Solana ETFs See 4th day of inflows as bitcoin, ether lag


Spot Solana Exchange-Traded Funds (ETFs) continue to attract investor interest, recording their fourth straight day of inflows amid “capital flight” from Bitcoin and ether funds.

According to Data From Sosovalue, Spot Solana (Sol) ETFs added $44.48 million on Friday, bringing cumulative inflows to $199.2 million and total assets to more than $502 million. The bitwise Solana ETF (BSOL) led the charge, contributing most of the new capital with a 4.99% daily gain.

In contrast, spot bitcoin (BTC) ETFs saw $191.6 million in daily net inflows on the same day, continuing a week-long streak of profit-taking. The funds saw $488.43 million in inflows on Thursday and $470.71 million the previous day.

Spot ether (Eth) ETFs also posted $98.2 million in outflows, reducing their combined outflows to $14.37 billion. The fund poured in $184.3 million on Thursday and $81.4 million on Wednesday.

The Solana ETF is gaining momentum

The move toward the Solana ETF comes in what market participants describe as a “capital cycle.” Vincent Liu, Chief Investment Officer at Kronos Research, told Cointelegraph that the trend highlights a growing appetite for new narratives and yield-driven opportunities.

“Solana ETFs are cutting back on fresh catalysts and capital flows, as seen with Bitcoin and ether profiting after a strong run,” Liu said. “Shift Signal is increasing appetite for new narratives and staking yield opportunities.”

Analysts suggest Solana’s momentum could continue next week as Bitcoin and Ether consolidate. “Solana’s momentum could extend into next week, with the cycle staying alive as the bulls stall, unless macro news unleashes extreme volatility,” Liu added.
