US crypto ETFs drew $31.77B in 2025 despite year-end pullback
US crypto ETFs logged $31.77B of net inflows in 2025 despite a year-end pullback, BlockBeats reports. Spot Bitcoin ETFs led with $21.4B in 2025 versus $35.2B in 2024, spot Ether ETFs drew $9.6B in their first full trading year, and the spot Solana ETF accumulated roughly $765M since its late-October listing. BlackRock's IBIT took in $24.7B in 2025—about five times Fidelity's FBTC—while the other nine spot Bitcoin ETFs saw combined net outflows of $3.1B, including roughly $3.9B from Grayscale's GBTC. BlackRock's ETHA led Ether funds with about $12.6B in inflows but recently recorded several days without new money; demand for Bitcoin and Ether ETFs has softened and could slow early-2026 inflows, Glassnode data show.

Citi Expects U.S. December Nonfarm Payrolls to Rise by 75,000, Unemployment Rate at 4.7%
Citigroup economists said on Dec. 31 they expect U.S. nonfarm payrolls to increase by 75,000 in December while the unemployment rate rises to 4.7%, BlockBeats reports. They cautioned that the recent drop in jobless claims around the holiday period should be interpreted carefully, noting that initial unemployment benefit applications fell from 215,000 to 199,000 in the week of Christmas versus forecasts of 220,000 amid unusually large seasonal adjustment distortions this year. Citi added that a more reliable signal from initial claims may not emerge until late January, although layoff levels remain low, and partly attributed the expected rise in unemployment to a renewed increase in labor force participation.
