- Major Bitcoin and Ethereum ETFs saw over $112 million in combined outflows on Monday amid geopolitical tensions.
- Hyperliquid ETFs have bucked the trend with eight consecutive days of net inflows, adding $10.95 million on Monday.

- Analysts attribute ETF outflows to Bitcoin’s price dropping below ETF average purchase prices and rising Treasury yields.
Institutional investment flows diverged sharply on Monday as major crypto ETFs experienced significant outflows while newer funds tied to Hyperliquid continued to attract capital. Bitcoin ETFs led the losses with $105.2 million in outflows, while Ethereum ETFs shed $6.7 million, according to SoSoValue data. Consequently, last week saw the third-largest weekly outflow of 2026 for digital asset investment products, with $1.47 billion exiting the market, CoinShares reported.
Meanwhile, two Hyperliquid ETFs posted their eighth straight day of net buying, adding $10.95 million. This streak included a $25.5 million inflow on May 20, coinciding with the HYPE token hitting a new all-time high. Analyst Tim Sun from HashKey Group told Decrypt that Bitcoin ETF outflows are driven by price action and rising Treasury yields, stating, “Bitcoin’s price has actually dropped below the average purchase price of the ETFs, triggering a certain degree of selling pressure.”
He added that the market is in a wait-and-see period, primarily buying downside protection. Sun also cautioned that regulatory risks for Hyperliquid are growing despite its prominent performance. Bitcoin is currently trading around $77,140. On prediction market Myriad, users now see a 74% chance Bitcoin will retest $84,000, down from 86% earlier this month.
