U.S. spot Bitcoin ETFs have experienced net capital outflows for nine consecutive trading days, totaling approximately $2.84 billion. This marks the longest consecutive losing streak since the product's launch in 2024, surpassing the previous record set on February 8, 2025. BlackRock's IBIT was the primary source of these outflows.Analysts indicate that this round of capital outflows reflects a notable cooling in institutional demand for Bitcoin ETF exposure. Meanwhile, the market is showing signs of divergence: Hyperliquid-related ETFs and certain XRP spot ETFs continue to record capital inflows. In contrast, spot Ethereum ETFs have also faced capital outflows for 13 consecutive days, with cumulative outflows reaching approximately $694 million. This suggests that capital within crypto asset ETFs is undergoing a reallocation. (Cointelegraph)
Bloomberg Senior ETF Analyst Eric Balchunas posted on X platform, pointing out that Bitcoin's volatility and correlation are increasingly approaching the level of gold. This trend has been significantly underestimated during the current market adjustment and may be a positive signal amid recent market turbulence. Based on the 60-day historical volatility comparison data of IBIT and the gold ETF (GLD) since their launch, Bitcoin's volatility structure is gradually converging with gold, indicating that its asset characteristics may be changing.Eric Balchunas added that despite the volatile market environment, the BlackRock Bitcoin Spot ETF (IBIT) has continued to outperform U.S. stocks since the escalation of the Iran conflict and has achieved more than double the excess returns compared to the S&P 500 ETF (SPY) since the approval of BlackRock's ETFs.
