Bitcoin ETFs See $82.2M Outflows, Flows Split by Fund

US spot Bitcoin ETFs posted $82.2 million in net outflows on June 17, according to Farside Investors. ARK 21Shares Bitcoin ETF (ARKB) had $43.5 million of redemptions, iShares Bitcoin Trust (IBIT) lost $30.8 million and Grayscale Bitcoin Trust (GBTC) recorded $15.5 million in outflows. Fidelity’s FBTC received $14.0 million and Morgan Stanley’s MSBT added $4.1 million.

The flows occurred on the same day the Federal Reserve released its June policy statement and projections during Kevin Warsh’s first meeting as chair. The Fed left the target federal funds range at 3.50%–3.75%, raised its median projected federal funds rate for 2026 to 3.8% from 3.4% in March and increased the median 2026 PCE inflation forecast to 3.6% from 2.7%.

Farside’s full-day ledger shows June 16 had a net inflow of $10.2 million. On June 17, outflows were concentrated in ARKB and IBIT, with additional outflows from BTCO and HODL. Several funds were flat while FBTC and MSBT posted inflows.

Fee levels varied across products. GBTC carries a 1.50% fee, higher than many competitors. Lower-fee funds appeared on both the inflow and outflow sides on June 17.

Bitcoin’s spot price traded near $63,918 on June 18, down about 1.1% over the prior 24 hours, with an estimated market capitalization near $1.28 trillion and roughly 58% market share by capitalization.

Regulatory mechanics affect how ETF flows translate to spot-market sales. After the SEC approved in-kind creation and redemption processes for crypto exchange-traded products in July 2025, some redemptions can be handled in-kind rather than settled in cash, while others may still require conversion to cash and sales of Bitcoin. ETF flow figures reflect changes in investor exposure through listed products but do not necessarily correspond to same-day spot trades or immediate changes in underlying Bitcoin supply.
