Bitcoin, Ethereum ETFs See $30B October Inflows Despite Recent Dips
Bitcoin and Ethereum ETFs have seen significant activity in recent days, with BlackRock's iShares Bitcoin Trust leading inflows nearing $100 billion in net assets. Meanwhile, the total crypto market cap dipped to $3.64 trillion, and Bitcoin price fell to $107,700 on Tuesday.
Bitcoin ETFs experienced net redemptions of -$40.47 million for the fourth day, while Ethereum ETFs had net redemptions of -$146 million for the third day. Despite this, total crypto ETF assets are approaching $1 trillion, with an estimated $30 billion net inflow in October 2025 alone. This deal is seen as a strategic policy tailwind for mining and hardware supply chains.
President Trump's signing of a critical minerals/rare-earths deal with Australia has also drawn attention. However, trade friction with China remains a downside risk. Long-term holder (LTH) sales remain elevated, capping near-term upside, and continued LTH distribution may limit gains. Although, Data and ETFs have absorbed much supply, this cannot continue indefinitely.
In summary, while Bitcoin and Ethereum ETFs have seen significant inflows and outflows, the total crypto market cap and Bitcoin price have dipped. The critical minerals deal with Australia and trade friction with China are key factors influencing the market. Long-term holder sales and distribution patterns are also shaping the near-term outlook.
