Nearly 1% of Franklin’s Bitcoin ETF Assets Exit in a Single Day as Caution Rises

Franklin Bitcoin ETF’s EZBC Sees Nearly 1% of Assets Head for the Exit

The Franklin Bitcoin ETF, EZBC, recorded net outflows of $3.79 million on February 13, 2026, trimming its assets under management to about $389.1 million. The single-day withdrawal represents roughly 0.97% of the fund’s AUM, a sizable move that hints at growing investor caution around spot Bitcoin exposure.

The related asset, BTC-USD, is currently trading at $68,191.76 after a bruising three-month slide of about 22%. The coin’s 1-day technical signal stands at Strong Sell, reinforcing the risk-off tone that appears to be spilling over into listed Bitcoin products like EZBC.

While a sub-1% outflow may not threaten the ETF’s stability, the timing suggests that some holders are locking in gains or cutting risk as volatility rebuilds in digital assets. If Bitcoin’s downside pressure persists, similar redemption waves could pressure spreads and short-term liquidity across the broader crypto ETF complex.
