Bitcoin Surge and Mantra With U.S. spot Bitcoin ETFs showing a whopping $713.30 million in net outflows last week, investor mood was anything but positive. Ranked as the third-largest weekly outflow thus far in 2025, this represented their second straight week in negative territory.
Bitcoin ETFs Face Major Outflows
Tuesday, April 8, was the highest day of losses, as $326.27 million left the market in just 24 hours. The week finished without any net inflows, highlighting the investors’ general risk-off attitude. With IBIT leading the weekly redemptions, BlackRock shed $342.61 million. Grayscale’s GBTC came in at $160.93 million in outflows, and Fidelity’s FBTC showed $74.63 million leaving the fund. Other money likewise suffered. Bitwise’s BITB lost $38.13 million; Invesco’s BTCO saw $27.30 million removed; and ARKB of Ark 21 Shares faced $26.01 million in redemptions. Franklin’s EZBC fell by $18.10 million; WisdomTree’s BTCW dropped by $11.90 million; VanEck’s HODL declined by $10.75 million; and Valkyrie’s BRRR ended the week with $5.32 million in outflows.
One of the few indications of good investor mood in the Bitcoin ETF market, Grayscale’s Mini Bitcoin Fund presented a meager $2.39 million inflow. With a total net asset value of $93.36 billion at the end of the week, Bitcoin ETFs fell far from previous highs of almost $100 billion.
Ether ETFs See Continued Outflows
Ether ETFs fared not that well either. Tracking $82.47 million in net outflows, they extended their losing run to seven consecutive weeks. With $45.04 million in redemptions, Fidelity’s FESH led the drop; Grayscale’s ETHE followed with $28.32 million. Additionally, Bitwise’s BITB and VanEck’s ETHV saw drops of $5.65 million and $4.44 million, respectively. BlackRock’s ETHA provided the sole inflow; it added just a meager $977,000. Reflecting ongoing investor caution in the larger crypto market, Ether ETFs are managing $5.24 billion in total net assets as of the most recent numbers.
Crypto Market Faces Uncertainty
The cryptocurrency scene is still erratic, given continuous macroeconomic uncertainties and a risk-averse environment. Under the changing market mood, Bitcoin and Ether ETFs still suffer; no obvious turnaround has yet developed. Everyone focuses on the flows this week to determine whether a recovery is imminent or if more outflows would prolong the present downslope.
Final Thoughts
Reflecting investor caution in a turbulent market, the paper exposes notable outflows from Bitcoin and Ether ETFs. With big firms like BlackRock and Grayscale driving the losses, Bitcoin ETFs suffered $713.30 million in withdrawals.
Ether ETFs also continued to experience outflows, running a seven-week loss streak. Though Grayscale’s Mini Bitcoin Fund has a modest inflow, macroeconomic uncertainty and a risk-averse attitude drive an overall negative trend. The future is still unknown since market changes rely on forthcoming investor flows.
