According to multiple industry sources including Cointelegraph and Cryptofamia, spot Bitcoin ETFs saw USD 1.11 billion in outflows, while Ethereum ETFs shed USD 728.57 million. In contrast, alternative crypto ETFs attracted fresh capital: Solana (SOL) ETFs recorded USD 46.34 million in inflows, while Ripple (XRP) ETFs saw a substantial USD 243.5 million inflow.
On November 13 alone, the market experienced USD 870 million in net outflows, marking the second-largest daily outflow on record.
Why Bitcoin and Ethereum Are Seeing Outflows
Analysts emphasize that the withdrawals from Bitcoin and Ethereum ETFs do not indicate panic selling. Instead, they represent strategic portfolio rebalancing.
Market participants note that many investors who entered during October’s rally are now gradually reducing positions to secure profits. While Bitcoin and Ethereum remain the core of the cryptocurrencies, institutional investors are adjusting allocations in search of a better balance between stability and growth potential.
The large outflows in mid-November are widely interpreted as profit-taking following strong gains in October.
Investors are not exiting the crypto market entirely. Rather, they are rotating capital from BTC and ETH into other high-growth assets, creating what experts describe as a clear pattern of outflows from Bitcoin/Ethereum and inflows into Solana and Ripple.
Ripple ETF Records the Most Successful ETF Debut of 2025
Ripple (XRP) ETFs experienced some of the most dramatic activity of the week. The newly launched Canary Capital Ripple ETF amassed approximately USD 243.05 million on its first trading day, November 14, a debut that analysts call the most successful ETF launch of 2025 across both crypto and traditional asset classes.
The ETF also posted an impressive USD 58 million in first-day trading volume.
This milestone makes Ripple the third major cryptocurrency, after Bitcoin and Ethereum, to see large-scale adoption through ETF products.
Analysts attribute the strong inflows to both the ETF launch and improving regulatory clarity surrounding Ripple Labs.
Market Outlook: A Shift Toward Diversified Crypto Exposure
The week’s dramatic fund movements highlight the evolving behavior of institutional and retail investors. Rather than abandoning crypto exposure, the market is redistributing capital toward assets perceived as having strong momentum or regulatory tailwinds.
Experts say these portfolio adjustments reflect a maturing investment landscape, where investors are no longer concentrating solely on Bitcoin and Ethereum but are exploring alternative ecosystems like Solana and Ripple to capture additional growth opportunities.
