October 22 ETF outflows reach 635.5 million USD

The withdrawal was the largest single-session outflow listed in TFTC's October 2026 flow table. The table assigns 254.1 million USD of outflows to BlackRock's IBIT, 217.5 million USD to Fidelity's FBTC and 109.4 million USD to ARK 21Shares' ARKB on October 22. The figures cover U.S. spot Bitcoin ETFs, which hold the cryptocurrency directly rather than through futures contracts.

On October 21, the same table recorded 528.4 million USD of net inflows. The two consecutive daily figures show a change in ETF subscriptions between October 21 and October 22, while the Bitcoin price data remain a separate market observation.

Three-day inflows top 1.08 billion USD

CoinDesk reported on October 22 that U.S.-listed spot Bitcoin ETFs attracted more than 1.08 billion USD in three days. The report said the average daily inflow since July 1 was 86 million USD, below the more than 200 million USD daily average recorded during three earlier steep Bitcoin rallies.

Vikram Subburaj, chief executive of Giottus, told CoinDesk that institutional demand showed tentative improvement but that flows remained volatile and sustained inflows were needed to confirm a stronger recovery. That assessment is a third-party view and does not establish a price forecast.
