During the week of February 10 to 14, 2025, the ETF Bitcoin and Ethereum recorded massive capital outings, reaching more than $ 700 million. This phenomenon worries investors and significantly impacts the price of cryptocurrencies. What factors have caused these withdrawals and what are the consequences?
+$ 700 million in Bitcoin and Ethereum outputs
From February 10 to 14, 2025, the funds negotiated on the stock market (ETF) backed by Bitcoin and Ethereum have experienced significant capital outings. Indeed, the Bitcoin ETF have recorded net outings of $ 651 million, including $ 251 million for the only day of February 12!
While ETHEREUM ETHERE has undergone withdrawal, which are certainly massive, but much less important by $ 63 million throughout the week. Thus, the total amount of outings for these two types of ETF reaches $ 713 million.
Several factors could explain these capital movements. First of all, increasing geopolitical tensions, including commercial conflicts between China and the United States, have caused uncertainty in the financial markets pushing investors to reduce their exposure to cryptocurrencies. Then, profits after a period of increase in Bitcoin and Ethereum prices, were able to encourage investors to withdraw their funds. Finally, uncertainties on the direction that the Fed will take after the meeting on the ICP, certainly pushed investors to withdraw their funds as a precautions.
Consequences on the BTC and the ETH
These massive outings of capital of the Bitcoin and Ethereum ETF had a significant impact on the prices of these crypto. The BTC recorded a drop in its price, going below $ 100,000, currently reaching a level of $ 97,800. Likewise, the ETH has seen its price decrease, currently establishing itself at 2,744 dollars.
These movements suggest increased selling pressure, reflecting a decrease in demand from institutional and detail investors. However, some analysts believe that these corrections could offer purchase opportunities for long -term investors, anticipating a possible prices resumption once the current uncertainties have been dissipated.
This week from February 10 to 14, 2025 was therefore marked by significant outputs of capital of Bitcoin and Ethereum ETF, influenced by various macroeconomic and geopolitical factors. The consequences on the prices of these cryptos underline the sensitivity of the market to the movements of institutional investors and to the global economic conditions.
