On May 30, 2025, Bitcoin ETFs experienced a one-day outflow of $616.22 million, concluding a six-week inflow period. This shift coincided with market volatility.
Significant Shift in Inflows
The week leading up to May 30, 2025, marked notable outflows from the Bitcoin ETF market. BlackRock's IBIT led the exodus with $430.82 million in withdrawals, despite maintaining $69.21 billion in assets. Following it, Fidelity's FBTC recorded $113.71 million in outflows, and ARK & 21Shares' ARKB saw $120.14 million in withdrawals.
ETF Market Remains Strong
Despite one-day outflows, the total market cap of Bitcoin ETFs stood at $126.15 billion on May 30, constituting 6.07% of Bitcoin's market cap. The cumulative net inflow across all Bitcoin ETFs remains positive at $44.37 billion, indicating enduring institutional interest.
Mixed Performance Across Individual ETFs
Different ETF providers showed varied results. While BlackRock's IBIT experienced significant losses, it maintained its leading position in assets. Mid-tier funds, such as ARK & 21Shares' ARKB and Bitwise's BITB, experienced proportionately larger withdrawals relative to their asset bases, suggesting differing investor strategies for ETFs.
The single-day outflow from Bitcoin ETFs may signal a market correction, yet the overall trend in institutional investment remains positive, with notable interest in diverse types of ETFs among investors.
