Crypto ETFs diverge: Bitcoin suffers $60M outflows; ETH, SOL, XRP funds in green

  • BTC ETFs recorded $60.48M withdrawals on December 8.
  • Ethereum funds extended their latest momentum with $35.49M inflows.
  • XRP and Solana ETFs ended yesterday with gains amid prevailing demand.

The digital tokens space remains choppy ahead of the December 10 Federal Reserve decision on interest rates.

Crypto exchange-traded funds, which have become vital in gauging institutional appetite in these risk assets, confirm the current uncertainty.

Bitcoin ETFs suffer outflows despite IBIT’s gains

Interest around BTC ETFs remained negative yesterday, with the products recording net outflows amounting to $60.48 million (SoSoValue data).

The significant withdrawals came as investors reacted to the weekend’s sluggish performance across the crypto landscape.

Bitcoin failed to break $92,000 again, currently trading at $90,150.

However, Monday was not gloomy for all BTC ETF issuers.

BlackRock proved its resilience and dominance as its IBIT attracted $28.76 million in inflows.

While funds like Graycale’s GBT (-44.03M) and Fidelity’s FBTC (-39.44M) saw substantial withdrawals on December 8, IBIT’s steadiness indicates that profit taking, not a shift in interest, likely triggered the mixed flows into Bitcoin.

Ethereum ETFs flip positive

While Bitcoin bled on December 8, Ethereum exchange-traded funds turned positive with $35.5 million inflows.

Notably, the funds recorded substantial exits in the previous two sessions, on December 4 (-41.5M) and December 5 (-75.2M).

Indeed, Ethereum has been on the investor radar lately following its Fusaka upgrade, which targets enhanced speed, scalability, and lower costs for Ether-based Layer 2 platforms.

Moreover, the inflows indicate that investors are viewing Ethereum as a legitimate token for portfolio diversification beyond Bitcoin.

Indeed, the second-largest crypto by value is experiencing renewed interest from institutional participants.

For example, BlackRock is seeking the SEC’s authorization for a new staked Ether trust ETF – the ETHB.

The proposed product differs from BlackRock’s popular ETHA trust in that the staking Ether trust will track Ethereum’s performance and include incentives gained from the trust’s staked Ether.

ETH is trading at $3,124 after gaining more than 10% the past seven days.

Solana ETFs see steady demand

Solana spot products closed the previous day with $1.2 million inflows.

While the figure remains modest, it reflects consistent demand for SOL ETFs.

Monday’s inflows have extended their winning streak to three days, demonstrating appetite for these products despite broader turmoil.

Solana exchange-traded funds have attracted roughly $639 million since their late October debut.

Meanwhile, SOL price is hovering at $133, down 2% the past 24 hours.

XRP ETFs steal the show

Ripple’s crypto asset stood out on December 8, with a net inflow of $38.04 million, eclipsing peers for the day.

Grayscale led as its GXRP drew over $810K in fresh capital on Monday.

Also, Canary, Bitwise, and Franklin’s XRP exchange-traded funds recorded notable daily gains.

Regulatory clarity and XRP’s unique utility in cross-border transactions have elevated the altcoin’s appeal among institutional investors.

Nevertheless, the December 8 ETF performance sends a clear message.

Investors are now diversifying into other cryptos beyond Bitcoin.

Altcoin ETFs are gaining traction for their added advantages, as the crypto industry gains increased acceptance in mainstream finance.

Aave price could explode above $200: here’s the forecast

  • Aave price jumped to highs of $200 as cryptocurrencies recorded an uptick on December 8, 2025.
  • While market sentiment is weak, bulls could dominate price action toward $300.
  • Decentralized finance and overall bullish conditions will be key to the AAVE price.

Aave is in the green on the day as the decentralized finance heavyweight’s token captures renewed investor attention.

On Monday, AAVE traded at $193 at the time of writing, having touched highs of $200 and reflecting a robust recovery from recent dips.

With bullish forecasts for Bitcoin and the broader market, it appears gains position AAVE for a potential explosive growth.

AAVE price gains amid altcoin surge

AAVE has been in a downtrend for over three months and remains constrained.

However, the DeFi token has posted a slight uptick over the past week, and current prices are well above the lows of $147 reached on November 21, 2025.

On Monday, the token climbed to highs of $200 before paring gains to around $193.

The Aave token’s uptick coincides with a broader altcoin bounce on Dec. 8.

As Bitcoin showed resilience above $90k, Ethereum broke above $3,100, Solana touched $136, and Chainlink advanced above $13.

For Aave, gains over the week stood at 17%, coming amid major stablecoin transfers and increased buzz around DeFi growth.

On Dec. 5, the Aave lending pools witnessed huge USDT transactions, moves that highlight increased borrowing demand and liquidity.

Analysts see this and whale activity as potential catalysts for further gains.

AAVE price forecast

The current market outlook for cryptocurrencies aligns with broader risk asset and seasonal trends.

December has historically delivered notable gains for investors amid “Santa rallies”.

Aave’s 17% surge in the past week mirrors this outlook, even if it’s still early days.

Investors are also eyeing the Federal Reserve’s anticipated rate cut this week.

Bulls could sparkle above the $200 mark. However, volatility remains a concern, and support levels could be much lower.

From a technical point of view, key indicators point to short-term advantage for Aave bulls.

Price is above the critical resistance and support level at $178.

As can be seen on the chart below, buyers breached this level as the AAVE price pumped to highs of $385 between May and August 2025.

However, declines from the year-to-date peak also saw bears plunge the token’s value past $178 to lows of $147 in November. Prior to this, AAVE had crashed to $128 on October 10, 2025.

This means the token is in a descending channel.

The Relative Strength Index (RSI) reading currently hovers at 52. It’s upsloping and indicative of likely further room for upside movement. Bulls can do this without immediately entering the overbought territory.

Notably, the token recently broke above its 50-day exponential moving average (EMA) as bulls rallied.

This happened as part of a classic bullish confirmation move that has historically preceded significant upside action.

Aave’s daily chart shows the 50EMA is at $201.

Bearish risks, such as a Bitcoin correcting below $90,000, could cap gains at this mark.

However, bulls riding an upward wave could break higher, with $227 and $320 key levels.
