According to the data from Farside Investors, BlackRock sold $70.7 million worth of Bitcoin (BTC) ETFs and $33.4 million worth of Ethereum (ETH) ETFs on March 25, 2026. The move coincides with Bitcoin (BTC) falling to the $69,000 price level on the same day, after failing to break past the $71,000 mark. According to CoinGecko’s Bitcoin data, BTC’s price has fallen nearly 3% in the last 24 hours, 0.7% in the last week, 0.6% in the 14-day charts, and 21% since March 2025. However, the original crypto has maintained a near 10% gain over the previous month.
Like Bitcoin (BTC), Ethereum (ETH) is also facing substantial losses, but has maintained the $2000 price level. According to CoinGecko data, ETH’s price has dipped nearly 5% in the last 24 hours and 3.8% over the previous week. However, while Bitcoin (BTC) has dipped since last March, ETH is up by 0.7% in the same time frame.
Will BlackRock’s Bitcoin And Ethereum ETF Sales Lead To Further Price Dips?
ETF flows could be a signal for what financial institutions are anticipating. Bitcoin (BTC) has struggled to gain steam over the last few months, and the recent US-Iran conflict has added substantial selling pressure on investors. Additionally, President Trump has hinted at the potential of boots on the ground if things do not cool off between the two countries.

Bitcoin (BTC) and the larger crypto market’s recent correction could also be due to high chances of interest rates remaining unchanged. Higher interest rates often lead to investors taking less risks as borrowing is difficult. Moreover, the market has moved to a risk-off approach over the last few months. The low risk appetite has kept investors away from cryptocurrencies, leading to price stagnation.
