Updated: Dec 28 2025- Continued Outflow Trend: During Christmas week, US spot Bitcoin ETFs experienced a total outflow of $782 million, extending a six-day withdrawal streak, with analysts attributing this primarily to seasonal factors rather than a decline in institutional interest.
- Single-Day Outflow Peak: On Friday, the outflow peaked at $276 million, with BlackRock's iShares Bitcoin Trust seeing nearly $193 million exit, indicating a short-term loss of confidence in the fund.
- Decline in Total Assets: By Friday, total net assets held by US spot Bitcoin ETFs fell to approximately $113.5 billion, down from over $120 billion earlier in December, reflecting a cautious investor sentiment in the market.
- Future Liquidity Expectations: Despite the current outflow challenges, analysts expect inflows to rebound in early January as institutional investors return, and potential changes in monetary policy may further support ETF demand.
