U.S. Spot Bitcoin ETFs Log $782 Million Net Outflows Over Christmas Week as Total AUM Drops
U.S.-listed spot Bitcoin ETFs recorded about $782 million in net outflows during Christmas week, with December 29 data marking the sixth consecutive trading day of redemptions and pushing the cumulative figure above $1.1 billion, BlockBeats reports. Friday saw the largest single-day withdrawal at roughly $276 million, including nearly $193 million from BlackRock's IBIT and around $74 million from Fidelity's FBTC, while Grayscale's GBTC posted smaller but steady outflows. Total assets under management across Bitcoin spot ETFs fell to approximately $113.5 billion from over $120 billion in early December, even as Bitcoin traded near $87,000 over the same period. Some institutional observers cited in the report said holiday-related outflows are typical and noted that January ETF flows, once normal trading resumes, may provide clearer directional signals.
