IBIT has recorded a string of outflows since Dec. 20 for the first time in its history, data shows, ranging from $17 million to as much as Thursday’s figures.
Large outflows can be seen as a lack of confidence in the ETF's strategy, sector, or broader market segment. However, it could also be due to investors rebalancing their portfolios or taking profits, not necessarily a negative outlook on the ETF.
Other ETFs recorded inflows, however, with Bitwise’s BITB taking on $48 million and Fidelity’s FBTC taking in $36 million. Grayscale’s GBTC was the only other ETF with outflows at $23 million.
Bitcoin trades just under $97,000 at writing time, up 1.5% in the past 24 hours.
