Bitcoin, Ether ETFs Lose $549M as Ether Outflows Near $1B

U.S. spot Bitcoin and Ether exchange-traded funds recorded $549 million in combined net outflows in the week ended Oct. 18, according to SoSoValue data.

Bitcoin ETFs accounted for about $229 million of the withdrawals, while Ether ETFs recorded roughly $320 million in net outflows. Ether funds therefore had larger weekly withdrawals than Bitcoin funds.

The figures marked a second consecutive week of net outflows for Bitcoin ETFs and a third straight week of losses for Ether ETFs. Combined outflows slowed from $1.22 billion in the previous week.

Spot Ether ETFs have recorded about $955 million in net outflows in October through Oct. 18, the largest monthly outflow this year. Despite the October withdrawals, Ether ETFs have recorded about $610 million in net inflows in 2026. Bitcoin ETFs have attracted roughly $259 million during the same period.

Ether fell about 5% over the seven days to around $2,433. Bitcoin declined 1.3% to approximately $82,783, according to CoinGecko data available at publication.
