- JPMorgan reports crypto de-risking end with ETF flow stability.
- Market sees fragile bottom, not bullish trend.
- Institutional and retail positions largely stabilized.
JPMorgan Chase & Co. reports that the intense phase of crypto de-risking seems to be concluding as Bitcoin and Ether ETF flows stabilize, potentially signaling a market bottom.
This stabilization points to easing outflows, interpreted as a fragile market bottom, yet not indicative of a new bullish trend, affecting market sentiment cautiously.
JPMorgan Chase & Co. announced that the major wave of crypto de-risking is likely over. This conclusion comes as Bitcoin and Ether ETF flows have shown stability, and outflows are easing, suggesting a fragile market bottom.
The findings originate from the J.P. Morgan Global Research team, part of their 2026 Market Outlook. JPMorgan’s crypto strategy notes the absence of large-scale de-risking as critical to market stability.
JPMorgan’s research reveals that ETF flow behavior indicates the heaviest de-risking phase has passed. This affects both institutional and retail investors, offering a structural foundation for stability in the crypto market.
Their analysis highlights ETF flows as an essential barometer for institutional appetite. This trend underscores a significant reduction in forced sell-offs across various risk asset segments, including major cryptocurrencies like Bitcoin and Ether.
The current state allows for selective risk-taking as policy shifts influence the market mood. Social channels and commentary reflect a shift toward “bottom building”, with an increasing focus on ETF flow stabilization and institutional participation.
Historical analyses by JPMorgan show that previous de-risked phases eventually led to new highs. ETF flows and macro conditions act as driving forces, potentially positioning Bitcoin within a long-term growth path as projected in their research.
J.P. Morgan Global Research stated, “ETF flows and positioning data are key in assessing whether recent sell-offs are exhausted; however, we interpret the recent choppy pattern of ETF flows as ‘fragile stabilization.'” The easing outflows signify that the heaviest phase of de-risking and position cuts has likely already occurred.
