U.S. Spot Bitcoin ETFs Reverse $5.8 Billion Deficit with $800M Inflows
U.S. spot Bitcoin ETFs have seen a significant turnaround in investor sentiment after experiencing a $5.8 billion deficit earlier this year. The funds now show nearly $800 million in cumulative net inflows, marking a shift from their previous decline.
The reversal comes on the back of a strong six-session run, which saw the funds attract about $2.84 billion from September 17 to September 24. Daily inflows reached a high of $999 million on September 21, followed by $714.7 million on September 22, and $346.9 million on September 23.
On September 24, BlackRock's iShares Bitcoin Trust contributed the largest single-fund inflow with $162.6 million. Net flows measure creations and redemptions of ETF shares, rather than gross purchases or the number of investors.
Even after turning positive, 2026 flows remain below the levels seen in previous years, standing at about one-third of the roughly $35.25 billion recorded in 2024 and $21.35 billion in 2025.
