Spot Bitcoin ETF FlowsYesterday, U.S. Bitcoin spot ETFs saw a net inflow of $45.6 million, ending a three-day streak of net outflows. Specifically, Grayscale GBTC had a net outflow of $30.6 million, BlackRock’s IBIT had a net inflow of $53 million, and BTCW had a net inflow of $10.5 million.After a significant price rebound the day before, Bitcoin’s price saw a slight correction yesterday. Recently, the yen rate hike has prompted investors to sell off yen arbitrage assets to repay yen debt, which has also affected the crypto market due to the prevalence of yen carry trades. After the market panic subsided, the broader market rebounded strongly, with Bitcoin’s price climbing back above $57,000, though it saw a slight pullback yesterday, narrowing its intraday gain to 2.1%.On the other hand, U.S. Ethereum spot ETFs experienced a net outflow of $23.7 million yesterday, with Grayscale ETHE seeing a net outflow of $31.9 million. The PlusToken wallet, which had been dormant for three years and held up to 780,000 ETH, saw activity yesterday, raising potential sell-off concerns and unsettling Ethereum investors. As a result, Ethereum’s price dropped to $2,350, with more funds flowing into the more stable Bitcoin spot ETFs.

Daily SpotlightToday’s hot project is XRP, with a 24h increase of 19.7%, currently priced at $0.601, peaking at $0.6434, and a market cap of $33.7 billion. Ripple (XRP) is a digital payment network and protocol used for settling payments, asset trading, and transferring funds. Initially created by Jed McCaleb and Chris Larsen in 2012 under the name “OpenCoin,” Ripple aims to free people from financial networks like banks and credit cards. XRP, Ripple’s native cryptocurrency, supports the underlying blockchain known as the “XRP Ledger.” Unlike other cryptocurrency blockchains, only pre-approved participants can contribute and validate transactions on the XRP Ledger. When a sender makes a transaction, a small amount of XRP is deducted from the total supply instead of charging transaction fees. Recently, there has been progress in Ripple’s long-standing lawsuit with the SEC, with Ripple being fined $125 million, far below expectations. This favorable news caused XRP’s price to surge above $0.6, reaching a high of $0.6434.
