Heavy Bitcoin ETF Redemptions Fail to Break Price Support

2026/01/31 00:12

Key takeaways:

  • Bitcoin ETFs saw their largest single-day outflow in weeks.
  • Selling pressure was widespread across major issuers, not isolated.
  • Spot Bitcoin price held above $82,000 despite heavy ETF redemptions.
  • Price stability suggests non-ETF demand helped absorb supply.

Despite the pressure from ETF redemptions, spot prices across major assets showed mixed resilience, suggesting that not all selling pressure translated directly into the broader market.

Bitcoin

Bitcoin spot ETFs recorded a sharp net outflow on 29 January, with total withdrawals of approximately $817.8 million. The selling pressure was broad-based, led by heavy redemptions from BlackRock’s IBIT (-$317.8 million), Fidelity’s FBTC (-$168.0 million), Bitwise’s BITB (-$88.9 million), and ARK’s ARKB (-$71.6 million), alongside notable outflows from Grayscale’s GBTC (-$119.4 million). Despite the scale of ETF selling, Bitcoin was trading near $82,603, showing only a marginal daily decline and signaling relative price resilience.

Ethereum

Ethereum ETFs also faced sustained pressure, recording net outflows of roughly $155.7 million on the day. Redemptions were driven primarily by BlackRock’s ETHA (-$54.9 million) and Fidelity’s FETH (-$59.2 million), with additional outflows from Bitwise and Grayscale-linked products. Ethereum was trading around $2,725, reflecting continued weakness in ETF demand alongside broader risk-off sentiment in the altcoin market.

Solana

Solana ETFs showed comparatively muted activity. Total net flows on 29 January were slightly negative at approximately -$2.2 million, with small outflows concentrated in Grayscale’s GSOL and Bitwise’s BSOL, while other issuers recorded flat flows. SOL was trading near $115.50, remaining under modest pressure but outperforming several larger assets in relative terms.

XRP

XRP spot ETFs experienced one of the most uneven flow profiles of the day, with total net outflows of about $48.6 million. While Canary and Bitwise products posted modest inflows, these were overwhelmed by a significant -$51.5 million redemption from Grayscale’s XRP trust. XRP was trading around $1.74, reflecting heightened volatility as ETF flows remain highly concentrated among issuers.

The Channel Factories We’ve Been Waiting For

The post The Channel Factories We’ve Been Waiting For appeared on BitcoinEthereumNews.com. Visions of future technology are often prescient about the broad strokes while flubbing the details. The tablets in “2001: A Space Odyssey” do indeed look like iPads, but you never see the astronauts paying for subscriptions or wasting hours on Candy Crush.  Channel factories are one vision that arose early in the history of the Lightning Network to address some challenges that Lightning has faced from the beginning. Despite having grown to become Bitcoin’s most successful layer-2 scaling solution, with instant and low-fee payments, Lightning’s scale is limited by its reliance on payment channels. Although Lightning shifts most transactions off-chain, each payment channel still requires an on-chain transaction to open and (usually) another to close. As adoption grows, pressure on the blockchain grows with it. The need for a more scalable approach to managing channels is clear. Channel factories were supposed to meet this need, but where are they? In 2025, subnetworks are emerging that revive the impetus of channel factories with some new details that vastly increase their potential. They are natively interoperable with Lightning and achieve greater scale by allowing a group of participants to open a shared multisig UTXO and create multiple bilateral channels, which reduces the number of on-chain transactions and improves capital efficiency. Achieving greater scale by reducing complexity, Ark and Spark perform the same function as traditional channel factories with new designs and additional capabilities based on shared UTXOs.  Channel Factories 101 Channel factories have been around since the inception of Lightning. A factory is a multiparty contract where multiple users (not just two, as in a Dryja-Poon channel) cooperatively lock funds in a single multisig UTXO. They can open, close and update channels off-chain without updating the blockchain for each operation. Only when participants leave or the factory dissolves is an on-chain transaction…
