Largest bitcoin ETF inflow in three months signals institutional bid is back
CoinDesk
U.S. Bitcoin ETFs saw their largest daily inflow in three months, signaling a return of institutional demand.Summary
U.S. Bitcoin exchange-traded funds (ETFs) registered their largest daily inflow since October 7, totaling $697.2 million on Monday. This surge contributed to approximately $1.2 billion in net inflows across the first two trading days of 2026, coinciding with Bitcoin's price rising from $87,000 to nearly $94,000. Historically, extended periods of outflows from spot Bitcoin ETFs have often aligned with local market bottoms, such as in August 2024 and April 2025. The current shift back to positive territory, supported by the Coinbase premium index moving away from capitulation levels, suggests that strong institutional buying interest is returning to the market.
