Crypto ETFs shed $3 billion — should beginners panic?

Spot ETFs for Bitcoin and Ether saw combined outflows of $609 million in a single day, with cumulative outflows topping $3 billion.

U.S. spot crypto ETFs turned sharply negative this week. According to 99Bitcoins, Bitcoin and Ether ETFs together recorded $609.3 million in net outflows in one session — even as BTC slid to $65,700 and ETH fell below $1,900.

Cumulative outflows are now approaching $3 billion, raising the question: is this a rotation of institutional capital or a broader retreat?

99Bitcoins' breakdown discusses what the numbers actually mean, why institutions are pulling back right now, and whether this is a moment to panic or to buy the dip.
