During the January 5-9 period (ET), the crypto ETF markets showed mixed momentum. Bitcoin spot ETFs experienced significant headwinds, registering a net outflow of $681 million as investors trimmed exposure to the leading asset. Ethereum followed a similar pattern with a $68.57 million net outflow from its spot ETF products.

However, the alternative assets painted a different picture. Solana's spot ETF attracted fresh capital with a net inflow of $41.08 million, while XRP's spot ETF drew $38.07 million in new investments. This divergence suggests institutional capital was selectively rotating away from mega-cap digital assets toward altcoin positions during this trading window.
