Investment flows across digital asset products remained uneven in the final week of 2025, with capital favoring select altcoins even as broader sentiment stayed cautious. Products linked to XRP and Solana continued to attract steady demand, standing out against ongoing weakness in flagship assets. XRP focused products recorded inflows of just over seventy million dollars during the week, while Solana based products added several million more. Since the launch of related exchange traded products in the United States earlier in the quarter, cumulative inflows have risen above one billion dollars for each asset. This sustained interest has emerged despite declining prices across much of the crypto market, suggesting that some investors are positioning selectively rather than exiting the asset class entirely. The divergence highlights a growing preference for assets perceived to have stronger near term narratives or differentiated use cases.
Data from CoinShares shows that this strength contrasts sharply with continued outflows from Bitcoin and Ethereum investment products. Bitcoin linked funds saw several hundred million dollars withdrawn over the same period, while Ethereum products also recorded notable net redemptions. Since the recent market downturn earlier in the quarter, cumulative outflows from these two assets have climbed into the billions. Multi asset crypto funds also experienced net selling, reinforcing the broader risk off tone among investors. Regionally, the United States accounted for the largest share of withdrawals, while several European markets posted smaller losses. Germany stood out as a relative exception, recording net inflows and leading regional totals for the month, even as overall market confidence remained fragile.
Spot market performance reflected similar uncertainty, with brief rebounds failing to hold across major tokens. Bitcoin moved above ninety thousand dollars during the week before retreating, while Ethereum followed a comparable pattern after testing higher levels. XRP and Solana also saw short term gains before easing back, indicating that buying pressure has yet to translate into sustained momentum. Despite continued inflows into certain investment products, assets under management have grown only modestly this year, implying that price performance has offset much of the new capital. Looking ahead, investors appear divided between selective accumulation and defensive positioning, leaving market direction dependent on broader macro signals and a recovery in risk appetite.
