- 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.

It notes that price cuts can offer short-term advantages, but retaining customers over the long term requires businesses to show that value justifies the price. Using YODY and An Phước as examples, it highlights understanding customer needs, improving materials and design, and maintaining quality as operations scale.
