Market Overview

U.S. spot Bitcoin ETFs saw a $782 million outflow during the Christmas week. Investors withdrew $782 million from these products during the holiday period, according to SoSoValue data.

The largest single-day outflow occurred on Friday, with $276 million leaving these funds.

BlackRock Inc. (NYSE: BLK)’s IBIT fund led the outflows with nearly $193 million redeemed. Fidelity Investments’s FBTC fund followed closely, with $74 million outflow.

What happened

The outflows on Friday marked the sixth consecutive day of net outflows for spot Bitcoin ETFs. This represents the longest redemption streak since early autumn. Over the six days, a total of more than $1.1 billion was withdrawn.

The total net asset value of U.S.-listed spot Bitcoin ETFs fell to approximately $113.5 billion on Friday. This is below the high of over $120 billion recorded in early December.

Throughout the period, Bitcoin prices remained relatively stable, fluctuating around $87,000.

Why it matters

Kronos Research Investment Director Vincent Liu stated that outflows during the holiday period are not uncommon. He pointed out that “position adjustments” and decreased liquidity during the holidays, rather than weakening institutional demand, are the main factors.

“When trading desks return in early January, institutional flows typically resume and normalize,” Liu told Cointelegraph.

Blockchain analytics firm Glassnode reported that the 30-day moving average of flows into U.S. spot Bitcoin ETFs and crypto ETFs has remained negative since early November. The firm noted that this indicates that, as overall market liquidity tightens, institutional allocators are participating at a moderate level.

Large outflows during the holiday period... Is this a run or waiting for a rebound? Should I hold onto my coins or follow the trend and sell off?

They're starting to harvest again, not even taking a break during the Christmas holiday.

The big Christmas holiday escape—so many people are leaving. Is it because you're really pessimistic, or just wanting to have a peaceful New Year?

nah the holiday dump is exactly the social arbitrage play i predicted lol... people panic selling while institutions accumulate quietly. watch the narrative flip next week when the data reframes this as "smart money rotation" 💅
