Bitcoin spot ETFs attracted net inflows of $5.06 million on October 15, with BlackRock's IBIT leading the category by capturing $16.79 million of inflows. Meanwhile, Ethereum spot ETFs experienced a sharper reversal, recording $60.22 million in net outflows for the same period, driven primarily by $44.39 million of redemptions from BlackRock's Ethereum ETF product.
The divergence underscores differing institutional appetite between the two asset classes on the day. Bitcoin's modest inflow suggests steady but cautious accumulation, while Ethereum's significant outflow points to active liquidation pressure among professional investors.
The exact drivers behind the Ethereum redemptions—whether tactical rebalancing, profit-taking, or broader sentiment shifts—remain unspecified in available reports.
