Bitcoin & Ethereum ETF Outflows


1. Massive Capital Flight
• Bitcoin ETFs: A total net outflow of $159.1 million (approx. 225 billion KRW) on April 7, 2026.
• Ethereum ETFs: A total net outflow of $64.7 million (approx. 87.5 billion KRW).
• Key Point: Even BlackRock (IBIT, ETHA), which had seen steady inflows, turned to net outflows, signaling a widespread decline in investor sentiment.
2. The Cause: Geopolitical Risks
• The exodus was primarily driven by escalating tensions in the Middle East. Institutional investors shifted to a "cash-out" strategy to minimize risk exposure amid the uncertainty.
3. Outlook: The "Truce" as a Turning Point
• These outflow figures were recorded before the news of the two-week truce agreement between the U.S. and Iran was fully reflected.
• Experts predict that if the truce eases "risk-off" sentiment, capital may flow back into the market as early as next week, driven by dip-buying.
