BlackRock's Bitcoin ETF lost $165M in a week amid Bitcoin price rally, but outflows are minor relative to total assets.

BlackRock's iShares Bitcoin Trust saw a $165.4 million outflow in the week ending October 16, 2026, making up 72% of the $228.4 million total Bitcoin ETF outflows that week. Despite this, Bitcoin's price remains strong, trading around $81,141, up 6.8% over the past month. The outflows represent only a tiny fraction of the $104.3 billion held in U.S. spot Bitcoin ETFs, suggesting investors are likely taking profits after recent gains rather than signaling a major Wall Street retreat. BlackRock's digital assets platform reported $79.6 billion in assets in Q3, and inflows on other days indicate continued interest in Bitcoin ETFs. Unless outflows grow substantially, the current sell-off appears to be a short-term pause rather than a long-term pullback.

iShares Bitcoin Trust (IBIT) trades at USD 46.15, down 0.94% as of Oct 18, 2026 21:21 WIB on Pluang. BlackRock Inc (BLK) shares are up 1.21% at USD 1,134.38 with a market cap of $175.68B. Despite recent outflows from IBIT, BlackRock's stock shows resilience while Bitcoin ETF interest remains active on Pluang.
