Bitcoin ETFs Draw $1.075B in 3 Days as Ether Funds Face Outflows

Key Facts

Spot Bitcoin ETFs recorded net inflows of $1.075 billion over a three-session trading period. TokenPost reported that these significant inflows more than offset a previous five-session streak of withdrawals totaling $228.4 million, signaling a shift in institutional sentiment back toward the primary cryptocurrency.

Ether ETFs conversely experienced net outflows of $114.5 million during the same timeframe, despite a minor inflow of $14.9 million on Wednesday, October 21, 2026. This divergence in fund performance occurs alongside U.S. economic data released on October 22, 2026, which showed initial jobless claims holding steady at 199,000 from the previous period.

Market participants are looking ahead to the Federal Reserve interest rate decision scheduled for October 28, 2026, with forecasts pointing toward a 4% rate. Monetary policy shifts remain a key factor for digital asset appeal and future ETF capital flows.
