Bitcoin ETF Outflows Continue Amid Market Rebound

Key Points:
  • Bitcoin  BTC +1.97% ETF outflows reach nearly $6 billion.
  • Market rally fails to reverse outflow trends.
  • Support tested at $90,000–$97,000 range.

Josh Olszewicz from Canary Capital highlights in his newsletter that traditional markets are peaking, while cryptocurrencies struggle due to ETF outflows and policy uncertainties.

This disparity underscores volatility in the crypto sector, pressuring Bitcoin’s price amidst fluctuating institutional interest and regulatory ambiguity.

The Bitcoin ETF outflows have accelerated, climbing from about $3 billion to nearly $6 billion by January 2026. A brief reversal occurred with a $753.7 million inflow in one day, but it did not alter the overall trend.

Market Struggles

Josh Olszewicz, from Canary Capital, commented on the discrepancy between traditional markets and crypto’s performance. As Olszewicz noted, “Traditional markets are at record highs while crypto lags due to ETF outflows and policy uncertainties.” Additionally, no major industry roles or official updates appear on Canary Capital’s website regarding these issues.

Testing Support Levels

Bitcoin’s price tests support levels between $90,000 and $97,000, reflecting vulnerability in the face of ETF outflows. Despite reaching highs up to $94,326, the market outlook remains uncertain as inflow reversal was limited. This trend may affect institutional confidence, with potential implications for Bitcoin, Ethereum  ETH +2.12% , and Solana. These cryptocurrencies experienced mixed results, with varied resistance and support levels being tested across the board.

Historical Outflows and Future Implications

Historical ETF outflows since October 2025 show shifting sentiment. Without clear regulatory changes, evolving market dynamics leave potential volatility looming. Market analysts watch closely. Insights suggest outcomes could influence financial markets and institutional attitudes toward cryptocurrency. Historical trends indicate fragility, emphasizing possible shifts in government strategy, technological advances, or investment patterns due to ongoing crypto volatility.
