ETF Flows (BTC/ETH)
Contextual note: ETF data provided here pertains only to BTC and ETH. It should be interpreted as market context and not as a primary signal for LINK. BTC ETFs show a 1D net inflow (+$85.9M) with negative 5D and 10D performance, while ETH ETFs show a small 1D outflow (-$4.9M) with larger negative flows over 5D and 10D. These flows reflect macro risk-on/off signals in the crypto market but are not direct drivers for LINK price action.
: 1D +$85.9M | 5D -$319.3M | 10D -$120.9M : 1D -$4.9M | 5D -$14.8M | 10D -$35.6M
What to Watch Next
- Watch for a close above 8.44 on an intraday basis to validate potential upside continuation toward 8.6187–8.7877.
- Watch for a sustained close below 8.12 to signal downside risk toward 7.7936–7.956.
- Monitor volatility regime. Continued very low volatility increases the likelihood of a breakout move if triggers are hit with corroborating volume.
- Keep context of BTC/ETH ETF flows; while not primary signals for LINK, shifts in BTC/ETH liquidity can influence risk sentiment and correlated assets.
