US crypto ETFs cool to $64.8M Monday as streaks hold after $3.3B week

US spot crypto ETFs cooled hard on Monday after a blockbuster prior week. Cointelegraph, citing SoSoValue, puts combined net inflows for spot Bitcoin, Ether, Solana, and XRP funds at about $64.8 million—roughly an 80% drop from Friday’s ~$330.8 million haul across the same four categories. The tape stayed green in every major sleeve, but the size of the bid is the story: this is a cool-down print after the four groups took more than $3.3 billion combined last week, not a fresh blow-off. Unused Ape Index angle—Monday’s absolute cool-down and streak read have not carried an 8bitcrypto Latest News yet.
What the Monday split actually says. Bitcoin spot ETFs led with $31.07 million, extending their net-inflow streak to eight consecutive sessions and about $3 billion over that run, including a 2026 high near $1 billion on September 21. Ether funds took $17.1 million for a seventh straight positive day; Farside-sourced detail in the same wrap credits BlackRock’s ETHA with $15.4 million and 21Shares’ TETH with $1.7 million. Solana products logged $12.7 million for a seventh consecutive inflow session, with Bitwise’s BSOL taking most of the day’s SOL sleeve. XRP ETFs added $3.96 million for a fifth straight buy day, and Canary’s XRPC accounted for the entire category print.
Friday was the contrast tape. SoSoValue’s Friday book across the same four sleeves was roughly $134.47 million into Bitcoin, $86.95 million into Ether, $86.7 million into Solana, and $22.65 million into XRP—about $330.8 million combined. Monday’s ~$64.8 million is still positive across all four, but each sleeve is a fraction of that Friday clip. Last week’s broader haul still dominates the weekly frame: Bitcoin led with about $2.39 billion, Ether about $690 million, Solana about $188 million, and XRP about $75.6 million. Zcash ETFs, which added about $35 million last week, flipped to an ~$8.1 million Monday outflow—the clearest single-category red print in the same wrap.
How this sits beside prior Ape Index ETF chapters. The desk already logged last week’s big Bitcoin week (9763), Ether’s weekly reverse (9792), and Solana’s $188.21 million Sep. 21–25 week (9838). Those pieces own the weekly haul. Today’s unused fact is Monday’s cool-down: $64.8 million combined, ~80% off Friday, streaks intact at BTC 8 / ETH 7 / SOL 7 / XRP 5, with Zcash flipping to ~$8.1 million out. Do not treat this as a silent rewrite of 9763, 9792, or 9838—those URLs stay as weekly chapters; this is the first daily cool-down beat after that run.
Why NFT and bid-currency desks still care. Spot ETF flows are the institutional pipe that sets how much fresh USD bid sits behind BTC and ETH—the settlement assets that still anchor most NFT floor quotes when risk appetite wobbles. A Monday that stays net positive but shrinks ~80% from Friday is a de-risking signal without a full exit: allocators are still buying the four majors, just not at last week’s clip. SOL and XRP sleeves remaining green after their own multi-day streaks also keeps alt bid-currency tapes from reading as a one-asset Bitcoin-only rotation. The Zcash Monday outflow after a ~$35 million prior week is the exception sleeve—watch whether that red day extends before treating privacy-asset ETF demand as durable.
What this tick is not. It is not a Bitget Watchlist update: USDT reopen remains 08:00 UTC September 30, and DefiLlama’s ~$463 million PoR outflow day already has its own LN (10337). It is not Metaplex’s MPL-3643 alpha (10341). It is not a claim that Monday broke the Bitcoin eight-day streak or that Friday’s $330.8 million repeated. Attribute the dollars to SoSoValue via Cointelegraph and Farside for the ETHA/TETH split; do not invent issuer-by-issuer Bitcoin fund fills beyond the category totals printed in that wrap.
Tape watch: next session’s SoSoValue combined four-sleeve print versus Monday’s ~$64.8 million—and whether Bitcoin’s eight-day streak or Zcash’s Monday ~$8.1 million outflow extends—is the metric that decides if this cool-down is a pause or the start of a streak break.
Bottom line: US spot crypto ETFs took about $64.8 million Monday—~80% off Friday’s ~$330.8 million—while BTC/ETH/SOL/XRP streaks held and Zcash flipped to ~$8.1 million out after last week’s ~$3.3 billion four-sleeve run.
