Bitcoin ETFs lose $825M in five days as US becomes 'biggest seller' of BTC
Bitcoin ETF performance remained negative on Christmas Eve as a short final US trading session produced another $175 million in net outflow
Analysis: Bitcoin institutional bid to return “soon”
Data from UK-based investment company Farside Investors confirmed that on Christmas Eve, net outflows from the US spot Bitcoin exchange-traded funds (ETFs) totaled over $175 million.
Bitcoin institutional capital saw no reason to wrap up for the holidays while Wall Street was still open this week.
Farside shows that a lengthy spate of selling continued right up until the last pre-Christmas US trading session ended, with net outflows at $175.3 million.

Commenting, market participants attributed the ETFs’ weak performance to seasonality.
“Most of the selling is due to tax loss harvesting, which means it'll be over in a week,” trader Alek wrote in a post on X.
Alek further noted that Friday’s record options expiry event could be impacting risk appetite.
“This is temporary and institutions will back to bidding soon,” he added.
