Bitcoin spot ETFs recorded $61.53M in net outflows over July 27–31, ending a three-week inflow streak, while Ethereum extended inflows to four weeks.

Bitcoin spot ETFs experienced outflows of $61.53 million from July 27–31, reversing three consecutive weeks of inbound capital. The pullback contrasted with momentum in altcoin products: Ethereum spot ETFs attracted $27.42 million and extended their inflow streak to four weeks, while SOL and XRP vehicles recorded $2.82 million and $14.86 million respectively. HYPE spot ETFs posted the only other outflow figure at $14.75 million during the same window.
The divergence reflects broader July performance patterns, where Ethereum ETFs significantly outpaced their Bitcoin counterparts with $365 million in inflows and an accompanying 20% price movement, against Bitcoin's $172 million inflow total. This suggests sustained institutional interest in alternative assets despite Bitcoin's late-month reversal in fund flows.
What remains unclear is whether Bitcoin's outflow signals profit-taking after the three-week rally or marks a shift in longer-term positioning. The persistence of inflows into Ethereum and smaller-cap tokens indicates selective rather than broad-based redemption pressure across the sector.
