According to Farside Investors, BITB was one of only two funds to record outflows yesterday. While BITB and EZBC funds showed outflows, IBIT and FBTC managed to keep a positive flow. For Ethereum ETFs, Bitwise's ETHW and Grayscale's ETH funds recorded positive inflows, while Grayscale's ETHE saw negative net inflows for the day.
