Bitcoin and Ethereum spot exchange-traded funds (ETFs) experienced significant net outflows on March 5, signaling continued investor caution amid recent market volatility.
Bitcoin and Ethereum Spot ETFs See $101.6 Million Net Outflow on March 5
According to the latest data, Bitcoin spot ETFs recorded a total net outflow of $38.3 million, while Ethereum spot ETFs saw even larger outflows, reaching $63.3 million. This brings the total net outflows for both assets to approximately $101.6 million in a single day.
Market Sentiment and ETF Trends
The outflows reflect the ongoing uncertainty in the crypto market as investors potentially reallocate funds or take profits amid price volatility.
Ethereum’s higher rally compared to Bitcoin suggests that investors may be more hesitant about ETH’s near-term prospects.
The decline in ETF inflows follows a strong start to the year, which saw record demand for Bitcoin ETFs after they were approved in the U.S. in January. However, recent market corrections combined with macroeconomic concerns and regulatory scrutiny have led to increased selling pressure.
Analysts will be watching closely to see if this trend continues or if investors will turn to spot ETFs as a long-term risk strategy.
Despite the recent outflows, institutional interest in crypto ETFs remains strong, and upcoming regulatory decisions on Ethereum ETFs in particular could shape the market’s direction in the coming months.
