ARKB, GBTC, and IBIT spearheaded the Bitcoin ETF redemptions, whereas BlackRock’s ETHA propelled Ether ETFs into weekly net additions.
United States spot Bitcoin exchange-traded funds registered $462.7 million in net redemptions over the past week, breaking a pattern of three consecutive weeks of additions, whereas Ether funds moved in the opposite direction with nearly $197 million in net inflows.
Based on data from Farside Investors, the capital exits spanned all four trading days from Tuesday through Friday. These withdrawals followed the most robust three-week inflow sequence of 2026, which concluded after the products lost $166.8 million across the initial two days of a holiday-abbreviated week.
Selling pressure intensified on Thursday when US spot Bitcoin funds registered net withdrawals of $282.7 million, marking their heaviest single-day exit since July. Friday’s redemption volume moderated to $13.2 million, yet it prolonged the negative stretch to four consecutive trading sessions, as reported by SoSoValue.

BlackRock’s iShares Bitcoin Trust ETF posted $52.5 million in net outflows for the week, while the Fidelity Wise Origin Bitcoin Fund shed $50.7 million.
Notwithstanding the weekly turnaround, spot Bitcoin ETFs continue to maintain a positive flow balance for September, accumulating roughly $307.3 million in net additions through Friday’s close.
Ether ETFs record weekly inflows
Conversely, US spot Ether funds attracted $196.9 million in net additions over that same four-session window, according to Farside Investors.
The Ether products experienced mixed momentum earlier in the week, suffering $24.3 million in withdrawals on Tuesday, securing $34.7 million in inflows on Wednesday, and encountering $29.9 million in exits on Thursday. The weekly performance flipped into positive territory on Friday as the instruments pulled in $216.4 million in net additions.
BlackRock’s iShares Ethereum Trust ETF spearheaded Friday’s inflows by capturing $148.8 million, followed by the 21Shares Core Ethereum ETF, which brought in $29.1 million.
