Bitcoin ETFs Post $1.128 Billion Three-Day Outflow, Erasing Early-2026 Gains

Beincrypto reports that spot Bitcoin exchange-traded funds logged $1.128 billion in outflows over three consecutive trading days, nearly reversing the net inflows recorded during the first two trading days of 2026. Data from SoSoValue show BTC ETFs had already closed 2025 weakly, with November outflows of $3.48 billion (second-largest monthly outflow on record behind February’s $3.56 billion) and December outflows moderating to $1.09 billion.

The new year began with $471.14 million of inflows on January 2 and $697.25 million on January 5 (a combined $1.17 billion), before sentiment reversed with outflows of $243.24 million on January 6, $486.08 million on January 7 and $398.95 million on January 8. Coin Bureau wrote that “risk appetite is clearly cooling as investors pull capital from BTC exposure.” At the fund level, BlackRock’s IBIT saw $193.34 million in net outflows and Fidelity’s fund $120.52 million; Ark & 21Shares and Grayscale also posted net outflows, while WisdomTree had modest inflows and some products reported no flows.

Spot Ethereum ETFs notched $159.17 million in net outflows on Thursday after $98.45 million the previous day, while XRP ETFs rebounded with $8.72 million in inflows on Thursday following a $40.8 million outflow on Wednesday and Solana ETFs extended eight straight days of inflows, adding $13.64 million on Thursday.
