U.S. Spot Bitcoin ETFs Post $225 Million in Outflows as Ether Funds Add $26 Million
Key Takeaways
- •U.S. spot Bitcoin ETFs recorded roughly $225 million in net outflows in the latest session.
- •The Bitcoin ETF outflows followed a recent five-day inflow streak, the longest such run since April.
- •Spot Ether ETFs attracted about $26 million in net inflows during the same session.
- •The opposing flows showed that Bitcoin and Ether ETF demand did not move together on the day.
- •The session’s data suggested rotation between crypto ETF categories rather than an overall retreat from regulated crypto funds.

U.S. spot Bitcoin exchange-traded funds recorded roughly $225 million in net outflows in the latest session, while spot Ether funds moved in the opposite direction with about $26 million in net inflows, showing a split in flows across the two largest crypto ETF categories.
Bitcoin ETF Outflows Lead Daily Flows
The roughly $225 million withdrawn from U.S. spot Bitcoin ETFs marked a reversal in the direction of fund flows, according to the daily issuer Bitcoin ETF flow tracker from Farside Investors. The figures describe activity in regulated investment products and reflect how capital moved through the ETF complex during the session.
Net outflows mean redemptions exceeded new creations across the funds. In this case, the data showed weaker demand for spot Bitcoin exposure through ETFs on the day, after a period in which the products had recently posted positive momentum. ETF flow data is closely watched because these products are a regulated access point for investors that may not hold crypto assets directly, though daily flows can be volatile and do not by themselves explain broader market direction.
The reversal followed a run in which Bitcoin ETFs recorded a fifth consecutive day of inflows, their longest such streak since April, according to related market coverage from CoinDesk. Recent sessions had also included $203 million in net inflows for the funds, while the products earlier logged a six-day net inflow streak.
The change underscores how quickly daily flow direction can shift in the spot Bitcoin ETF market, with inflows and outflows often varying from session to session.
Ether Funds Move in the Opposite Direction
While Bitcoin products recorded net redemptions, spot Ether ETFs added about $26 million, according to the issuer Ether ETF flow tracker from Farside Investors. The opposing flow direction showed that Bitcoin and Ether products did not move in lockstep during the session.
The divergence left Ether funds with positive daily flow momentum while Bitcoin funds turned negative. In other recent periods, the relationship has moved the other way, with Ether products returning to outflows while Bitcoin funds continued to attract inflows.
Cross-asset ETF flows can show changes in relative positioning among institutional allocators using regulated crypto investment products. In this session, the combination of Bitcoin ETF outflows and modest Ether ETF inflows pointed to rotation between crypto ETF categories rather than a broad retreat from the sector. Because Bitcoin and Ether funds track different underlying assets, investors often compare their flow patterns to gauge whether demand is concentrated in one asset class or spread across the regulated crypto ETF market.
Taken together, the latest figures showed near-term ETF positioning tilted toward Ether on the day, even as U.S. spot Bitcoin ETFs saw the larger move in dollar terms through net redemptions.
