Additional gains came from Vaneck’s HODL, Morgan Stanley’s MSBT, and Fidelity’s FBTC, all of which posted smaller but meaningful additions.

Mixed trading week for bitcoin ETFs with two days each of inflows and outflows.

The inflows were partially offset by continued selling in several funds. Grayscale’s GBTC led the outflows with a $31.64 million exit, while Franklin’s EZBC, Ark & 21Shares’ ARKB, and Invesco’s BTCO also ended the session lower.

Ether ETFs continued to struggle, though the pace of withdrawals slowed considerably. The category posted net outflows of $5.65 million, extending its losing streak to four straight sessions.

Blackrock’s ETHA remained the largest drag with a $13.21 million exit, while Blackrock’s ETHB lost another $3.55 million. There were signs of selective buying beneath the surface. Fidelity’s Ether product attracted $6.88 million, while Vaneck’s ETHV and Franklin’s EZET added smaller inflows.
