US-based spot Bitcoin ETFs Extend Negative Outflow Streak To Seven Days

Due to the ongoing trade war, US investors appear to be moving away from risk assets like digital assets and crypto-based financial products.

The escalating trade tensions between the United States and China have also had an impact on US-based spot Bitcoin ETFs, which saw significant outflows over the past few days.

Due to the ongoing trade war, US investors appear to be moving away from risk assets like digital assets and crypto-based financial products.

Spot Bitcoin ETFs Extend Negative Outflow Streak To Seven Days

According to the latest market data, the spot Bitcoin ETFs witnessed a significant $713 million in total net outflow over the past week. This negative streak of capital outflows suggests a worsening climate and declining appetite for crypto exchange-traded products among United States investors.

Data from SoSoValue shows that the US-based spot Bitcoin exchange-traded registered a daily total net outflow of $1.03 million on Friday, April 11. This round of withdrawals represented the seventh consecutive day of net outflow for the crypto-based financial products.

Interestingly, most spot Bitcoin ETFs, including BlackRock’s IBIT (the largest BTC exchange-traded fund by net assets), recorded zero netflow to close the week. ARK 21Shares Bitcoin ETF (with the ticker ARKB) and Bitwise Bitcoin ETF (with the ticker BITB) were the only funds that witnessed any activity on Friday.

ARK 21Shares Bitcoin ETF saw a total inflow of $11.28 million on Friday, ending its six-day capital drought. Bitwise’s BTC exchange-traded fund, on the other hand, registered a total withdrawal of $12.31 million to close the past trading week.

As earlier mentioned, this latest round of capital زدنات stretched the US Bitcoin ETFs’ negative streak to seven straight days of cumulative outflows. Moreover, this single-day performance brought the exchange-traded products’ weekly record to a disappointing $713 million in total net outflow.

The recent woeful performance of the spot Bitcoin ETFs can be associated with the growing uncertainty in the global financial markets, as the United States and China become embroiled in a trade war. This instability seems to be impacting other US-based crypto products, including the spot Ether ETFs.

According to data from SoSoValue, the Ethereum spot exchange-traded funds experienced a total net outflow of $29.1981 million on Friday. This negative flow of capital represented the crypto products’ fourth consecutive day of net outflows.

Bitcoin Price At A Glance

Similarly, the price of Bitcoin crumbled under the uncertain conditions of the market, falling to around $74,000 to start the past week. However, the premier cryptocurrency recovered above $83,000 after United States President Donald Trump paused tariffs on imports from other countries except China.

Bitcoin has reacted further positively to other trade news, including President Trump’s exemption of computer gadgets, smartphones, and chips from new tariffs. As of this writing, the price of BTC sits just above $85,000, reflecting an almost 2% jump in the past 24 hours.
