US Bitcoin and Ether ETF Outflows Approach $1 Billion Over Two Sessions
Key Facts
US spot Bitcoin and Ether ETFs recorded combined outflows approaching $1 billion over two trading sessions. The heavy selling was accompanied by a significant increase in trading volumes across the funds.
The outflows occurred as Bitcoin prices returned to the funds' estimated average entry levels, prompting investors to exit at breakeven according to BeInCrypto. This decline in conviction follows US economic data from October 2, 2026, which reported only 29,000 non-farm payroll additions and a 4.2% unemployment rate.
