The Grayscale Bitcoin Mini Trust (BTC), traded under the ticker BTC, recorded net outflows of $7.37 million on December 17, 2025, a modest but notable move for a fund overseeing $4.13 billion in assets under management (AUM). The latest redemption wave represents roughly 0.18% of AUM, signaling that while investors are not exiting en masse, some are clearly trimming exposure amid renewed volatility in the underlying crypto market.
The related asset, BTC-USD, is currently trading at $88,918.88. Over the past three months, Bitcoin has slid about 23.21%, erasing a significant portion of its earlier gains and underscoring how quickly sentiment can pivot in a market dominated by macro uncertainty and shifting risk appetite. Short-term momentum remains fragile, with the 1-day technical signal flashing Sell, reinforcing the cautious stance reflected in ETF outflows.
For now, the scale of withdrawals from BTC is far from panic territory, but the combination of declining spot prices, negative short-term technicals, and incremental ETF redemptions suggests that a growing cohort of investors is moving to the sidelines, waiting for clearer direction on both policy signals and broader crypto risk premiums.
