The Bitcoin ETF rebound comes as analysts flag slowing outflows. Early BTC holders trim positions rather than exit as BTC hovers near $70,000, according to Bitwise. US spot Bitcoin exchange-traded funds (ETFs) extended a tentative rebound after attracting $371 million in net inflows last Friday, adding to signs that institutional demand may be stabilizing following weeks of sustained selling. Spot Bitcoin (BTC) ETFs attracted a further $145 million in inflows on Monday as BTC hovered around $70,000, according to data from SoSoValue and CoinGecko. The inflows have yet to offset last week’s $318 million of outflows and $1.9 billion in redemptions year-to-date, but the slowing pace of losses may point to a potential trend reversal for crypto investment products, according to CoinShares.

Bitcoin ETFs may be sitting on their “biggest losses” since launching in January 2024, but there is a silver lining, according to an ETF analyst. US-based spot Bitcoin exchange-traded fund (ETF) holders are showing relatively firm conviction despite a four-month Bitcoin downtrend, according to ETF analyst James Seyffart. “The ETFs are still hanging in there pretty good,” Seyffart said in an X post on Wednesday. While Seyffart said that Bitcoin (BTC) ETF holders are facing their “biggest losses” since the US products launched in January 2024 — at a paper loss of around 42% with Bitcoin below $73,000 — he argues the recent outflows pale in comparison to the inflows during the market’s peak.  Read more

“China’s Ethereum” co-founders clash on New Year’s Eve over Neo’s treasury, major Asian economies warm up to Bitcoin ETFs. Asia Express Neo co-founders Erik Zhang and Da Hongfei clashed on New Years Eve in a heated public exchange, accusing each other of mismanaging the blockchains treasury and misrepresenting years of internal governance decisions.
