Bitcoin ETFs faced a capital crunch, with withdrawals of $1.26 billion in a single week, while Ethereum ETFs have seen losses for 10 consecutive days

The U.S. spot Bitcoin ETF recorded a net outflow of approximately $1.26 billion this week, marking the largest single-week capital outflow since late January of this year, and has seen net redemptions for six consecutive trading days. Data shows that this type of product saw an outflow of about $649 million just on Monday. Although there was some easing in the following days, the overall trend of continuous outflow remained. Market participants pointed out that the recent rise in U.S. Treasury yields, the strengthening of the dollar, and geopolitical tensions are among the main reasons for the capital withdrawal.

At the same time, Ethereum ETFs are also under pressure, experiencing net outflows for 10 consecutive trading days, the longest outflow period since March 2025. The total outflow for the week was approximately $216 million. Among them, BlackRock's iShares Bitcoin Trust (IBIT) currently manages assets of about $61.1 billion, but this is still below the cumulative capital inflow of about $3.7 billion, indicating that recent market price fluctuations have impacted the value of holdings. As of the ETF trading day's close, the Bitcoin price was around $77,500, and Ethereum was about $2,130, maintaining a narrow range of fluctuations overall. Despite the significant short-term capital outflow, the spot Bitcoin ETF has still seen a cumulative net inflow of about $57.1 billion since its launch, with an asset scale of approximately $98.9 billion.
