In the first half of 2026, spot Bitcoin ETFs experienced their first negative half-year with $5.4 billion in net outflows, ending a two-year trend of steady inflows. This decline is largely attributed to a shift in investor interest and capital towards artificial intelligence (AI) sectors. Blackrock's IBIT, the dominant Bitcoin ETF, faced $5 billion in outflows during May and June, reversing its previous inflow trend. Ether ETFs also saw $1.47 billion in outflows, reflecting a broader cooling in crypto enthusiasm despite ongoing growth in crypto infrastructure and staking products. Despite outflows, about $80 billion remains invested in Bitcoin ETFs, indicating sustained long-term interest.
