Bitcoin and Ether ETF inflows diverge from BlackRock fund outflows

Bitcoin and Ether ETFs attracted a combined $128 million as the crypto market recovered, with fund-level flows showing clear divergence.

Bitcoin and Ether ETFs attracted a combined $128 million as the crypto market recovered, with fund-level flows showing clear divergence. Bitcoin (BTC) is trading at $80,314.00. This is an original TLT brief based on reporting by Cointelegraph, with live market data added, as of Thu, 05 Nov 2026 12:00:04 UTC.

Why it matters

The $128 million headline inflow masks a sharp split between Fidelity and BlackRock products, showing that ETF demand was not evenly distributed across issuers following the midterms.

Key takeaways
  • Bitcoin and Ether ETFs drew a combined $128 million
  • Fidelity led Bitcoin ETF inflows
  • BlackRock’s IBIT lost $201 million over four sessions
  • Bitcoin rose 2.62% over 24 hours

Cointelegraph reported that Bitcoin and Ether ETFs collectively attracted $128 million in inflows following the midterms, as crypto assets rebounded. The available report did not provide a breakdown between the two ETF categories or identify the amount attributed to Fidelity.

Fidelity led the Bitcoin ETF inflows, according to Cointelegraph. BlackRock’s IBIT moved in the opposite direction, recording $201 million in outflows and extending its losing streak to four consecutive trading sessions.

That divergence highlights a more selective flow picture beneath the combined $128 million headline figure. Strong demand for Fidelity products and continued withdrawals from IBIT occurred during the same session, although the report did not explain what drove the differences between the funds.

Bitcoin traded at $80,341, up 2.62% over 24 hours and 0.52% over seven days, while its market capitalization stood at $1.62 trillion. The broader crypto market was broadly higher and carried a $2.76 trillion total capitalization, while the Fear and Greed index registered 50, corresponding to a neutral reading. Continued ETF flows, Fidelity’s relative strength and whether IBIT’s outflow streak persists are the clearest points to monitor next.

What this means in naira

At today's peer-to-peer rate, 1 BTC ≈ ₦111.03M (about $80,314.00), up 2.4% over 24 hours. The naira itself trades about 2.7% above the official rate on the P2P market, so a Nigerian buyer's effective cost differs from the headline dollar price.
