U.S. crypto ETFs saw significant outflows last week, with Bitcoin and Ether funds leading the trend. Bitcoin (BTC) is trading at $82,993.00. This is an original TLT brief synthesising 3 outlets (Crypto.news, CoinDesk, Cointelegraph), plus live market data, as of Sun, 11 Oct 2026 09:00:04 UTC.
The substantial outflows from crypto ETFs, particularly in Bitcoin and Ether, indicate potential shifts in investor sentiment and could impact market liquidity. Meanwhile, Thailand's new regulations signal growing institutional acceptance of crypto investment vehicles in Asia.
- U.S. crypto ETFs saw $1.29B in net outflows from Oct. 5-9.
- Bitcoin and Ether funds accounted for most withdrawals.
- Thailand to allow crypto ETF trading from Oct. 16.
- Bitcoin ETF outflows reached $244M on Oct. 5.
Multiple outlets, including Crypto.news, CoinDesk, and Cointelegraph, confirm that U.S. crypto ETFs experienced $1.29 billion in net outflows from October 5-9, with Bitcoin and Ether funds being the primary sources of withdrawals. Cointelegraph specifies that Bitcoin ETFs lost $244 million on October 5, while Ether funds saw an outflow streak of eight sessions, totaling $641 million. However, while Crypto.news mentions Solana, Hyperliquid, and Zcash funds in their dataset, specific outflow figures for these are not corroborated by other outlets. Additionally, CoinDesk and Cointelegraph report on Thailand's new crypto ETF regulations, set to take effect on October 16, allowing trading exclusively on the Stock Exchange of Thailand, but this detail is not covered by Crypto.news.
U.S. crypto exchange-traded funds (ETFs) experienced significant outflows last week, with a total of $1.29 billion in net withdrawals recorded across various funds, according to data from Farside Investors cited by Crypto.news. The majority of these outflows were attributed to 
Bitcoin and Ether funds, indicating potential shifts in investor sentiment towards these major cryptocurrencies.
Cointelegraph reports that Bitcoin ETFs saw a substantial outflow of $244 million on October 5, while Ether funds continued their outflow streak for the eighth consecutive session, losing $641 million over the period. This suggests a possible trend of investors reducing their exposure to these digital assets through ETF vehicles.
In contrast, Thailand is moving towards embracing crypto ETFs, with new regulations set to take effect on October 16, as reported by CoinDesk and Cointelegraph. These rules will allow Thai asset managers to launch crypto ETFs on the Stock Exchange of Thailand, with Bitcoin and Ether initially eligible. This development highlights the growing institutional acceptance of crypto investment vehicles in Asia.
The data from Farside Investors also mentions 
Solana, Hyperliquid, and Zcash funds, but specific outflow figures for these are not detailed in the corroborated coverage. Hyperliquid's Total Value Locked (TVL) stands at $346.08 million, according to DeFiLlama, showing a slight 1.1% decrease over the past week.
The broader crypto market remains relatively stable, with a total market cap of $2.87 trillion. Bitcoin is currently priced at $82,965, up 0.26% in the last 24 hours, while 
Ethereum is at $2,498.39, also up 0.17% in the same period. The Fear & Greed Index stands at 61, indicating a 'Greed' sentiment among investors.
