Uncertainty in the cryptocurrency markets continues to cause volatile movements in Bitcoin (BTC) and Ethereum (ETH) spot ETFs. On February 19, 2025, Bitcoin ETFs experienced outflows totaling -$64.10 million, while Ethereum ETFs saw inflows of $19 million. These movements suggest that investors are taking a more positive approach towards Ethereum while selling on the Bitcoin side.
Big Outflows Continue in Bitcoin ETFs!
On the Bitcoin ETFs side, it was especially noteworthy that Fidelity’s FBTC fund experienced outflows of -48.40 million dollars. In addition, $ -8.70 million came out of the ARKB fund, while selling pressure continued in the HODL and BRRR funds.
