Bitcoin ETF Selloff Deepens as XRP and HYPE Funds See Rising Demand

Bitcoin ETFs recorded over $1.26 billion in outflows this week as investors shifted their focus toward alternative crypto assets like XRP, Solana, and Hyperliquid (HYPE).
BlackRock’s IBIT reportedly led the selloff, while Ethereum ETFs also continued facing negative flows. Meanwhile, XRP and HYPE-related funds attracted fresh capital, highlighting growing institutional interest in higher-growth crypto sectors beyond Bitcoin.
Analysts believe the market rotation reflects investors searching for stronger upside opportunities amid ongoing macroeconomic uncertainty and changing market sentiment. Despite the recent pressure on Bitcoin ETFs, many traders still see the pullback as a healthy consolidation phase while capital continues flowing into emerging crypto ecosystems and decentralized finance projects.
