Bitcoin ETFs Experience $812M Outflow as Ether ETFs End 20-Day Inflow Trend

Spot Bitcoin ETFs experienced net outflows of $812.25 million on Friday, representing the second-largest single-day withdrawal in the history of these financial products.

Key Takeaways:

• Bitcoin ETFs recorded $812M in outflows on Friday, marking the second-largest single-day decline on record.
• Ether ETFs concluded a 20-day inflow streak with $152M in redemptions.
• Institutional interest in Ethereum seems to be increasing, with corporate treasuries now holding 2.73 million ETH.

This abrupt shift eliminated a week’s worth of inflows and reduced cumulative net gains to $54.18 billion.

The total assets under management (AUM) for Bitcoin ETFs fell to $146.48 billion, which is 6.46% of the cryptocurrency’s overall market capitalization, according to data from SoSoValue.

Fidelity and ARK Lead Bitcoin ETF Outflows With Over $659M Withdrawn

Fidelity’s FBTC experienced the largest decline, with $331.42 million in redemptions, closely followed by ARK Invest’s ARKB, which saw a loss of $327.93 million.

Grayscale’s GBTC also faced notable outflows of $66.79 million, while BlackRock’s IBIT recorded a relatively minor loss of $2.58 million.

Despite the capital outflow, trading activity remained strong. The total volume across all spot Bitcoin ETFs reached $6.13 billion, with IBIT alone contributing $4.54 billion, indicating that institutional interest has not completely diminished.

In the meantime, spot Ether ETFs ended their 20-day inflow streak, the longest to date, with $152.26 million in net outflows on the same day.

The total AUM for Ether ETFs is now $20.11 billion, or 4.70% of Ethereum’s market capitalization.

Grayscale’s ETHE led the outflows with $47.68 million in redemptions, followed by Bitwise’s ETHW with $40.30 million and Fidelity’s FETH with $6.17 million.

BlackRock’s ETHA remained stable, holding at $10.71 billion. Overall trading volume across Ether ETFs reached $2.26 billion, with Grayscale’s product accounting for nearly $289 million of that total.

Just a few weeks ago, Ether ETFs were achieving record inflows. On July 16, they attracted $726.74 million in net inflows, the highest daily total since their launch, followed by $602.02 million the next day, indicating a surge in demand.

This momentum appears to be driven by increasing institutional interest in Ethereum as a strategic treasury asset.

Last week, Ether Machine, supported by several prominent industry investors including Pantera Capital and Kraken, announced the purchase of 15,000 ETH as part of its long-term treasury strategy.

Similarly, BitMine Immersion Technologies recently acquired $2 billion worth of ETH over a 16-day period, becoming the largest corporate holder of Ethereum.

In total, corporate treasuries now possess 2.73 million ETH, which represents 2.26% of the asset’s circulating supply, according to Strategic Ether Reserves.

95% Approval Likelihood for Spot Solana, XRP ETFs

As reported, Bloomberg’s senior ETF analysts have assigned a 95% probability that the SEC will approve spot ETFs for Solana, XRP, and Litecoin this year, increasing their previous estimates from 90% amid rising optimism for institutional crypto products.

They also anticipate that a crypto index ETF tracking multiple assets could receive approval as early as this week, indicating broader access to altcoins for traditional investors.

In addition to ETFs, institutional Bitcoin demand is extending into corporate treasuries.

As reported, the Singapore-based edtech firm Genius Group has doubled its Bitcoin holdings to 200 BTC after acquiring 20 BTC last week, as part of a broader strategy to establish a 10,000-BTC treasury.
