Bitcoin and Ethereum ETFs Bleed Over $520 Million in Single-Day Outflows

Bitcoin exchange-traded funds recorded significant outflows on February 12, signaling renewed institutional caution across the crypto market.

Combined net outflows for U.S. spot Bitcoin ETFs came in at – $410.2 million, marking one of the larger single-day withdrawals this month.

Bitcoin ETF Flows

The bulk of the pressure was concentrated in major products. BlackRock’s IBIT saw $157.6 million in outflows, while Fidelity’s FBTC lost $104.1 million. Grayscale’s GBTC recorded a $59.1 million decline, and ARK’s ARKB shed $31.5 million. Smaller products also contributed modest negative flows, reinforcing the broad-based nature of the pullback.

The scale of withdrawals indicates that large-cap crypto exposure remains sensitive to macro positioning and broader market sentiment.

Ethereum ETF Flows

Ethereum ETFs followed a similar trajectory, posting total net outflows of – $113.1 million for the session. BlackRock’s ETHA and Fidelity’s FETH led withdrawals with $29.0 million and $43.5 million respectively, while Grayscale’s ETHE recorded an additional $13.4 million in outflows.

The consistent red trend suggests investors remain cautious on ETH positioning despite recent structural developments in the ecosystem.

Solana ETF Flows

Solana ETFs diverged from the broader trend, recording a modest $2.7 million net inflow. Bitwise’s BSOL contributed $2.1 million, with smaller positive allocations across other issuers.
Although relatively small in size, the inflow stands out given the broader negative tone across Bitcoin and Ethereum products.

XRP ETF Flows

XRP spot ETFs posted a net – $6.42 million outflow. While Canary and Franklin products saw inflows of $1.44 million and $737,470 respectively, Grayscale’s GXRP experienced a sharp $8.91 million withdrawal, tipping the daily balance negative.
Mixed flows suggest selective positioning rather than broad accumulation in XRP-related products.

Overall, the session reflects a defensive tilt among institutional participants. While ETF flows can shift quickly, the magnitude of Bitcoin and Ethereum outflows highlights continued sensitivity to macro developments and market structure dynamics across digital assets.
