Bitcoin ETFs lost $244 million on Thursday, while Ether funds extended their outflow streak to eight sessions, shedding $641 million.
Executive scan
Crypto opens with risk appetite still bruised. Bitcoin ETFs shed $244 million Thursday, Ether funds extended an eight-session outflow streak, and coverage puts October ETF redemptions near $1 billion. Bitcoin is back near $82,000 after a $1 billion liquidation event, with Ether positioning hit harder than BTC in reported wipeouts.
Beyond price action, the morning stack is heavy on market plumbing. Sui is preparing Hashi, an institutional bitcoin-collateral protocol with $500 million in commitments, Coinbase is rolling out up to 10x spot leverage for eligible non-US retail users, and XRP Ledger added account controls aimed at banks, stablecoins and tokenized funds. Policy risk is also active: France advanced stablecoin and crypto exit-tax measures for its 2027 budget, while Kyrgyzstan is winding down its state-backed USDKG after UK sanctions.
