Despite potential launch this year, altcoin exchange-traded funds (ETFs) may not attract significant investor interest in the United States. Cointelegraph reports that while asset managers have submitted numerous applications to introduce ETFs holding alternative cryptocurrencies like Solana (SOL), XRP (XRP), and Litecoin (LTC), analysts suggest initial demand will likely be modest compared to core cryptocurrencies such as Bitcoin (BTC) and Ether (ETH). Head of research at Sygnum, Katalin Tischhauser, notes that excitement surrounding these ETFs does not necessarily translate into substantial demand. She predicts altcoin ETFs could see limited cumulative inflows, ranging from several hundred million to $1 billion, significantly lower than the over $100 billion held in U.S. Bitcoin ETFs. Morningstar’s Bryan Armour echoed this sentiment, stating investor anticipation for an ETF structure specifically for altcoins is unlikely to match the magnitude of Bitcoin’s success.
