US Spot Bitcoin ETFs Hit Longest Outflow Streak Since March 2025

Key Facts

1US spot Bitcoin ETFs recorded five consecutive weeks of net outflows.

2Total outflows during this period reached $3.8 billion.

3Last week alone saw $315.9 million leaving the ETFs.

US-based spot Bitcoin ETFs have extended their losing streak to five consecutive weeks, with total capital withdrawals reaching $3.8 billion during this period. During the most recent trading week, which was shortened by the Presidents' Day holiday, investors pulled a net $316 million from these vehicles. Notably, this marks the first time spot Bitcoin ETFs have recorded five straight weeks of outflows since March 2025, signaling a significant cooling of institutional interest. Major funds including IBIT, FBTC, and GBTC have all been impacted by this sustained "de-risking" trend. Analysts suggest that the ongoing withdrawal of liquidity reflects broader macroeconomic uncertainty, likely exerting further downward pressure on BTC/USD prices as demand softens.
