Bitcoin and Ethereum spot ETFs experienced a notable capital withdrawal phase midweek. Combined outflows hit $232M on Wednesday, signaling shifting trader sentiment. BlackRock's IBIT took the heaviest blow—shedding $91.37M—while Grayscale's ETHE witnessed $57M in redemptions. Market participants appeared to be taking chips off the table ahead of the holiday break, a typical pattern as year-end approaches. These movements reflect broader repositioning in institutional digital asset allocations.

Blackstone has invested over 90 million. What could this be implying?

232M invested, these institutions are scared now
Running away with their tails between their legs before the Holiday, they really know how to play
BlackRock's cut this time was pretty ruthless, 91M just disappeared
Still hoping to stabilize the wallet by the end of the year, I understand this mindset
ETHE is also bleeding, Grayscale is still pretty miserable this time
Institutions are like this, buy when it rises, sell when it falls
Feels like everyone is clearing out before the bottom, such sneaky moves

Blackstone dumps 231M, all the smart money has already run away.

The ones who run are all smart people; I'm still holding on.

Blackstone runs away like this... Cutting losses at the end of the year is really a tradition.

Hey, $232M evaporated overnight, this move looks a bit familiar. BlackRock IBIT lost $91.37M? According to on-chain data, it's not just a simple "pre-holiday liquidation"—I had already guessed that institutions are starting to dump.

According to research, this 232M net outflow is not simply a bearish signal—what's worth noting is that the seasonal characteristic of institutional rebalancing at year-end has been seriously underestimated. From a technical perspective, BlackRock IBIT's 91.37M redemption precisely aligns with the traditional asset annual rebalancing cycle, which is a data-driven rational behavior rather than panic selling. It is recommended that everyone not be fooled by short-term fluctuations and calmly analyze the institutional-level holding logic.

Those who cut losses at the end of the year are getting desperate, BlackRock's $91M withdrawal this time is hilarious.
