Inflows into U.S. spot Bitcoin ETFs came to an end after nine consecutive days. On Wednesday, the funds recorded combined net outflows of $148.7 million.
According to The Block, investors had poured about $3.1 billion into Bitcoin ETFs over the previous nine trading days. The streak was one of the strongest in 2026 and pushed the funds' cumulative year-to-date flows back into positive territory.
Fidelity's FBTC led the outflows, with investors withdrawing $125.6 million. Bitwise's BITB saw another $13.6 million exit. BlackRock's IBIT, which usually leads in inflows, lost $9.5 million and also ended its own nine-day inflow streak, during which it attracted about $1.6 billion.
The remaining spot Bitcoin ETFs saw no significant capital flows that day.
Funds remain positive for the year
Despite the latest outflows, cumulative net inflows into U.S. spot Bitcoin ETFs since their launch in January 2024 exceed $57 billion. Since the beginning of 2026, the figure stands at about $970 million, while assets under management remain above $100 billion.
Bloomberg analysts previously noted that the funds had once again moved closer to their all-time highs in cumulative inflows. However, they are still about $5 billion below the peak reached on October 10 last year.
Last week, Morgan Stanley's Bitcoin ETF, launched in April 2026, surpassed 10,000 BTC in assets under management for the first time.
At the same time, U.S. spot Ethereum ETFs recorded net outflows of $59.6 million on Wednesday. Fidelity's FETH saw the largest withdrawals at $26.6 million. It was the second consecutive day of outflows for Ethereum ETFs following a seven-day inflow streak of about $850 million.
Cumulative net inflows into spot Ethereum ETFs since their launch in July 2024 currently stand at around $14 billion.
What prolonged inflows indicate
A prolonged inflow streak into Bitcoin ETFs usually points to sustained demand from large investors who use exchange-traded funds as a regulated and familiar way to gain exposure to Bitcoin. When inflows continue for several days in a row, it suggests that purchases are not a one-off event but are being supported by a steady flow of new capital.
Such streaks can also reduce the amount of Bitcoin available on the market, as funds need to back their issued shares with the underlying asset. ETF inflows do not guarantee a rise in Bitcoin's price, but sustained demand can tighten supply and support the market, especially when selling by other large holders remains limited.
