Fact Check
The claim is strongly supported by two independent Odaily newsflash articles (479300 and 479299), both published on 2026-05-04 and citing SoSoValue as the primary data source. The Bitcoin figure of $154 million net inflow and the Ethereum figure of $82.47 million net outflow for the April 27 to May 1 week are confirmed exactly. The claim's specific detail that BlackRock's ETHA and Fidelity's FETH led Ethereum outflows is also confirmed: ETHA at -$71.44M and FETH at -$50.25M. PANews independently corroborates the Bitcoin figure with identical numbers. The only minor caveat is that the claim says ETHA and FETH 'led' outflows, which is accurate for ETHA (largest single outflow), though FETH was second while BlackRock ETHB partially offset with inflows. All figures are internally consistent and sourced from SoSoValue, a recognized crypto ETF data aggregator.
