Bitcoin ETF flows follow past price trends, not predict future returns, says DWF Labs research.

New research from DWF Labs reveals that spot Bitcoin ETF flows mainly react to previous Bitcoin price movements rather than forecasting future returns. In the first half of 2026, these ETFs saw $5.4 billion in net outflows, marking the first negative period since their launch in 2024. The study highlights that investors tend to buy during rallies and sell during dips, behaving as trend followers. This means ETF flows are a lagging indicator, and traders should be cautious about interpreting inflows as signals for future price gains. Additionally, a large portion of inflows and outflows is concentrated in BlackRock’s IBIT fund, which heavily influences the overall ETF market. Despite outflows, fundamentals in the digital asset sector remain strong with ongoing infrastructure development and adoption growth.

Bitcoin ETF flows are the subject, with Pluang market data providing context. As of Oct 22, 2026 19:31 WIB, 6 of 50 major cryptocurrencies rose, 43 fell. THETA price was Rp3.556 with 79% sell orders, AXS price was Rp18.361 with 100% buy orders, and SUSHI price was Rp3.912 with 86% sell orders.
