Most unlevered Bitcoin funds gained approximately 0.8%–0.9% for the day and 1.6%–1.8% over the week. Ethereum ETFs added $85.9 million, with the iShares Ethereum Trust ETF (ETHA) accounting for $81.1 million; unlevered Ethereum products generally rose 0.4%–0.6% during the session and roughly 2.6% over the week. Solana ETFs posted the strongest underlying daily returns, with most unlevered products gaining 1.5%–2.0%, but recorded only $0.4 million of net inflows as demand for the leveraged SOLT fund was largely offset by outflows from Fidelity’s FSOL. XRP ETFs moved in the opposite direction, declining about 1.1%–1.2% for the day and more than 5% for the week, although the category still attracted approximately $1.6 million of net inflows. Overall, flows remained concentrated in the largest iShares Bitcoin and Ethereum products, while performance across the smaller digital-asset ETF categories was mixed.
