Overview
Spot Bitcoin ETF flows delivered a split message: a strong week of net inflows signaled renewed institutional participation, but the streak ended with a sharp single-day reversal. Coverage emphasized both the week’s strongest intake since early October and the Friday outflow that “ruined” what would have been a clean run of positive days.
