Summary
US-listed spot cryptocurrency exchange-traded funds recorded approximately $116 million in combined net outflows on October 29, 2026, according to Farside Investors data reported by FinanceFeeds. Withdrawals from Ethereum and Solana products outweighed modest inflows into Bitcoin funds, which added $17.2 million.
Bitcoin ETFs extended their inflow streak to four sessions, accumulating about $440.8 million since October 26, though daily momentum weakened considerably. BlackRock's iShares Bitcoin Trust (IBIT) led with $12.8 million in net inflows, followed by Fidelity's FBTC at $10.5 million and Bitwise's BITB at $8.8 million. Morgan Stanley's MSBT added $4.2 million, while WisdomTree's BTCW recorded $3.8 million in withdrawals and Grayscale's Bitcoin Mini Trust lost $15.3 million. Cumulative net inflows into US spot Bitcoin ETFs reached approximately $57.69 billion since their January 2024 introduction.
Ethereum products saw significantly heavier selling. BlackRock's ETHA registered $71.7 million in withdrawals and its ETHB lost $15.6 million. Grayscale's ETHE recorded $15.5 million in outflows and its Ethereum Mini Trust lost $5.6 million. Fidelity's FETH was the only Ethereum fund with positive flows, attracting $2.9 million. The $105.5 million outflow marked the fourth consecutive negative session for Ethereum ETFs.
Solana ETFs also continued to see redemptions. Bitwise's BSOL lost $23.7 million and Grayscale's GSOL experienced $4 million in withdrawals. The $27.7 million outflow followed withdrawals of $8.2 million on October 26, $19.2 million on October 27 and $5.7 million on October 28, for a combined total of roughly $60.7 million. Despite the recent selling, cumulative net inflows into Solana products remained approximately $1.47 billion.
The divergence highlights contrasting institutional capital movements across major cryptocurrencies. ETF creation and redemption data offers a measurable view of capital flowing into and out of regulated vehicles, but it does not by itself establish broader institutional positioning across spot, derivatives or private crypto markets.
