Bitcoin ETFs Stay Negative With Bitcoin’s Price Stuck at $77K

Friday brought a striking split across the crypto ETF market.

Bitcoin funds remained under pressure, though the pace of redemptions slowed sharply from earlier in the week. Blackrock’s IBIT recorded a $19.23 million outflow, enough to outweigh fresh demand elsewhere, after Morgan Stanley’s MSBT attracted $3.76 million, and Vaneck’s HODL added $2.18 million.

Total bitcoin ETF trading value reached $2.60 billion, with net assets closing at $97.58 billion. The result capped an entirely negative week for the group, with cumulative outflows reaching $462.73 million.

That weakness has coincided with bitcoin’s price hovering around $77,000, leaving institutional flows under close watch heading into next week.

Ether Funds Finish the Week With Force

Ether ETFs delivered the session’s strongest move, recording $216.41 million in net inflows across six funds.

Blackrock’s ETHA led with $148.82 million. Bitwise’s ETHW added $29.09 million, while BlackRock’s ETHB attracted $18.32 million. Fidelity’s FETH brought in another $11.40 million.
