Bitcoin ETFs in Weekly and Daily Context

The April 1 outflow followed a productive end to March for the Bitcoin ETF category. After the heavy selling of March 26 and March 27, which combined for $396.70 million in outflows, the final two sessions of March produced a recovery.

March 30 added $69.44 million, and March 31 followed with $117.63 million, the strongest single session since March 23’s $167.23 million result.

April 1’s reversal leaves the current partial week at $13.35 million in net inflows through three sessions, a modest positive result that keeps the week from turning negative.
