US Spot Bitcoin (BTC) ETFs Add Just $232 Million Across 13 Sessions

US spot Bitcoin exchange-traded funds have added a net $232 million across 13 trading sessions, although outflows dominated the most recent week, according to a COINOTAG update published at 15:39 UTC on October 12, 2026.

The funds opened Monday with $89.9 million in net redemptions, then flipped to a $118.86 million net inflow on Tuesday. The recovery gave way midweek: $487.07 million left the funds on Wednesday and a further $244.13 million exited on Thursday, before Friday closed out the period with a $21.13 million inflow. Each daily figure is the balance between creations — new fund shares issued as capital enters — and redemptions, when shares are cashed out, so a day like Wednesday reflects withdrawals far outpacing new commitments.

The modest 13-session total indicates how heavily the week's redemptions weighed on the gains the funds had built earlier in the window. Spot Bitcoin ETFs in the United States began trading in January 2024, after the US Securities and Exchange Commission approved the first of the products. The lineup includes funds from issuers such as BlackRock, Fidelity, Grayscale, ARK 21Shares, Bitwise, Invesco, VanEck and others, each of which holds Bitcoin directly and discloses daily creations and redemptions. The resulting daily flow figures are published by the issuers and tracked by market observers to follow institutional participation in Bitcoin through regulated US listings, so the next round of daily issuer disclosures will show how the balance between creations and redemptions evolves.
