Bitcoin ETFs Soar: Weekly Inflows Take Wall Street by Storm! 🚀💰

by

Ah, the year begins anew, and it seems our dear Spot Bitcoin ETFs-those whimsical exchange-traded funds that dance in the shimmering light of American finance-have managed to stumble into a rather fortuitous start, shaking off the cobwebs of a rather lackluster 2025. How charming! In this giddy spirit of market optimism, these crypto-linked treasures have just recorded their most splendid weekly performance since the golden days of early October.

Lo and behold, this latest inflow-a veritable waterfall of capital-heralds the triumphant return of demand among US institutional investors. And what of our beloved Bitcoin? Why, it too has responded with a joyous leap, soaring as high as $97,500, leaving mere mortals to ponder the whims of the market with a slightly raised eyebrow. 🤔

Bitcoin ETFs Record $1.42B In Weekly Inflows

According to the latest market whispers and the echoes of trading floors, the US spot Bitcoin ETFs have basked in an astonishing net inflow of $1.42 billion over the past week. Oh, how delightful! This round of cash infusion marks the strongest weekly performance from these crypto-linked products in nearly a quarter of a year-where else could one find such excitement?

One cannot help but chuckle at the stark contrast to the previous week’s melodrama, a sad tale of over $681 million being withdrawn as if by a magician’s sleight of hand. Before this renewed investor fervor, the BTC exchange-traded funds had merely gathered approximately $1.26 billion since the week that ended on the 17th of October, 2025. Talk about a comeback! 🎉

Yet, as with any good plot twist, the story took a turn on Friday, January 16, when the US-based Bitcoin ETFs experienced a net outflow of $394.64 million, thus ending a mini four-day streak of capital influx. Leading the exodus was none other than Fidelity Wise Origin Bitcoin Fund (FBTC), which saw a staggering $205.22 million vanish into the ether. Quite the disappearing act, wouldn’t you say?

Trailing closely behind was Bitwise Bitcoin ETF (BITB), which reported a meager net outflow of $90.38 million on that fateful Friday. Meanwhile, Ark 21Shares Bitcoin ETF (ARKB) and Grayscale Bitcoin Trust (GBTC) also joined the ranks of the forlorn, recording net outflows of $69.42 million and $44.76 million, respectively, as the week drew to a close.

But fear not! Our resilient friend, BlackRock’s iShares Bitcoin Trust (IBIT), valiantly attempted to absorb some of the shock with a modest inflow of $15.09 million on that very day, adding a sprinkle of positivity to its already impressive weekly performance of $1 billion in inflows. Bravo! 👏

In a delightful parallel, Ether exchange-traded funds also enjoyed a week of merriment, boasting their largest single-day performance since inception. According to the ever-watchful data from SoSoValue, the ETH ETFs basked in nearly $480 million worth of positive capital inflows over the past week. What a time to be alive!

Bitcoin Price At A Glance

As previously suggested, the price of Bitcoin and the ETFs have twirled together in a harmonious waltz over the last week, as demand sauntered back into the marketplace. Though the flagship cryptocurrency once flirted with the $97,000 mark earlier last week, it now finds itself slightly above the $95,000 threshold, having taken a minor dip in recent days. Ah, the fickle nature of fortune!
