Bitcoin ETF inflows hit $3.8B in strongest three-week stretch of 2026

US-listed spot Bitcoin exchange-traded funds (ETFs) have recorded their strongest three-week inflow stretch of 2026 as Bitcoin traded around $80,000.

The funds attracted $986.9 million in the week ending Friday, bringing net inflows over the past three weeks to $3.8 billion, according to SoSoValue data.

Total net assets across the funds stood at $101.3 billion on Friday after briefly rising to $103.3 billion a day earlier, while cumulative net inflows reached $55.6 billion.

ETF demand marks a sharp turnaround from heavy outflows earlier in 2026, though year-to-date net flows remain roughly $1 billion negative.

Fidelity’s Wise Origin Bitcoin Fund (FBTC) was the only other fund to record net inflows, attracting $57.2 million, while all other US spot Bitcoin ETFs recorded no net flows for the day.

The slowdown came as Bitcoin fell from around $81,200 to briefly below $79,000 on Friday. Bitcoin traded at $79,716 at the time of publication, still up about 2.6% over the past seven days, according to CoinGecko.

Bitcoin ETF demand strengthens as Ether, $XRP flows fade

Compared with the previous week, Bitcoin ETF inflows increased about 7%, while inflows into US spot Ether and $XRP ETFs fell about 74% and 83%, respectively.

Spot Ether ETF inflows dropped to $218.4 million from $824.4 million, while $XRP ETF inflows declined to $19 million from $110.5 million, according to SoSoValue.

Despite weaker inflows, Ether and $XRP ETFs remain in positive territory for the year. US spot Ether ETFs have recorded about $863 million in net inflows year-to-date, while $XRP ETFs have attracted roughly $515 million.
