Crypto ETFs See $1.17 Billion Weekly Outflows as Institutional Caution Grows

Digital asset funds recorded sharp outflows last week, with total withdrawals reaching about $1.17 billion, signaling a more cautious tone among institutional investors.

Bitcoin ETFs led the decline with $932 million in outflows, while Ethereum ETFs saw another $438 million withdrawn. Analysts suggest investors may be locking in profits and responding to broader macroeconomic uncertainty.

In contrast, Solana-based products attracted roughly $118 million in inflows, reflecting selective confidence in alternative networks.

After a brief rebound on November 6, when U.S. Bitcoin ETFs gained $240 million, flows reversed the next day with $558 million in outflows — one of the largest daily drops in months.

Despite withdrawals, institutional participation remains strong, with capital rotation indicating active management rather than full retreat. Future sentiment may hinge on interest rate policy and overall market stability.
