US spot Bitcoin (CRYPTO: $BTC) exchange-traded funds (ETFs) recorded $462.7 million in net outflows last week, ending a three-week run of strong inflows as investors pulled money from the products across the last four trading sessions.
According to data from SoSoValue, the funds lost $46.7 million on Tuesday, followed by $120.2 million on Wednesday and a larger $282.7 million withdrawal on Thursday. Outflows eased to $13.2 million on Friday, but the four-day losing streak marked the first weekly reversal since mid-August.
The shift came after investors poured about $3.8 billion into spot Bitcoin ETFs over the previous three weeks, helping support Bitcoin’s move above $80,000.
