After a shaky start to the year, Bitcoin (BTC), Ethereum (ETH), and XRP Exchange-Traded Funds (ETFs) have recorded their strongest performance in months, signaling strong institutional demand despite the recent market volatility.<\/p>\n
As the crypto market recovered from the start-of-year correction, US spot Bitcoin ETFs kicked off a new positive inflow streak, capping the second straight month of massive gains.<\/p>\n
The flagship crypto saw an 11.8% rise in April, climbing from the $68,000 mark to the $78,000-$79,000 resistance area for the first time since February, BTC\u2019s strongest monthly gain in a year, according to CoinGlass data<\/a>.<\/p>\n Amid this performance, Bitcoin-based investment products recorded<\/a> their strongest inflows in six months, with a nine-day streak between April 14 and April 24 totaling $2.1 billion. This marked the longest and largest inflows since the category\u2019s $5.33 billion nine-day streak that ended in early October 2025.<\/p>\n Nonetheless, this week\u2019s market volatility, which recently pushed BTC\u2019s price to a weekly low of $74,973, snapped Bitcoin ETFs from their daily and weekly positive spells, pulling nearly half a billion dollars from the funds in just three days. As reported<\/a> by NewsBTC, the category saw $490 million in outflows between April 27 and April 29, its biggest negative net flows in three months.<\/p>\n Despite the recent withdrawals, the funds posted $1.97 billion in April after a mild $14.76 recovery on Thursday, surpassing March\u2019s $1.32 billion and recording their best performance of the year, the first two-month streak since Q4 2025.<\/p>\n Notably, these inflows have offset outflows from January and February, with nearly $1.5 billion in net inflows Year-to-Date (YTD).<\/p>\n Like Bitcoin, altcoin-based ETFs also saw a strong performance during the April market recovery, with Ethereum and XRP leading the charge. As ETH\u2019s price printed<\/a> its second green candle in 2026, its investment products logged their first positive performance of the year.<\/p>\n SoSoValue data shows that the category posted $356 million in inflows in April, ending a six-month negative streak totaling $2.8 billion. Ethereum ETFs recorded a 10-day positive spell between April 9 and April 22, bringing in $633.5 million during this period.<\/p>\n It\u2019s worth noting that ETH funds remain in red despite the recent inflows, with about $413 million in net outflows during the first four months of 2026.<\/p>\n XRP funds also rebounded in April, with inflows totaling $81.59 million. This marked a strong recovery from March\u2019s performance, when the category saw the first red month since its November launch.<\/p>\nETH, XRP Funds See April Comeback<\/h2>\n
