What to know:
- U.S. spot bitcoin ETFs ended a 13-session outflow streak with a modest $3.05 million net inflow, after more than $4.4 billion in redemptions since mid-May.
- Total bitcoin ETF holdings have fallen about 7.2% from their October 2025 peak to 1.277 million BTC, while ether ETFs also broke a 17-day outflow run with a $19.30 million inflow driven entirely by BlackRock’s ETHA.
- Hyperliquid’s HYPE ETFs have attracted steady demand since their May launch, reaching $185.68 million in assets with net inflows every trading day, even as broader crypto and risk markets softened alongside declines in AI-linked stocks.

The total bitcoin assets under management (AUM) in U.S. spot Bitcoin ETFs stand at 1.277 million BTC, according to CheckonChain. That is slightly above the February 23 low of 1.274 million BTC, reached as bitcoin recovered from its February trough near $60,000.
Bitcoin ETF holdings peaked at 1.376 million BTC in October 2025. Since then, AUM has declined by approximately 99,000 BTC, or 7.2%, to current levels.
Spot ether ETFs ended a parallel streak that ran 17 sessions, taking in $19.30 million in net inflows on the day. The entire figure came from BlackRock’s ETHA, with every other ether ETF logging zero net flow.
Total ether ETF assets sit at $9.78 billion, or 4.57% of ether’s circulating market capitalization, with cumulative inflows since the 2024 launch at $11.21 billion. The category remains roughly $2 billion below its asset peak from earlier in the year.
