US spot Bitcoin exchange-traded funds took in a net $119 million on Tuesday, according to SoSoValue data reported by Cointelegraph. That came one day after the same funds lost $90 million on Monday. The inflow happened even though prices were falling.
Ether funds went the other way. US spot Ether ETFs have now had net outflows for six trading sessions in a row, and those outflows add up to $408 million. The two numbers cover different periods: the Bitcoin figure is one day, and the Ether figure is six sessions combined.
When the article was published on Oct 7, 2026, Cointelegraph's price ticker showed BTC at $83,677.52 and ETH at $2,576.50. The report does not say why money went back into Bitcoin funds or why it kept leaving Ether funds. It also does not say whether either trend has continued past Tuesday.
For anyone already holding a perpetual position on Bitget, Bybit, MEXC or OKX, this changes nothing directly. ETF flows are money moving in and out of spot funds in the US, and the report says nothing about funding rates, trading fees or order-book liquidity on any perpetual futures exchange. Holding costs are still set by each venue's funding rate and fee schedule, which this news does not touch.
