📉 Average IBIT Investor Now Down Around 40% as Spot Bitcoin ETFs Suffer Second-Worst Week on Record BlackRock’s spot Bitcoin ETF IBIT is now estimated to have an average investor drawdown of roughly 40%, following Bitcoin’s sharp decline from late-2025 highs and another brutal week of ETF outflows.


🪙 Spot Bitcoin ETFs just recorded their second-worst weekly performance since launch, with billions in capital exiting the market as institutional sentiment continues deteriorating.
⚠️ The sustained selling pressure comes amid:
• rising U.S. interest rate expectations
• stronger USD momentum
• geopolitical tensions
• and weakening appetite for risk assets globally.
📉 Bitcoin recently plunged from the $65K area toward $58K, triggering:
• heavy liquidations
• ETF redemptions
• and renewed concerns around leveraged crypto exposure.
🏦 Despite the short-term pain, BlackRock and other major issuers continue maintaining their ETF infrastructure and long-term Bitcoin offerings, signaling that institutional participation itself is not disappearing — even if investor confidence has weakened significantly.
🧠 Markets are now closely watching whether ETF outflows begin stabilizing, as continued institutional selling could extend pressure across the broader crypto market.
