U.S.-listed spot Bitcoin and Ether ETFs attracted $74.6 million and $53 million on Wednesday, ending a three-session Bitcoin outflow run totaling $1.16 billion and a seven-day Ether outflow streak of $657 million. Fidelity's FBTC led inflows with roughly $237 million, while BlackRock's IBIT shed another $201.2 million, extending its four-session outflow streak to $935.2 million. Bitcoin rebounded above $80,000 after Democrats' midterm victories, and the day's inflows narrowed Bitcoin's 2026 net outflows to around $79 million. CoinShares' James Butterfill said Bitcoin had largely priced in a Democratic sweep beforehand, while CK Zheng of ZX Squared Capital pointed to monetary liquidity and institutional flows as more immediate drivers.

- Bitcoin ETFs lose $1.16B as Bitwise calls selling ‘short-term’
US spot Bitcoin ETFs recorded more than $1 billion in net outflows over three trading days, including $116 million on Tuesday, bringing the total since Friday to $1.16 billion. Bitwise’s head of research André Dragosch attributed the withdrawals to a short-term risk-off environment rather than a structural shift, noting that 15 institutions surveyed had not reduced their exposure during the bear market. He said the outflows followed Binance’s $6.3 billion hack, which raised concerns about investor confidence, but that institutional funds held at Coinbase custody are kept in cold storage, unlike the hot wallets affected at Binance. Outflows slowed from $399 million on Monday and $643 million on Friday, and the Crypto Fear & Greed Index rose to 34 from 26 but stayed in the “Fear” category, while Bitcoin gained about 1.6% to near $78,000.
- BlackRock’s IBIT sees biggest Bitcoin ETF outflows since June
BlackRock's iShares Bitcoin Trust (IBIT) recorded 405.3 million USD in net outflows on Monday, its largest daily outflow since June 26, as US spot Bitcoin ETFs opened November with 398.6 million USD in net withdrawals, according to Farside Investors. Fidelity's Wise Origin Bitcoin Fund (FBTC) attracted 6.7 million USD, partly offsetting the outflows. The funds had recorded 515 million USD in net outflows in October and about 38 million USD so far in 2026. Bitcoin briefly fell below 76,400 USD, its lowest since August, amid broader volatility following the 6.3 billion USD Binance hack. US spot Ether ETFs also saw about 140 million USD in net outflows, extending their losing streak to six trading days after a record 1.61 billion USD in monthly outflows in October. Brickken CEO Edwin Mata said the outflows should not be read as a rejection of digital assets, as investors reduce exposure when uncertainty rises.
- Bitcoin ETF outflows hit $643M, led by BlackRock and Fidelity
Bitcoin ETFs saw net outflows of $643 million on Friday, led by BlackRock at $233.7 million, followed by Fidelity at $201 million and Arc B at $129.5 million. The funds had also recorded net outflows in each of the four preceding sessions, and the week was still only down $202 million. The host notes that ETF flows tend to react to market moves because these funds don't trade 24/7 like Bitcoin, so the impact of after-hours events often shows up the next day. He contrasts this with the worst hack in history, worth $6 billion, and a sharp tech sell-off in which Intel fell 30% and Alphabet and Amazon were each down about 12% at one point overnight, while Bitcoin fell only 4–5% and gold also declined.
- From Uptober to Hacktober: Are Bitcoin’s seasonal patterns becoming obsolete?
Bitcoin fell 7.3% in October 2026, following a roughly 4% decline a year earlier, according to CoinGlass data, defying the month’s historically bullish “Uptober” reputation. Amid a wave of crypto security incidents, including Binance’s record $6.3 billion hack, industry figures turned to labels such as “Black October” and “Hacktober.” Andrew Yang of Kaiko noted that October has posted Bitcoin’s highest median return at 15.4% and gains in 10 of 13 years through 2025, while Bitcoin’s typical monthly move has shrunk from 14% in 2013–2016 to 9.6% since 2024. Analysts such as Justin d’Anethan of Arctic Digital said ETF flows and corporate buyers are shaped more by liquidity, interest rates and investment mandates than by seasonal narratives, and US spot Bitcoin ETFs recorded $515 million in net outflows in October. Other analysts caution that two losses do not settle the question, as October has generally performed better in bull markets.
- Bitcoin ETFs sink into October outflows with $643M exit after Binance hack
US spot Bitcoin ETFs saw $643 million in net withdrawals on Friday, pushing October's net flows to a $515 million outflow, their first negative month since June, according to SoSoValue. The sell-off followed Binance's confirmation that hackers stole about $6.3 billion in crypto assets, and Bitcoin's drop to $77,000 the previous day. BlackRock's IBIT led Friday's outflows with $234 million, followed by Fidelity's FBTC with $201 million. OneKey's founder warned that IBIT could face similar security risks because it relies heavily on Coinbase to hold its Bitcoin, while Ether ETFs recorded a record $1.61 billion in October net outflows.

- France budget rejection sidelines stablecoin tax, wallet reporting
The French National Assembly rejected the revenue section of the 2027 state budget at first reading by 458–0, with two abstentions, according to the official voting record. The government will now send the Senate the original budget text without the three crypto-related amendments lawmakers had adopted: a tax on gains from crypto-to-stablecoin conversions, a disclosure requirement for self-custodied crypto holdings of at least 100,000 euros ($112,000), and higher penalties, from 10,000 euros to 50,000 euros, for crypto platforms that fail to provide information to tax authorities. The proposals could be reintroduced in the Senate, but they would still need to survive the rest of the budget process to become law.
- Nebius Stock: The Bull Case, the Bear Case, and My Call Before Nov. 12
Nebius (NBIS) shares have fallen about 47% from their June 18 record close of $286.69 and are near $152 after rising about 7% on Nov. 3. The company targets annualized run-rate revenue of $7 billion to $9 billion by the end of 2026, versus $3.0 billion at the end of June. To fund expected 2026 capital expenditures of $20 billion to $25 billion, it has relied on outside money, including sales of 12.7 million shares, about $5.75 billion in convertible notes, and a $3.5 billion Citigroup facility that lasts 364 days. Three customers accounted for 59% of second-quarter revenue, and the author chooses to wait for the Q3 report on Nov. 12, saying a September run-rate of around $4.6 billion would keep Nebius on track for the low end of its target.
- A $10,000 Investment in Goldman Sachs in 2016 Is Now Worth More Than $60,000. Its Record Revenue This Year Says the Run Isn't Over.
Based on the article, a $10,000 investment in Goldman Sachs made in 2016 with quarterly dividends reinvested would be worth about $61,900 today, a 20% annualized return.

The bank raised its quarterly dividend 11% to $5 per share, and the author considers the stock attractive for long-term holding given its price-to-earnings ratio of 12.

- 1 Reason to Hold Coca-Cola Stock for 10 Years
As of midday on November 3, Coca-Cola shares were up about 35% this year, versus roughly 11% for the S&P 500. The article argues the key reason to hold the stock is its ability to raise prices without losing customers: price increases added about four percentage points to last quarter's sales growth while unit case volume still rose 5%. Over the past 50 years, annual volume has fallen only once, during the pandemic, and Kantar ranked Coca-Cola the world's most valuable food and beverage brand. However, management said cost pressures have intensified and expects value to remain a major consumer concern in 2027, which could shrink margins if price increases fail to cover costs. The stock yields about 2.2%, roughly twice the S&P 500's yield, and Coca-Cola has raised its dividend for 64 straight years.
