Record fund demand lifts crypto sentiment

As reported by The Block, citing SoSoValue, U.S. spot bitcoin exchange-traded funds record $998.95 million in net inflows on Monday, the largest daily total in 11 months and the strongest since Oct. 6, 2025, when inflows reach $1.2 billion.

BlackRock's IBIT leads with $381.4 million, followed by Ark & 21Shares' ARKB with $289.1 million and Fidelity's FBTC with $238.8 million. Products from Grayscale, Bitwise and Morgan Stanley also post positive flows, while spot Ethereum ETFs attract $269.98 million in net inflows on Monday, their largest single-day gain since Oct. 7, 2025.

Bitcoin briefly rises above $87,000 as the inflows build, before trading up 4.7% over the past 24 hours at $85,400 as of 3:00 a.m. ET Tuesday. Ethereum gains 2.5% to $2,730, after the broader move strengthens demand for crypto-linked funds.

Analysts cite technical breakout and macro support

Min Jung, research associate at Presto Research, says there is no single catalyst behind the move, but points to renewed risk appetite, strong spot ETF demand and short covering after bitcoin breaks above key technical levels. Jung adds that the unusually large ETF inflows likely add momentum by signaling renewed institutional demand.

Jeff Ko, chief analyst at ViaBTC, says the price action appears to be a technical breakout after bitcoin clears the $82,000 level that had capped the market earlier. Jeff Mei, chief operating officer of BTSE, says institutional investors are returning because of lower oil prices, easing Treasury yields and a planned meeting this week between Donald Trump and Xi Jinping that could affect AI, trade and the Iran conflict.

John of Zeus says positive funding rates and elevated open interest point to renewed long exposure, while continued short liquidations and persistent spot demand could extend the rally. Traders are now watching whether bitcoin holds above $85,000 and ethereum above $2,700, with sustained ETF inflows seen as a sign of underlying demand.

In our earlier article on the AI-driven chip-stock rally, we described how a broad risk-on move pushed global equities higher as technology and AI names led gains. We also noted that falling oil prices and a stronger dollar shaped cross-asset trading, with bitcoin rising alongside the equity surge even as political uncertainty lingered in Europe and the U.S.
