Spot Bitcoin ETFs recorded $17.0719 million in net inflows on October 29, marking their fourth consecutive trading day of positive flows. Spot Ethereum ETFs, meanwhile, registered $105 million in net outflows, extending their withdrawal streak to four days.

The contrasting results produced a combined net outflow of approximately $87.93 million across the two categories. The figures point to a notable difference in activity involving investment products tied to Bitcoin and Ethereum, the two largest cryptocurrencies by market capitalization.

US spot cryptocurrency exchange-traded funds posted divergent results during the session, with Bitcoin funds receiving fresh capital while Ethereum funds continued to record withdrawals. Although the Bitcoin inflow was relatively modest, it extended a four-day positive sequence. Ethereum’s $105 million outflow was substantially larger in dollar terms and more than offset the money entering Bitcoin funds.

What the ETF flows show

Spot cryptocurrency ETFs provide exposure to digital assets through regulated investment products, allowing investors to participate without directly managing cryptocurrency wallets. Because these funds can be accessed through traditional brokerage accounts, their daily net flows are closely monitored as an indicator of activity within those products. US spot Bitcoin ETFs began trading in January 2024, with spot Ethereum ETFs following in July of that year, giving the two largest crypto assets comparable regulated vehicles whose daily results can be tracked side by side.

Bitcoin’s fourth consecutive day of inflows shows continued allocations to BTC-focused funds. However, the $17.0719 million figure alone does not establish broad-based buying across the entire Bitcoin market. ETF flows reflect activity in specific investment vehicles rather than all transactions involving the underlying cryptocurrency.

Ethereum’s four-day outflow streak indicates continued withdrawals from spot ETH funds. Such withdrawals may reflect investors reducing exposure to those products or reallocating capital elsewhere, but they do not necessarily mean that all Ethereum holders are selling. Daily ETF data covers the funds themselves and does not capture the full range of activity in the Ethereum market.

Four-day streaks continue in opposite directions

The latest Bitcoin and Ethereum ETF figures leave Bitcoin with a four-day inflow streak and Ethereum with a four-day outflow streak. The October 29 data does not determine whether either sequence will continue into November. Upcoming daily flow disclosures will show whether Bitcoin’s streak reaches a fifth session or Ethereum’s run of withdrawals comes to an end.

Additional Bitcoin inflows could provide support if they remain consistent and increase in subsequent sessions. A sustained rise in ETF demand may absorb some available BTC supply. Ethereum, by contrast, would need its fund flows to reverse for the current withdrawal pattern to end.

ETF flows alone cannot predict cryptocurrency prices or establish the direction of the broader market. Liquidity conditions, derivatives activity and macroeconomic factors also influence both Bitcoin and Ethereum. The reported figures therefore describe activity in the relevant spot ETF products for October 29 rather than the complete state of demand across either cryptocurrency market.
