Bitcoin ETF inflows reach $176M as US funds log a second day of gains

Bitcoin ETF inflows reached about $176 million on Tuesday, marking a second straight trading day of gains for US-listed spot funds. The recovery brought their two-day intake to $286 million and left October’s net outflows at about $26 million, according to SoSoValue data.

Monday’s inflows totaled $110 million. The two positive sessions followed nearly $774 million in withdrawals on Thursday and Friday, while year-to-date net inflows stood at roughly $850 million.

The recovery in Bitcoin ETF inflows coincided with a modest improvement in sentiment. Alternative.me’s Crypto Fear & Greed Index increased from 48 the previous day to 51, still within its Neutral category. That remained below the reading of 63, classified as Greed, a week earlier.

CoinGecko data showed Bitcoin (BTC) trading at approximately $80,818, a gain of 1.6% over 24 hours.

Bitcoin ETF inflows contrast with Ether withdrawals

US spot Ether ETFs recorded about $149 million in net withdrawals across Monday and Tuesday, moving in the opposite direction from their Bitcoin counterparts. Those withdrawals followed four consecutive weeks in which Ether funds lost money on a net basis.

Ether ETFs’ cumulative October net outflows reached $1.32 billion through Tuesday. As a result, the month was on pace to register the heaviest net outflows seen since November 2025, despite Bitcoin funds narrowing their own monthly figures to near breakeven.
