Bitcoin Climbs Back Above $74,000 as Spot ETF Outflows Slow to $95 Million
Bitcoin recovered on Wednesday, 11 November, climbing back above $74,000 after Tuesday's sell-off took it to an intraday low near $72,800. Some exchanges briefly showed prices above $75,000. The rebound followed the broader risk-on move in US tech stocks, where AI and chip names rallied after CoreWeave's earnings.
ETF flows remain negative, but redemptions are slowing.
What happened
- Spot Bitcoin ETFs saw net outflows of about $95 million on Tuesday, 10 November. It was the third straight session in which the daily outflow was smaller than the one before.
- BlackRock's IBIT recorded about $78 million in withdrawals, its eighth straight day of outflows.
- Monthly picture. Estimates of November outflows so far range from about $1.2 billion to $1.6 billion, depending on the data provider and date range.
- Macro pressure remains. Hotter October US inflation pushed up the odds of a December Fed hike to about 87–92%, and Goldman Sachs now expects 25 basis point hikes in December and March 2027.
- Weak demand. On-chain analysts at CryptoQuant still describe spot demand as soft, even as selling pressure eases.
Why it matters for traders
- Slowing outflows are not inflows. Smaller redemptions can mean sellers are running out, but a sustained recovery usually needs ETF flows to turn positive for several days in a row.
- Rates drive Bitcoin right now. Bitcoin has traded closely with rate expectations this month. Rising Treasury yields and a stronger dollar make non-yielding assets less attractive.
- Key levels. The $72,800 low from Tuesday is the nearest support. Sellers have been active in the $76,000–77,000 area in recent sessions.
- Leverage resets. Tuesday's drop liquidated more than $600 million in leveraged positions. After a flush like that, rebounds can be sharp, but they often fade without new spot buying.
What to watch
- Daily ETF flow data. One positive day for IBIT would end its outflow streak and could improve sentiment.
- US Treasury yields when bond markets reopen after Veterans Day.
- Fed speakers and any shift between 25 and 50 basis point hike expectations.
- Nvidia earnings on 17 November, since Bitcoin has been moving with tech risk appetite.
