A new DWF Labs report shared with CryptoSlate found that US spot Bitcoin ETFs recorded outflows in seven of eight major selloffs. The funds consistently lost money during declines of at least 15% since their January 2024 launch. This challenges the idea that Wall Street investors would steady prices during downturns.

Why it matters

US spot Bitcoin ETFs saw outflows in seven of eight major selloffs, according to the report.
The funds lost money during every market drop of at least 15% since their January 2024 launch.
ETF selling during downturns could add pressure to Bitcoin prices when the market is already falling.

What to watch next

Watch for daily ETF flow data during the next market drop of 15% or more to see whether the pattern holds.

Tether's Extra Reserves Almost Double to $8B on $1.5B Q3 Profit

Tether, a stablecoin issuer, said its excess reserves nearly doubled to $8 billion and its Q3 profit reached $1.5 billion. Its US Treasury holdings are now comparable to those of major foreign holders, and its Bitcoin reserves were worth $8.37 billion at the end of September. For traders, this shows how large a stablecoin issuer's backing has grown and how much it is tied to Treasuries and Bitcoin.

Binance Suffers $6.4B Hack, but Bitcoin Falls Only About 3%

Binance lost about $6.4 billion in what is the largest crypto hack on record. Bitcoin dropped about 3%, far less than the nearly 11% fall seen in 2018, when the exchange was last attacked. The milder reaction may matter for traders watching how the market handles exchange security risks.
