Bitcoin News Today: Bitcoin ETF Outflows Signal Maturing Market Amid Volatility

Bitcoin ETFs Recorded Sharpest Weekly Exits Since February Amid Macro Jitters, Data Shows

U.S. Bitcoin exchange-traded funds (ETFs) logged $869 million in outflows on November 13, 2025, marking the second-largest single-day withdrawal in their history, according to data from Sosovalue. The exodus followed Bitcoin's price slipping below $100,000 for the first time since June, triggering investor caution amid broader macroeconomic uncertainties. BlackRock's IBIT and Fidelity's FBTC led the losses, with $256 million and $120 million in redemptions, respectively, while total ETF assets dipped to $130 billion—a 6.7% slice of Bitcoin's market cap.

The selloff coincided with a broader crypto market slump, as Bitcoin's price dropped 5.44% to $99,207 within 24 hours, according to CoinMarketCap. Over $1.1 billion in leveraged positions were liquidated in the same period, with long positions accounting for $968 million of the losses, per Coinglass. Analysts drew parallels to the 2022 FTX collapse, noting Bitcoin's Relative Strength Index (RSI) had hit oversold levels not seen since 2022.

Despite the short-term volatility, long-term inflows since January 2024 remain robust at $59.34 billion, underscoring institutional confidence in the asset class. New products, including XRP and multi-coin ETFs, are gaining traction. Canary Capital's XRP ETF (XRPC) surged to $26 million in trading volume within 30 minutes of its debut, surpassing Bloomberg's $17 million estimate. 21Shares also launched the FTSE Crypto 10 Index ETF, offering exposure to a diversified basket of cryptocurrencies.

Globally, crypto ETPs saw $1.2 billion in weekly outflows, driven by post-liquidity cascade volatility and uncertainty over U.S. rate cuts, according to CoinShares. U.S.-based funds accounted for $1.22 billion of the outflows, while Switzerland and Germany recorded modest inflows of $49.7 million and $41.3 million, respectively. Solana ETPs bucked the trend with $118 million in inflows over the past week, bringing their nine-week total to $2.1 billion.

Analysts remain divided on the market's trajectory. Ki Young Ju of CryptoQuant noted the bull market remains intact unless Bitcoin falls below the key $94,000 level, which marks the average cost basis for recent investors. Meanwhile, 10X Research warned the sector has entered a bear phase, citing weak ETF inflows and heavy selling by long-term holders.

The selloff also highlighted regulatory and structural shifts. BlackRock's BUIDL Fund expanded to Binance and BNB Chain, while Bitfarms pivoted from Bitcoin mining to AI infrastructure. Canary Capital's proposed "Canary MOG ETF", a memecoin-focused product, signals further diversification in crypto investing.

Bitcoin ETF outflows reflect a maturing market where short-term jitters do not eclipse foundational growth. With $130 billion in assets under management and new products expanding access, the sector's resilience suggests a recovery phase, albeit with heightened scrutiny. As Duncan Moir of 21Shares noted, "Regulatory clarity and institutional adoption will drive the next wave of growth."
