Heavy Selling Hits Bitcoin and Ether ETFs Again With $523 Million Combined Outflows

Bitcoin ETFs Bleed $410 Million as Crypto Outflows Accelerate

Selling pressure intensified across crypto exchange-traded funds (ETFs), with investors continuing to pull capital from bitcoin and ether funds in a broad-based retreat. The tone was defensive. And this time, the redemptions ran deep.

Bitcoin spot ETFs posted a steep $410.37 million net outflow, with losses spread across ten funds. Blackrock’s IBIT led the decline at $157.56 million, followed by Fidelity’s FBTC with $104.13 million and Grayscale’s GBTC at $59.12 million. Grayscale’s Bitcoin Mini Trust shed $33.54 million, while Ark & 21shares’ ARKB saw $31.55 million leave.

Additional exits were recorded on Bitwise’s BITB ($7.83 million), Invesco’s BTCO ($6.84 million), Franklin’s EZBC ($3.79 million), Vaneck’s HODL ($3.24 million), and Valkyrie’s BRRR ($2.77 million). Trading volume reached $3.55 billion, and total assets fell further to $82.86 billion.

Ether ETFs followed the same path, logging $113.10 million in net outflows. Fidelity’s FETH accounted for $43.52 million, while Blackrock’s ETHA recorded $28.99 million in redemptions. Grayscale’s Ether Mini Trust and ETHE lost $18.11 million and $13.43 million, respectively. Bitwise’s ETHW shed $6.18 million, and 21Shares’ TETH saw $2.88 million exit. Trading activity totaled $880.37 million, with net assets ending at $10.97 billion.

XRP ETFs also slipped into negative territory. Although Canary’s XRPC attracted $1.44 million, Franklin’s XRPZ added $737,470, and Bitwise’s XRP saw $303,920 in inflows, these gains were overwhelmed by an $8.91 million outflow from Grayscale’s GXRP. The segment closed with a $6.42 million net outflow, while trading volume stood at $12.52 million and net assets dropped to $970.66 million.

Solana ETFs provided a modest counterbalance. A $2.7 million net inflow was driven primarily by $2.05 million into Bitwise’s BSOL and $340,800 into Grayscale’s GSOL. Trading volume reached $27.12 million, with net assets finishing at $656.29 million.

Overall, Thursday’s session reflected persistent caution across crypto ETF markets. Bitcoin and ether bore the brunt of heavy redemptions, XRP weakened under concentrated selling pressure, and solana stood alone as the only category to close in positive territory.
