Bitcoin ETFs trade over $7.5B in a week despite $145M in net selling

  • —Weekly trading volume in spot Bitcoin ETFs topped $7.5 billion through October 16
  • —Net outflows for the week were about $145 million; a five-day tally put them at $125.1 million
  • —Month-to-date outflows reached roughly $535 million, including a $485 million exit on October 7
  • —Cumulative net inflows since the January 2024 launch are about $57 billion, with AUM at $105–106 billion
Why it matters: Heavy turnover with contained outflows suggests weaker hands are not rushing to sell; whether IBIT and FBTC resume inflows will decide if Bitcoin holds $82,000.
