Catenaa, Sunday, October 26, 2025- US spot bitcoin exchange-traded funds recorded $40.5 million in net outflows Monday, extending a four-day streak of negative flows, even as bitcoin prices briefly climbed above $111,000.
Data from SoSoValue showed BlackRock’s IBIT ETF led Monday’s outflows, shedding $100.7 million. Gains in other funds managed by Fidelity, Grayscale, Bitwise, VanEck, and Invesco partially offset the losses.
Thursday and Friday saw heavier withdrawals, totaling $536.4 million and $366.6 million, respectively.
Despite the outflows, bitcoin fell 3% to $107,871 as of 3:10 a.m. ET Tuesday, reflecting ongoing market volatility. Vincent Liu, chief investment officer at Kronos Research, said ETF flows often lag underlying market demand.
Spot Ethereum ETFs also continued negative flows, posting $145.7 million in net withdrawals Monday, marking the third straight day of outflows.
The trend highlights the complex dynamics between institutional ETF activity and broader crypto market movements, suggesting that outflows do not necessarily indicate weakening demand for the underlying assets.
