Reports have disclosed that spot Bitcoin ETFs experienced a massive institutional withdrawal last Friday, with investors pulling out over $800 million.

It wiped out roughly one week’s worth of inflows and pushed cumulative net inflows down to $54 billion. Spot Bitcoin ETFs See Major Withdrawals Based on reports, the total assets under management across all spot Bitcoin ETFs now stand at $146.48 billion. That represents just 6.46% of Bitcoin’s overall market capitalization. Leading the sell-off was Fidelity’s FBTC, which saw redemptions of $331 million. Close behind was ARK Invest’s ARKB, with $327.93 million exiting the fund. The Bitcoin ETFs had $812M worth of outflows yesterday. The 2nd largest outflow day in history. Should we be worried? pic.twitter.com/YdiPolJODE — Mister Crypto (@misterrcrypto) August 3, 2025   Grayscale’s GBTC recorded $67 million in outflows, and BlackRock’s IBIT faced a comparatively small pull-back of $2.58 million. Even with big redemptions, institutions have not stepped away completely. There is a sense that they are simply shifting tactics. Trading Volumes Hold Up Strong According to trading data, daily turnover across all spot Bitcoin ETFs surged to $6.13 billion on the same day. BlackRock’s IBIT alone accounted for $4.50 billion of that figure. Such high volume suggests that buyers and sellers are still very active. It points to a market where investors are fine-tuning positions rather than abandoning them. Futures, discounted funds like GBTC, or alternative crypto products could be where some capital is moving. Ethereum ETFs Break Inflow Streak Reports have disclosed that spot Ether ETFs ended a 20-day inflow streak with net outflows of $152 million last Friday. That streak was the longest the Ether products have ever seen. Grayscale’s ETHE led the outflows with $47.68 million leaving the fund. Bitwise’s ETHW saw $40.30 million in redemptions, while Fidelity’s FETH lost $6.17 million. BlackRock’s ETHA held steady, reporting $10.71 billion in assets under management.

The Dogecoin weekly chart is back at a cluster of technical levels that one market watcher says offers a favorable entry. The pseudonymous trader Cantonese Cat (@cantonmeow) posted a TradingView snapshot and wrote, “I bought a little bit more DOGE and Fartcoin last night, but you pretty much knew that. I think it’s great risk-reward here and that I’ll do what I can to buy anyway.” In a follow-up note attached to the same chart, the analyst summarized the setup as a “DOGE Bull market support band back-test. Diagonal bear market trendline breakout and back-test.” Best Dogecoin Buy Signal? The chart, created August 3,, tracks DOGE/USD (Coinbase) on the weekly timeframe and shows price pulling into the Bull Market Support Band—an envelope indicator plotted as two lines—now marked around $0.19025–$0.20703. At the time of the screenshot, the weekly candle displayed O: $0.24076, H: $0.24860, L: $0.18855, C: $0.19945, reflecting a drop of roughly 17.15% on the week with hours left in the session. The drawdown follows a sharp two-week advance that pushed Dogecoin into the upper $0.20s before sellers faded the move. Technically, the image highlights two elements beyond the support band. First is a descending trendline drawn across lower weekly highs, which price moved above on July 16 and is now testing from the topside. Second is the confluence between that trendline and the bull market support band, a zone that trend followers often watch to judge whether a breakout is holding or failing. Related Reading: Historical Data Predicts Dogecoin Price Crash In August — But There’s A Silver Lining The analyst’s post frames the current retreat as a “back-test” of both features rather than a breakdown, implying that demand near the band could keep bulls in control if the level continues to act as support. While the post is explicitly bullish, the evidence presented is descriptive rather than predictive. However, the weekly candle has closed above the crucial area. So, the configuration is clear: after piercing a long-running diagonal barrier, DOGE is revisiting the $0.19–$0.21 area, where the support band is aligned with the former downtrend line. Related Reading: If Dogecoin Loses This Level, Expect A Major Crash: Analyst Warns Traders who subscribe to momentum-and-trend methodologies often evaluate such retests for confirmation—looking for stabilization, shrinking downside momentum, or a swift recovery back above the midline of the band. Cantonese Cat’s message distills that view into a simple risk stance. By stating “I think it’s great risk-reward here,” the commentator is signaling that, in his opinion, the nearby technical levels define risk tightly relative to potential upside should the breakout sustain. As always, that is one analyst’s interpretation of the chart at a specific moment in time; Dogecoin remains volatile, and this week will be pivotal for bulls attempting to confirm the momentum, but the risk-reward ratio seems quite good. At press time, DOGE traded at $0.199. Featured image created with DALL.E, chart from TradingView.com
