- Published
- Updated
U.S. spot Bitcoin ETFs posted another day of withdrawals on Oct. 8, and several later reports also tracked the October totals higher as the two-day slide continued into Oct. 9. Ether funds were still in an eight-session outflow run in the same period, while one later update also broke out the seven-day totals for both Bitcoin and Ether products.

What it means
Bitcoin ETF traders and issuers would have seen the most immediate effect in the continued withdrawal data: Oct. 8 added another $244.1 million in net outflows, after the prior trading day’s $484.9 million exit. That same period also showed Ether funds still running an eight-session outflow streak, so both products were facing redemptions at the same time.
