Spot Bitcoin exchange-traded funds in the United States have extended their inflow streak to nine consecutive trading days, pulling in a combined $2.12 billion — a sign that institutional conviction remains high even as BTC struggles to reclaim the $80,000 level.
The streak, which began on April 14, marks one of the longest uninterrupted inflow runs since the products launched in January 2024. BlackRock’s IBIT led the charge with over $900 million in net new capital, followed by Fidelity’s FBTC and ARK Invest’s ARKB.
“We’re seeing a different kind of buyer now,” said one portfolio manager at a major Wall Street firm. “These are allocators treating Bitcoin as a permanent portfolio component, not a speculative trade.”
Bitcoin was trading near $78,500 at press time, with analysts pointing to the $80,000 level as the key threshold bulls need to reclaim. Despite the price stagnation, the ETF inflow data suggests institutional demand has not abated.
Total assets under management across all US spot Bitcoin ETFs have now surpassed $105 billion.
