The 2x Bitcoin Strategy ETF, BITX, recorded outflows of $5.66 million on April 2, 2026, trimming risk appetite in one of the market’s most aggressive Bitcoin plays. With assets under management at roughly $964.19 million, the latest redemption wave represents about 0.59% of the fund’s capital base, a notable single-day pullback for a leveraged vehicle.
The related asset, BTC-USD, is currently trading at $66,981.61 after a bruising three months that left it down about 28.34%. Reflecting that pressure, the coin’s 1-day technical signal flashes a bearish Strong Sell, underscoring why some traders may be unwinding leveraged exposure rather than buying the dip.
