US spot Ethereum ETFs took in $216 million on Friday, September 11, 2026, while Bitcoin ETFs booked a fourth straight outflow day and XRP ETFs recorded zero net flows despite $36 million in trading volume. Each category reversed the prior week's pattern, but in a different direction.
US spot Ethereum ETFs pulled in $216 million on Friday, September 11, 2026, reversing a $24 million outflow from September 9. US spot Bitcoin ETFs recorded a $13.29 million net outflow the same day, their fourth consecutive outflow session, according to SoSoValue. US spot XRP ETFs closed at $0.00 in net flows the same day.
Ethereum ETFs swing back into inflows
A creation happens when an authorized participant hands the fund cash or the underlying coin and receives new shares in return; trading between two investors doesn't touch net flow. Ethereum's $216 million inflow followed a $24 million outflow two days earlier, so the category swung from redemptions to fresh buying within a single week. Ether traded up 3% on the day, putting spot demand and ETF demand on the same side heading into the weekend.
Bitcoin ETFs go from near-billion inflows to four outflow days
Bitcoin ETFs took in $986.9 million in the week ending September 4, then turned to four straight days of outflows ending with Friday's $13.29 million redemption. The category remains about $1 billion short of break-even for 2026. Bitcoin trades near $77,293.66, down 11.73% since January 1 and 33.48% over the past year.
XRP funds trade $36 million and move nothing
US spot XRP ETFs recorded $0.00 in net flows while $36 million changed hands the same day. A zero day means either the creations and redemptions canceled to the dollar, which is rare, or neither happened. Cumulative net inflows stand at $1.70 billion against net assets of $1.45 billion, with XRP down 26.19% since January 1. XRP funds are the newest of the three categories, and the market makers who service them haven't built the constant two-way flow Bitcoin funds see every session.
Bitcoin's reversal is the one to watch
The same firms that bought through early September have now sold for four straight sessions. Bitcoin ETFs have taken in close to $52 billion since launch against XRP's $1.70 billion, so a swing that fast moves far more money than either of the other two categories could. Ethereum's day was the bigger move of the three, but it comes off a coin down 46.67% over the past year, so one session doesn't turn that around.
A fifth day of Bitcoin ETF outflows would confirm the reversal, and a return to net creations would end it.
