<\/a>Two days of straight outflows for bitcoin ETFs<\/span> worth $566 million.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\nEther<\/a> funds followed a similar trajectory. Ether ETFs posted a $82.85 million net outflow, spread across five funds. Fidelity\u2019s FETH led the decline with $67.57 million exiting the fund. Grayscale\u2019s Ether Mini Trust recorded $6 million in withdrawals, while Blackrock\u2019s ETHA lost $4.78 million.<\/p>\nSmaller exits were also seen from Vaneck\u2019s ETHV at $2.89 million and Grayscale\u2019s ETHE with $1.61 million.

Bitwise\u2019s XRP<\/span> lost $3.65 million, while Grayscale\u2019s GXRP saw $2.37 million exit.
