š„$BTC ETF Outflows Hit $681M As 2026 Beginsš„
Bitcoin ETFs Start 2026 With Heavy Outflows ā Hereās the Real Read
Bitcoin spot ETFs just saw $681M in outflows in the first full week of 2026.

$ETH ETFs werenāt spared either: $68.6M exited.

At first glance? Looks bearish.
Under the hood? Itās more nuanced.
⢠4 straight days of BTC ETF redemptions
⢠One day alone saw nearly $486M pulled
⢠Macro uncertainty + delayed Fed rate cuts = risk-off positioning
š§ What this is not
This isnāt institutions āabandoningā crypto.
⢠Morgan Stanley just filed for BTC & $SOL ETFs
⢠Bank of America approved advisors to recommend BTC ETFs
⢠2025 crypto ETP inflows totaled $46.7B
Thatās not an exit ā thatās tactical repositioning.
ā³ The real driver now
Markets are waiting on:
⢠Fed clarity
⢠CPI data
⢠Rate-cut confirmation
Until then, flows may stay choppy.
š¬ Are ETF outflows a warning⦠or just smart money waiting?
