U.S. spot Bitcoin ETFs saw net outflows of about $910 million over the past two weeks, including about $230 million this week and $680 million the previous week; cumulative net outflows so far in October are about $615 million.
Although cumulative net inflows since launch remain around $57.3 billion, marginal fund flows have turned negative for two consecutive weeks.

Now that $CATE is catching attention and also memes paired with memes is a hot topic these days, don't forget a few weeks from now once $ETAC is trading in the millions, who told you about this coin sub 100k.
