Bitcoin ETFs See $870M Outflow as Ether ETFs Lose $260M; Solana Holds Ground
Bitcoin exchange-traded funds experienced a dramatic $870 million withdrawal on Nov. 14, marking the second-largest outflow on record, while Ether ETFs saw another $260 million pulled. Solana stood out as the lone positive performer with a modest inflow, but the broad trend was clearly negative for the two largest tokens. The scale of the exits underlines how ETF flows remain a major liquidity channel for institutional crypto exposure.
The wave of redemptions matters because ETF flows often presage short-term price pressure and reflect shifting risk appetite among large holders. Traders and portfolio managers will be watching whether this is a one-day repricing or the start of a sustained rotation away from BTC and ETH into smaller altcoins or cash. Expect volatility to persist and for market participants to monitor tomorrow’s flows, futures open interest, and macro headlines for confirmation.
