That reversed roughly $577 million of combined outflows from Thursday and Friday, as tracked by SoSoValue.

The inflows coincided with a BTC price rally to about $71,088, up about 3.1%.

The article links the move in part to easing geopolitical worries after comments from former President Trump about potential de-escalation and steps to keep oil prices down, suggesting macro and headline drivers helped spark renewed demand for Bitcoin ETF exposure.

Altcoin-focused ETFs continued to face net selling pressure: Ether ETFs recorded $51 million of outflows, XRP funds saw $18 million leave, and Solana ETFs had $2.5 million of outflows on the same day, marking the third straight session of withdrawals for altcoin funds.

The piece notes cumulative movements across the recent sessions, including roughly $225 million exiting Ethereum products and about $41 million from XRP and $16 million from Solana over the period.

Despite ETF outflows from altcoin products, underlying tokens posted modest intraday gains — Ether, XRP and Solana were all up roughly 2–3% per CoinGecko — underscoring a divergence between on-exchange ETF flows and spot crypto price moves.

The article frames these movements as part of a broader short-term market dynamic where ETF allocations and spot prices can move in different directions.

The note highlights Bitcoin's relative resilience: since Feb. 28 BTC was up about 7% over the month while gold declined around 2%.

Volatility rose, with 30‑day implied volatility hitting a two‑week high.

Bitcoin still remained more than 40% below its October record above $126,000.

Those details place the inflows and price rally in context of a market that is moving higher in the near term but still well below prior all‑time highs.
