Summary
BlackRock's iShares Bitcoin Trust (IBIT) accounted for the largest share of Tuesday's exit, losing $78.2 million, though this was the smallest daily outflow in its eight-session losing streak, compared with $213.2 million on Monday. The streak has cost the fund about $1.73 billion since Oct. 30. Fidelity's FBTC lost $36.8 million on the day. Morgan Stanley's Bitcoin Trust (MSBT) drew $20 million in inflows Tuesday after losing $22.1 million Monday, and was the only fund with inflows on both days. Other spot funds recorded no flows on Tuesday.
Tuesday's trading volume across the funds reached $2.06 billion, with IBIT contributing $1.64 billion. Total net assets stood at $92.82 billion, equal to approximately 6.26% of Bitcoin's market value, while cumulative net inflows totaled $55.40 billion. IBIT held the largest share at $58.24 billion, followed by FBTC at $12.82 billion and Grayscale's GBTC at $9.11 billion.
The Bitcoin outflows contrast with broader ETF demand. According to Bloomberg ETF analyst Eric Balchunas, U.S.-listed ETFs took in about $12 billion a day over five sessions, and all 17 of the top inflow funds were stock funds, a pattern Balchunas said he could not recall seeing. Leading gainers included Vanguard's VOO, Invesco's QQQ and BlackRock's IVV. The shift follows an AI-led stock selloff that erased Bitcoin's post-midterm bounce. At the time of writing, Bitcoin traded at $73,994, down 0.3% over 24 hours.
