U.S. spot Bitcoin exchange-traded funds (ETFs) attracted a remarkable $2.3 billion in net inflows last week, signaling a robust resurgence in institutional and macroeconomic investor interest. The funds recorded five consecutive days of positive inflows, underscoring a clear and sustained demand impulse in the digital asset market. Leading asset managers BlackRock and Fidelity were at the forefront of this momentum, with their respective ETFs—IBIT and FBTC—accounting for a significant portion of the capital influx. Market analysts attribute this wave of investment to growing confidence among institutional players, who are increasingly viewing Bitcoin as a viable hedge against macroeconomic uncertainty and inflationary pressures. The consistent inflow pattern also reflects broader market optimism following regulatory clarity and improved product accessibility. This activity has contributed to strengthened Bitcoin prices and heightened trading volumes across major exchanges. The data highlights a pivotal shift in investor behavior, as traditional finance entities continue to deepen their exposure to cryptocurrency assets through regulated and familiar investment vehicles.
