ARK 21Shares\u2019 ARKB and Bitwise\u2019s BITB funds followed with outflows of $27.85 million and $12.76 million, respectively.<\/p>\n<p>Invesco\u2019s BTCO managed to offset part of these outflows as it drew in $10.02 million from investors, with BlackRock\u2019s IBIT also contributing to the upside, albeit with more modest inflows of $2.5 million. The remaining seven BTC ETFs saw zero flows on the day.<\/p>\n<p>Daily trading volume for the 12 BTC investment products stood at $3.16 billion on Tuesday, slightly dropping from the previous day.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>However, it should be noted that despite the recent outflows from the BTC funds, the products still hold over $3 billion in net inflows in September, showing significantly better performance than August, when over $750 million was reportedly withdrawn by investors.<\/p>\n<p>    <!-- .cn-block-related-link --><\/p>\n<h1 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Bitcoin ETF outflows triggered by crypto downturn<\/h1>\n<p>The recent outflows from the spot Bitcoin funds followed Bitcoin\u2019s visit to multi-week lows after the crypto market saw one of the largest liquidation events this year. On Monday, the crypto market saw over $1.7 billion in total liquidations, with long liquidations making up the majority..<\/p>\n<p>Bitcoin crumbled under the selling pressure and lost the $115,000 threshold, and has subsequently dropped as low as $111,369 in the subsequent trading session on Tuesday.<\/p>\n<p>Much of this bearish momentum was fuelled by undercut hopes that the United States Federal Reserve would kick off a clear easing cycle, especially after it cut rates last week. However, the rate cut optimism quickly faded away after Fed policymakers adopted a hawkish stance, primarily by signaling fewer interest rate cuts in 2025 than previously expected.<\/p>\n<p>Fed Chair Jerome Powell insisted that future cuts would be \u201cdata dependent,\u201d which left traders without a clear timeline or conviction, and in turn, drained the market\u2019s risk appetite.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cOutflows from Bitcoin ETFs this week were the result of last week\u2019s Federal Reserve rate cut, which could be a harbinger of a coming recession. Risks of inflation and increasing unemployment remain, contributing to risk-off sentiment at institutions,\u201d Kadan Stadelmann, Chief Technology Officer at Komodo, told crypto.news in a statement.<\/p>\n<p>However, Stadelmann downplayed the broader implications, adding that the recent outflows are \u201cprofit-taking rather than a fundamental issue for the Bitcoin price,\u201d implying that long-term investor conviction remains intact.<\/p>\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Bitcoin downside risks remain<\/h2>\n<p>For now, Bitcoin needs to hold ground above $110k to avoid further correction, according to TYMIO founder Georgii Verbitskii.<\/p>\n<blockquote class=\"wp-block-quote is-layout-flow wp-block-quote-is-layout-flow\">\n<p>\u201cRight now, the market looks weak, as BTC isn\u2019t bouncing after the recent drop, if the slide continues, that\u2019s a negative sign. However, if we see a slow move back toward $118K, that could be the point where long positions start to make sense, with a continuation of the broader uptrend possible into year-end.\u201d<\/p>\n<p><cite>Georgii Verbitskii, founder of TYMIO.<\/cite><\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>Social media sentiment is mostly bearish at the moment, according to data shared by Santiment.
