A
restart more difficult than expected. After a brief pause at the
beginning of the new year 2026, including a strong day with +697 million
net inflows on January 5, Bitcoin exchange-traded funds (ETFs) have
just recorded three consecutive days of outflows. On the Ethereum ETF
side, the situation is similar, with two consecutive days of net
outflows.
Key points of this article:
Bitcoin ETFs have
recently experienced three consecutive days of net outflows, with nearly
400 million dollars withdrawn on January 8, 2026, despite a strong
start to the year.
Ethereum ETFs have also faced similar
difficulties, recording 159 million dollars in net withdrawals, although
they have maintained nearly 200 million dollars in net inflows since
the beginning of January.
Nearly 400 million $ were withdrawn from Bitcoin ETFs on January 8
With
Bitcoin's strong price movement during the first five days of 2026,
rising from 87,500 to 94,500 dollars, the crypto community hoped that
the gloom/stagnation of late 2025 had ended with the previous year.
However, this does not appear to be the case yet, particularly with
Bitcoin briefly falling below 90,000 dollars yesterday.
According
to data from Farside Investors' tracking of cryptocurrency ETFs,
Bitcoin ETFs experienced nearly -399 million dollars in net outflows on
the trading day of January 8, 2026.
This marks the third
consecutive day of withdrawals for these BTC funds, meaning that despite
the initial strong restart, the net flow (inflows minus outflows) for
this month of January has dropped back to a modest +40.4 million dollars
in net inflows since the beginning of January 2026.$BTC
