Bitcoin ETF Outflows Trigger Net $250M Crypto ETF Loss
Crypto exchange-traded funds (ETFs) in the US experienced significant outflows of $250 million on July 31, according to recent data. The decline was largely driven by Bitcoin products, which saw net withdrawals of $265.37 million during the same period.
BlackRock's iShares Bitcoin Trust led redemptions with $122.66 million in outflows, followed closely by Fidelity's Wise Origin Bitcoin Fund with $54.78 million. Grayscale's Bitcoin Trust recorded $52.63 million in withdrawals, while Bitwise's BITB and ARK 21Shares' ARKB lost $17.77 million and $17.54 million respectively.
In contrast to the decline in Bitcoin ETFs, Ethereum products saw significant inflows, with spot Ethereum funds attracting $9.03 million despite smaller outflows from other Ethereum products. The split between Bitcoin and Ethereum products highlights the uneven demand for digital assets within institutional investors.
