The ProShares Ultra Bitcoin ETF, BITU, logged a fresh bout of redemptions on May 4, 2026, with investors pulling roughly $1.83 million from the leveraged vehicle. The outflow represents about 0.34% of the fund’s $533.26 million in assets under management, a modest but notable reversal after weeks of crypto‑driven inflows.
The related asset, BTC-USD, is currently trading at $82,011.13, up about 14.23% over the past three months as Bitcoin continues to outpace many traditional risk assets. Despite the latest ETF outflow, the coin’s short‑term setup remains constructive, with a 1‑day technical signal flashing Buy, suggesting traders are trimming exposure in leverage rather than abandoning the underlying asset.
