US Spot Bitcoin and Ethereum ETFs Continue Net Outflows Amid Market Pressures
US spot Bitcoin (BTC) and Ethereum (ETH) ETFs have been experiencing a prolonged period of net outflows, with each recording five consecutive weeks of losses. This trend has led to sustained downward pressure on prices, with Bitcoin trading at around $65,000-$68,000, significantly lower than its October 2025 peak near $126,000.
The total outflows over the past five weeks amount to approximately $3.8 billion for BTC ETFs, with year-to-date losses ranging from $4-4.5 billion in some analyses. Spot ETH ETFs have also seen net outflows, totaling around $123 million for the latest week referenced.
Experts emphasize that these outflows reflect institutional de-risking rather than full capitulation. Crypto assets under management remain elevated overall, and some altcoin-related products have seen minor inflows as capital rotates. Low trading volumes and apathy have been cited as factors contributing to this trend.
