• Solana funds pulled in $31 million while crypto products lost $173 million
• US investors led redemptions, while Europe saw buying
• Traders debate whether flows can support SOL price
Crypto investment products continued to leak capital last week. However, Solana-linked vehicles attracted fresh money despite the broader retreat.
Flow data showed investors added $31 million to Solana funds even as the sector recorded $173 million in net outflows.
Solana Funds $31M Inflows Defy Broader Retreat
According to CoinShares, digital asset products marked a fourth consecutive week of withdrawals.
Although the week began with firm demand, sentiment reversed as prices softened midweek. As a result, total flows turned negative by the close.
Against that backdrop, Solana funds gathered $31 million. The move stood out because most large products saw redemptions.
US Leads Withdrawals While Europe Adds Exposure
Regionally, the United States accounted for the majority of selling.
Funds based there lost $403 million. Meanwhile, investors in Germany added $115 million, Canada brought in $46.3 million, and Switzerland contributed $36.8 million.
This split suggests buyers and sellers interpret current market weakness differently.
Bitcoin and Ethereum Bear the Brunt
Bitcoin products recorded $133 million in outflows.
At the same time, short Bitcoin vehicles also saw money leave, with $15.4 million exiting across two weeks. Historically, that combination has sometimes appeared near exhaustion phases.
Ethereum followed with $85.1 million in redemptions, while smaller products posted limited changes.
Select Altcoin Demand Emerges
Even so, a handful of assets attracted capital.
XRP led inflows at $33.4 million. Solana ranked next with $31 million, and Chainlink added modest buying.
The pattern points to selective positioning rather than a return to broad risk-taking.
Flow Divergence Often Guides Sentiment
Traders frequently monitor fund data to gauge conviction.
When inflows concentrate in specific assets while benchmarks fall, participants often interpret it as targeted accumulation.
Still, flows can reverse quickly if macro or regulatory conditions change.
Market Impact: SOL Trades Inside Familiar Range
Solana’s token recently changed hands near $84, reflecting a daily decline of roughly 3%.
Liquidity remains deep, yet price has stayed trapped between well-defined levels in recent sessions.
As a result, some traders question whether steady fund inflows can offset technical pressure.
Analysts Outline Key Levels to Watch
Market commentator Umair Crypto said in a recent post that SOL has held between roughly $77 and $90 for nearly two weeks.
Because both sides of the range have been tested, he argued the market sits in balance. However, he noted that price now trades below the range’s control area, which may lean short-term risk lower.
Still, a break above prior highs could open room toward the low $90s. Without that shift, rallies might remain temporary.
Solana’s ability to attract capital while the wider market bleeds remains notable.
Whether those inflows translate into sustained price strength may depend on how long the broader risk-off mood persists.
