The selling followed a weak stretch for crypto, with BTC slipping below $76,000 on November 5 amid a tech-stock selloff and more than $1 billion in crypto liquidations. CoinGlass noted that sustained net outflows may signal capital leaving ETFs or reducing risk exposure, while cautioning that ETF data is more useful for medium-term trends than short-term signals. Analysts stressed that ETF flows alone do not set prices, with exchange activity, derivatives positioning, and macro conditions also playing a role. Traders are watching whether the withdrawals reflect short-term portfolio moves or a lasting drop in institutional demand.
