Hey there, meme coin aficionados! If you're knee-deep in the wild world of blockchain and always on the lookout for signals that could sway your next trade, you've got to check out this fresh intel from Lookonchain. On November 5, 2025, they dropped a quick update on the net flows for major Bitcoin and Ethereum ETFs, and it's got some red flags waving—literally, with those 🔴 emojis signaling outflows.

Let's break it down simply. ETFs, or Exchange-Traded Funds, are like baskets that hold cryptocurrencies such as Bitcoin (BTC) or Ethereum (ETH), allowing traditional investors to dip their toes into crypto without directly buying the coins. Net flows track how much money (or crypto) is coming in or going out over a day or week. Positive means inflows—more buying interest—while negative spells outflows, which can hint at waning enthusiasm or profit-taking.

Key Takeaways from the Bitcoin ETFs

According to Lookonchain, the 10 tracked Bitcoin ETFs saw a combined net outflow of 5,057 BTC on that day, equating to a whopping $519.48 million in value. Over the past seven days, it's even steeper at 17,429 BTC outflows, or about $1.79 billion. Fidelity's Wise Origin Bitcoin Fund (FBTC) is the big story here, dumping 3,552 BTC ($364.93 million) in a single day, leaving them with 201,225 BTC holdings valued at $20.67 billion.

Other notable movers include ARK 21Shares Bitcoin ETF (ARKB) with 1,275 BTC outflows and Bitwise Bitcoin ETF (BITB) shedding 71 BTC. Grayscale's funds also showed some outflows, but smaller players like Franklin Bitcoin ETF (EZBC) actually had minor inflows of 87 BTC. Overall, it's a net negative vibe for BTC ETFs.

Ethereum ETFs Aren't Faring Much Better

Shifting to Ethereum, the nine ETFs monitored had a daily net outflow of 12,408 ETH, worth $41.57 million. The seven-day figure? A painful 121,927 ETH, or $540.85 million gone. Again, Fidelity's Ethereum Fund (FETH) is front and center, outflowing 6,237 ETH ($20.89 million), with holdings now at 738,962 ETH ($2.48 billion).

Grayscale's Ethereum Trust (ETHE) led the pack in outflows at 4,128 ETH daily, but their Mini Trust (ETH) bucked the trend with inflows of 8,381 ETH over seven days. VanEck's Ethereum ETF (ETHV) also saw outflows, while some like iShares Ethereum Trust (ETHA) held steady with zero change on the day.

What Does This Mean for Meme Coins?

Now, why should meme token hunters care about these ETF moves? Meme coins like Dogecoin, Shiba Inu, or the latest viral sensations often ride the waves of broader crypto sentiment, especially tied to Bitcoin and Ethereum. When big institutions like Fidelity pull back, it can create short-term market jitters, leading to dips in ETH-based meme projects on networks like Solana or Base. Think of it as a ripple effect: BTC and ETH prices soften, and the high-risk, high-reward meme space feels the pinch first.

But here's the silver lining—outflows aren't always doom and gloom. They could signal profit-taking after a rally or rebalancing portfolios amid election uncertainties or economic news. For savvy traders, this might be a dip-buying opportunity. Keep an eye on how these flows evolve; if inflows resume, it could turbocharge meme coin pumps.
