- Sol and XRP defended the prevailing market trend and attracted $ 8.9 million and $ 8.5 million respectively.
- With the dominance of Bitcoin under pressure, are we witnessing the start of an Altcoin takeover?
Bitcoin [BTC] Tartte Trump’s tariff threats and kept strong above $ 90k in the charts. And yet it could not escape the sale and $ 430 million shed as large American bitcoin ETFs-fidelity, Ark 21Shares and Grayscale-zag heavy withdrawal.
Is Bitcoin’s grip slips away, making Altcoins their moment to shine while investors chase the high cap chances?
Sol & XRP Tart the Trend
After 19 weeks of profits, digital actival funds became a hit and saw $ 415 million in last week, according to To Coinshares.
Bitcoin took the biggest hit and colander $ 430 million, while Ethereum saw modestly out of $ 7.2 million. And yet this month it was still $ 785 million on the net intake.

In the meantime, Solana and XRP broke the trend and attracted $ 8.9 million and $ 8.5 million respectively. With rising institutional interest in high caps, the Buzz around potential ETFs in 2025 and an Altcoin season is stronger than ever.
Why? Well, Coinshares’ research head, James Butterfill, has linked the outflows to concerns about American monetary policy and higher than expected inflation data.
And that can simply be the start – the mutual rates of Trump, a towering dollar and gold prices and 25% rates for important metal joints only fuel the ragless attitude of the FED on cutting back the interest rates.
Is Bitcoin’s dominance under threat?
The current consolidation of Bitcoin has everyone who is talking about ‘outbreak’, with history who suggests that slumps often have the scene for major price increases.
What about this cycle? It’s a different story. Unlike earlier runs, it is deeply intertwined with macro trends – such as the recent dip under $ 100k, fueled by Trump’s rate policy.

With Sol and XRP on the ETF golf, supported by strong communities and real use cases, it looks like BTC.D could make serious competition.
This shift is one to look closely in the coming months, especially with rising macro uncertainty. How BTC and high caps such as Sol and XRP react are crucial to prove this theory.
