Solana ETF Flows Remain Positive for the Week

Solana spot ETFs saw net outflows of $2.22 million on January 16, marking their first negative day in more than six weeks. This is the fourth day of withdrawals since these ETFs launched. Investors moved funds out of major Solana exchange-traded funds (ETFs), signaling a pause in recent inflows. The withdrawals come after weeks of strong investor interest.

Despite the outflow on January 16, Solana ETFs posted a net inflow of $46.88 million for the week from January 12 to January 16. According to Solana Stream, the inflows were led by Bitwise’s BSOL, with $818.4 million in assets under management (AUM), followed by SOLT Volatility Shares at $372.3 million.

Other funds included Grayscale’s GSOL at $197.9 million, REX-Osprey’s SSK at $179.4 million, and Fidelity’s FSOL at $160.2 million. Total cumulative inflows since launch now exceed $860 million, and overall AUM across all Solana ETFs is over $1.2 billion.

Solana’s RWA Ecosystem and Market Outlook

On January 15, Solana’s real-world asset (RWA) ecosystem reached a new all-time high (ATH) of $1 billion in total value locked (TVL). On-chain data shows mid-week peaks between $1.1 billion and $1.12 billion, reflecting a 25% rise over the past 30 days. Market analysts noted, “The RWA growth continues steadily, but questions remain about long-term sustainability.” Investors are monitoring both ETF flows and on-chain activity as Solana navigates price fluctuations. 

However, Solana’s price saw a dip of 6.09% within 24 hours, bringing the current trading value to $133.67. Analysts are monitoring how the price behaves around its support level. Based on BitGuru, if Solana holds at it`s this support level, it could trigger a bounce back toward its previous highs.

Despite recent outflows from Solana ETFs, the cryptocurrency’s ecosystem continues to experience strong demand and active growth. While some traders remain cautious, many believe that Solana’s momentum can continue into 2026.
