Altcoin ETF inflows continue to show exceptional resilience despite one of the bloodiest market days of the month. The total crypto market cap plunged 7.84%, falling to $2.88 trillion, while the CMC Fear & Greed Index dropped to 11, signaling Extreme Fear across the market.
Bitcoin and Ethereum ETFs saw huge red flows, but altcoin ETFs moved in the opposite direction—attracting fresh institutional capital even as prices dropped sharply.
Major BTC and ETH ETF Outflows — But Altcoins Shine
Bitcoin ETFs recorded their second-worst daily outflow ever on November 20, registering $903.2M in net outflows.
Ethereum ETFs joined the negative trend with their 8th consecutive day of outflows, losing $261.6M.
Yet, even in these severe conditions, altcoin ETF inflows stayed positive, signaling that institutional investors continue to accumulate key altcoins despite market-wide panic.
Solana ETF Extends Its Perfect Streak With Strong Inflows
The Solana ETF once again demonstrated unmatched strength, adding to its perfect streak of positive net inflows since launch.
On November 20, Solana ETFs registered a combined $23.6M in net inflow:
- Bitwise BSOL: $20.1M
- Fidelity FSOL: $2.3M
- 21Shares TSOL: $1.2M
Total AUM: $744.64M
$SOL price: ~$127.39
- –10% (24h)
- –8.31% (weekly)
Despite the price drop, institutions are still buying Solana exposure through ETFs—an extremely bullish structural sign.
XRP ETF Sees Its Second-Best Day Ever
The XRP ETF had a massive $118.15M net inflow on November 20 — the second highest daily inflow since launch.
The inflow was boosted significantly by the newly listed Bitwise XRP ETF, which had its first day of trading yesterday.
XRP ETF total AUM: $385M (after just 5 days of trading!)
$XRP price: ~$1.93
- –8.75% (24h)
- –15% (weekly)
Even with XRP’s steep price correction, institutional inflows remain strong — a rare sign of confidence during extreme fear.
HBAR ETF Returns Another Positive Day
The HBAR ETF extended its bounce with a second consecutive positive day, adding $747.37K in net inflows on November 20.
HBAR ETF AUM: $57.17M
$HBAR price: ~$0.1293
- –10.3% (24h)
- –17.5% (weekly)
HBAR continues to show that investor appetite is present even during periods of steep price declines.
Altcoin ETF Inflows: A Bright Spot in a Red Market
While fear dominates the market and major crypto ETFs bleed heavily, altcoin ETF inflows remain a rare sign of optimism. The sustained inflows into Solana, XRP, and HBAR ETFs show that institutional investors are selectively rotating into high-conviction altcoins rather than abandoning the market altogether.
Altcoin ETF inflows continue to be one of the strongest indicators of long-term institutional confidence — even during extreme market turbulence.
