The U.S. Spot Bitcoin ETF experienced a turbulent week, resulting in a significant outflow of nearly $200 million on June 14. Fidelity’s FBTC led the exodus with an $80.1 million outflow, followed by Grayscale’s GBTC at $52.3 million.
Notably, as Bitcoin’s price shows signs of volatility amid the gloomy U.S. Spot Bitcoin ETF trading, experts weigh in on the potential implications for the cryptocurrency market.
Bitcoin ETF Records $200M Outflow
The U.S. Spot Bitcoin ETF faced a challenging week, with persistent outflows totaling $581.4 million over the past five days. On Friday alone, outflows reached $189.9 million, with Fidelity’s FBTC and Grayscale’s GBTC being the main contributors.
Notably, Fidelity’s ETF saw the largest single outflow, amounting to $80.1 million. Grayscale’s ETF followed closely, losing $52.3 million in assets.
Meanwhile, this week’s trend shows Bitcoin ETFs struggling to maintain investor interest. Outflows occurred on four of the past five trading days, suggesting a shift in market sentiment. However, it’s worth noting that these withdrawals come after a period of robust inflows, marking a sudden reversal in investor behavior.
In addition, the rapid outflows reflect broader market concerns and increased volatility in Bitcoin price. This sentiment shift has led to increased caution among investors, weighing on the risk-bet appetite of the investors. However, the question now is whether these trends will continue or stabilize as the market adjusts to recent price fluctuations.
