Over $9 billion in funds flowed out of Bitcoin and Ethereum ETFs within four months

BTC-1,2%
ETH-3,2%

PANews March 2 News, according to CoinDesk reports, data shows that US-listed spot Bitcoin and Ethereum ETFs have experienced record-breaking capital outflows over the past four months, indicating a significant decline in institutional interest in digital assets. Bitcoin ETFs have seen four consecutive months of outflows, with a total net outflow of $6.39 billion, marking the longest monthly outflow since the fund’s launch in January 2024. Ethereum ETFs also saw outflows of $2.76 billion during the same period.
The large-scale capital outflows explain the price declines of both tokens. Since Bitcoin broke above $126,000 in early October last year, it has nearly halved to $67,000. Ethereum’s decline has been even more severe, dropping over 60% from its high of over $4,950 in August last year.

Bitcoin is hovering around the $700,000 level; if oil prices fall below $100 or push toward $80,000

Bitcoin has recently been trading in a high-level range. The price rebounded from $67,000 to $70,900, driven by a U.S.-Iran ceasefire agreement. Market analysis suggests that weakness in oil prices—or easing inflation pressure—may support Bitcoin’s upside. If it breaks above $72,500, it could trigger short liquidations and push the price up to $80,000. However, instability in the Middle East and a rebound in oil prices could act as a drag. Volatility in the energy market will be a key factor influencing Bitcoin’s direction.
