Bitcoin, Ether ETFs’ October outflows swell toward $1B
Bitcoin ETFs lost $244 million on Thursday, while Ether funds extended their outflow streak to eight sessions, shedding $641 million.
Why it matters
BTC (Bitcoin) · Why linked: Bitcoin ETFs experienced significant outflows of $244M in a single session, indicating heavy institutional selling pressure on BTC. Market context: Sustained ETF outflows near $1B in October signal weakening institutional demand and could pressure BTC prices lower in the short term.
ETH (Ethereum) · Why linked: Ether ETFs extended outflows to eight consecutive sessions with $641M shed, reflecting a strong and persistent institutional exit from ETH. Market context: A multi-session outflow streak of $641M suggests mounting institutional de-risking and is likely to weigh on ETH prices.
IBIT · Why linked: This is the largest spot Bitcoin ETF and is included within the headline Bitcoin ETF outflow figure of $244M in one day. Market context: Heavy single-day Bitcoin ETF outflows directly reduce IBIT inflows and AUM, which is bearish for the fund's near-term price.
