Data from Farside Investors showed that provisional net inflows into U.S. spot Bitcoin ETFs shrank to $82.9 million between September 28 and October 2, 2026. That figure marks a sharp decline compared to the $2.39 billion in inflows accumulated during the prior week of September 21-25.
Despite the lower volume, Bitcoin ETF products still saw fresh inflows on four out of five trading days throughout the week. Outflows during Wednesday’s session were the only day that chipped away at the total weekly accumulation. The final tally for the week also excludes Friday trading data from BlackRock’s IBIT, which was not yet fully available when compiled on October 3.
Outflows Pressure Ethereum and Solana
Ethereum investment products faced the opposite conditions. Spot Ethereum ETFs posted $118 million in net outflows over the same timeframe, reversing course from the previous week when they brought in $689.8 million in fresh capital. An initial inflow of $17.1 million was logged on Monday, but sustained redemptions weighed on figures across the subsequent four sessions without interruption.
Amid the broader capital reversal, BlackRock’s ETHA still managed to maintain $6.5 million in net inflows through Thursday. Conversely, its companion product, ETHB, recorded zero movement with no traces of inflows or outflows across four consecutive trading days.
Dwindling investor sentiment also spilled over to Solana ETF products. Weekly Solana fund flows plummeted to just $800,000, down sharply from the $188.1 million secured the week prior. The BSOL product salvaged Solana’s aggregate weekly tally thanks to a $9.7 million capital injection on Monday.
Zcash Loses Tens of Millions of Dollars
The steepest weekly withdrawal hit the Zcash ETF (ZCSH), which suffered $77.6 million in total outflows. Those redemptions reversed momentum and erased the $35.2 million in inflows that had entered Zcash investment vehicles the previous week.
Cointelegraph’s account on X published a slightly different figure, reporting that spot ZEC ETFs saw up to $93.56 million in outflows within a single week. The difference in calculations likely stems from different weekly cutoff dates compared to Farside’s calendar benchmark.
The shifting pattern of institutional capital flows across the five trading sessions underscores a specific strategy practiced by investors. Major asset managers are able to pivot within days, maintaining holdings in premier coins while shedding altcoin allocations when anticipating potential trend shifts across the crypto market.
