U.S. Crypto Funds Drive $1.17 Billion Exodus as Bitcoin and Ethereum Face Massive Outflows

3 hour ago

Crypto investment products witnessed a second consecutive week of significant outflows, totaling $1.17 billion, according to a CoinShares report dated November 10, 2025. This marks the largest weekly outflow since March 2024, with U.S. products leading the sell-off by accounting for $1.22 billion in exits.

Bitcoin (BTC) and Ethereum (ETH) bore the brunt of the redemptions, with Bitcoin products seeing $932 million withdrawn and Ethereum facing $438 million in outflows. The negative sentiment was exacerbated by political uncertainty, as a brief intraday rebound on hopes of a U.S. government shutdown resolution was quickly reversed by renewed outflows on Friday.

James Butterfill, Head of Research at CoinShares, stated in the report, "ETP Trading volumes remained elevated at US$43bn for the week as flows on an intraday basis briefly recovered on Thursday as optimism grew that progress was being made toward resolving the US government shutdown, but this proved short-lived, with renewed outflows emerging on Friday as those hopes faded."

Amid the broad decline, defensive strategies emerged, with short Bitcoin ETPs attracting $11.8 million in inflows—the highest weekly inflow for bearish Bitcoin bets since May. In contrast, altcoins defied the trend, with Solana (SOL) drawing $118 million in inflows, bringing its nine-week total to $2.1 billion. Hedera (HBAR) and Hyperliquid (HYPE) also posted gains of $26.8 million and $4.2 million, respectively.

Regional disparities were notable, with European investors showing resilience: Germany and Switzerland recorded inflows of $41.3 million and $49.7 million, underscoring a transatlantic divide in market response.

BTC Bitcoin $105795.90 +2.11%
Fundamental pressure is strongly negative with $932M in institutional outflows from Bitcoin products - the largest weekly redemption since March 2024. U.S. political uncertainty drove the exodus, briefly reversed by shutdown resolution hopes before renewed selling. While European inflows ($91M combined) and corporate accumulation (MSTR purchase) provide partial offsets, the dominant narrative is institutional risk-off positioning. Short-term pressure likely persists until political clarity emerges, though long-term structural adoption drivers remain intact.
Technical analysis
Technical indicators confirm bearish momentum: RSI at 38 (15m) shows oversold conditions, MACD negative across shorter timeframes, and price trading below key EMAs. Volume elevated during sell-off supports outflow narrative. Only 4h timeframe shows some momentum divergence.
ETH Ethereum $3539.54 +0.71%
Fundamentally bearish with $438M institutional outflows from U.S. funds, the largest weekly redemption since March 2024. Political uncertainty and fading government shutdown resolution hopes drove sustained selling pressure. While Republic Technologies' $100M validator investment provides long-term structural support, short-term sentiment remains dominated by institutional exodus. Expect continued downward pressure with potential stabilization only if European inflows ($49.7M Switzerland) offset U.S. outflows. Long-term outlook depends on whether altcoin rotation (SOL inflows) persists or capital returns to ETH.
Technical analysis
Technicals confirm bearish fundamentals: RSI (38-43) shows oversold conditions on lower timeframes, MACD negative across 15m/30m, and price below key EMAs. Volume elevated but dominated by selling pressure. ADX (14-28) indicates weak trend strength, suggesting continued consolidation with downward bias.
SOL Solana $167.13 +3.47%
Fundamentally bullish despite broader market outflows. SOL attracted $118M in inflows, extending its nine-week streak to $2.1B total. This signals strong institutional preference as capital rotates from BTC/ETH to altcoins. Political uncertainty drove defensive positioning, but SOL's consistent inflows suggest resilience. Short-term may see volatility from broader sentiment, but sustained institutional accumulation supports medium-term appreciation as SOL becomes a defensive altcoin play.
Technical analysis
Mixed signals across timeframes. 4H shows strong momentum (RSI 59, MACD positive) but overbought stochastic (83). Hourly RSI 58 suggests room for upside. Volume elevated vs 20-period average supports accumulation thesis. Key resistance at $169.3 pivot R1.
HBAR Hedera $0.19 +10.62%
HBAR demonstrates strong relative strength amid broad market outflows, attracting $26.8M in inflows as defensive capital rotates from BTC/ETH to select altcoins. The positive sentiment is reinforced by ISO 20022 adoption narrative, positioning HBAR as a banking infrastructure play. Short-term outlook is cautiously bullish despite macro headwinds, with HBAR likely to outperform majors. Long-term trajectory depends on sustained institutional interest and ISO 20022 integration progress.
Technical analysis
Technical indicators show mixed signals: 1H RSI at 75.68 indicates overbought conditions, while strong ADX (71.42) confirms uptrend momentum. Volume surge (RVOL 1.42) supports inflow narrative but warns of potential near-term consolidation given overextension.
HYPE Hyperliquid $41.50 +0.60%
HYPE defied the broader market outflow trend with $4.2M inflows, indicating strong relative strength amid institutional exodus from major coins. This suggests defensive rotation into select altcoins. However, the negative macro sentiment from U.S. political uncertainty and massive BTC/ETH outflows creates significant headwinds. Short-term volatility likely, but sustained inflows could support medium-term outperformance if altcoin rotation persists.
Technical analysis
Technical indicators show mixed signals: 4h MACD positive (0.46) and momentum bullish (1.43), but shorter timeframes display weakness with RSI at 32-45 (oversold/neutral) and negative momentum. Volume elevated (RVOL 1.55 on 15m) suggests active trading. Confirms potential for recovery but with near-term pressure.
