Global crypto exchange-traded products saw record outflows last week, led by US spot Bitcoin ETFs and Ether funds.
Crypto exchange-traded products recorded $1.67 billion in outflows last week, the largest of 2026, driven by US-listed spot Bitcoin ETFs shedding $1.42 billion. Ether funds contributed $257.3 million to the exodus, extending year-to-date losses to $346 million.
Altcoin inflows collapsed, with only five assets posting inflows above $1 million, down from nine the prior week. XRP led gains with $20.3 million, while Hyperliquid and Near added $10.8 million and $7.6 million, respectively. Regionally, the US accounted for $1.63 billion of outflows, followed by Germany’s $25.7 million and Sweden’s $6.6 million.
The sell-off lacked a clear catalyst but coincided with underperforming equities, according to derivatives traders. The Netherlands was the sole market with inflows above $1 million, at $1.3 million, though down from $6.6 million the previous week.
