Bitcoin ETFs have faced significant withdrawals this month, with $3.5 billion in outflows across six consecutive trading sessions in early November, according to Farside data.

However, institutional investors with a longer-term horizon are capitalizing on the wobbling Bitcoin prices to increase their holdings.

Strategy upsized offering follows Strive’s $80 IPO which nearly doubled its Perpetual Preferred Stock (SATA) from 1.25 million to 2 million shares.

After Charles Schwab’s Bitcoin ETF announcement on Nov. 6, net inflows resumed across the ETF sector, with $239.9 million re-entering the market as Bitcoin stabilized near $100,000.
