🤯 Bitcoin ETF Exodus: A $860 Million Crypto Circus!

by

In a staggering spectacle akin to the mystical wonders of Pontevedra, Bitcoin found itself under considerable pressure as substantial investment funds decided to abandon ship âš“, with an urgency not witnessed in the annals of fiscal months.

Following a computationally significant report by Farside Investors – a name as enigmatic as the movement itself – it became apparent that spot Bitcoin ETFs had vanished into thin air, leaving behind a trail of $866 million in withdrawals on a fateful Thursday. This dramatic exodus ensued even in the wake of the United States’ government reopening after some 43 days of bureaucratic limbo, which, as we’ve all learned, is curiously synonymous with not-a-day-indecidulous chance.

The ensuing cascade of funds fleeing these ventures startled the traders, who sat idly by, eyes glazed over, expecting renewed activity once the political quagmire was cleared – a scene reminiscent of metropolitan foot traffic once the feared traffic light just turns green.

Heavy Withdrawals Make Light Work of Major Bitcoin Funds

New data, likely conjured by the alchemical arts rather than mere business acumen, confirmed these mass exoduses marked not one, but two consecutive sessions where US-listed spot Bitcoin ETFs fell prey to losses. This was no solitary source of unrest; SoSoValue, another soothsayer in market prediction, reported nearly $897 million absconding on the selfsame day, an action that hinted at a retreat by the institutions-a gathering that’d even make the Cossacks think twice.

Such a seismic shift drew gasps and aghast looks from market watchers as if the ETF inflows decided to waltz away without an encore, shaking the foundation of Bitcoin’s once formidable performance earlier in 2025. Was this the crypto-new York-iodefense crumbling before our very eyes?

“Those who ventured into the digital maw of Bitcoin 6 to 12 moons past perch precariously with a basis near 94K.”

“In my humble yet informed opinion, I posit that the bear cycle doesn’t don its hat of legitimacy until we make acquaintances with yonder number. Patience is a virtue, lest we don youthful folly of jumping too swiftly.” – Ki Young Ju (@ki_young_ju) November 14, 2025

Ki Young Ju, from the mystical lands of CryptoQuant, issued a stark omen: should Bitcoin venture below the hallowed $94,000 mark, the broader uptrend might say adieu, having identified this enchanted threshold as the average demesne of buyers who entered these mystical markets over the previous year.

XRP Fund Glistens Amidst Financial Maelstrom

While Bitcoin lamented its woes, a fledgling altcoin venture strayed from the pack, basking in its debut’s glory. The Canary Capital XRP (XRPC) ETF, in a roaring landing, boasted $58 million in trading volume on its opening act, merely edging past a Solana ETF’s previous performance earlier this year. Yet, with the majesty of a fledgling phoenix’s first flight, it stood tall amidst a panorama with roughly 900 ETFs launched in 2025.

Furthermore, Ether ETFs, akin to a leaf in an autumn breeze, experienced $259 million in departures on Thursday, while Solana ETFs, delightfully stubborn, continued their 13-day rhythmic dance of inflows, welcoming another $1.5 million into its embrace.

Rate Cut Queries Stir the Crypto Cauldron Further

Bitcoin dipped beneath the $100,000 barricade on Friday, wandering around $96,900 in the wee hours of 00:00 ET (05:00 GMT). It flirted with danger, reaching a nadir of $96,650, propelled by burgeoning skepticism over a Federal Reserve rate cut in December – a topic more confounding than a Russian salad on a dim Sunday morning.

Market connoisseurs now bet on just a 45% likelihood of witnessing a modest 25 basis point cut at the upcoming December assembly – a marked decline from 63% a mere week prior. This fiscal mystery, exacerbated by an ungodly shutdown, left critical inflationary and job-economic pellets missing in action, confounding the Fed as it navigated with only glimpses of clarity amidst a fog of caution among risk-tolerant traders.

Mixed Sentiments As Crypto Saunters Into Weekend Wonderland

The air was thick with institutional coolness, as evidenced by repeated withdrawals and an air of lethargy akin to a molasses-filled tea room. Both those versed in analysis and famed risk seers ponder if this quiet bear market has been lurking for months-a wolf in financial sheep’s clothing.

Hunter Horsley of Bitwise, with a smile hiding sly market wisdom, suggested that the trough of downturn might be nearing its end, despite the lack of overt jubilation from broader risk markets, which dozed off during the proceedings.

But alas! Cautionary buzz could yet extend Bitcoin’s losing streak into history’s pages-a streak now teetering on edging into a third week, much like a Tolstoyan novel lengthily engaging its humble audience.
