The US spot Bitcoin ETF (exchange traded fund) recorded inflows for five consecutive days for the first time in 2026. This strong performance comes as a relief after a rocky start to the year for BTC and the broader crypto market.
Although this major cryptocurrency still seems to be struggling in terms of price trends, demand conditions seem to be steadily improving, especially in the United States. According to the latest market data, Bitcoin ETFs recorded net inflows of approximately $767.32 million over the past week.
US Bitcoin ETF records $767 million in past week
The US-based Bitcoin exchange-traded fund recorded total net inflows of $180.33 million on Friday, March 13th. The capital inflow marks the fifth day of a streak that began earlier in the week and is the longest so far this year.
According to recent market data, BlackRock’s Bitcoin Trust (ticker: IBIT) accounted for the majority of Friday’s total net inflows, approximately $143.59 million. This was followed on the day by the Fidelity Wise Origin Bitcoin Fund (FBTC), which made a donation of $23.24 million.
VanEck Bitcoin ETF (HODL), Bitwise Bitcoin ETF (BITB), and Ark 21Shares Bitcoin ETF (ARKB) (up $8.05 million, $3.09 million, and $2.36 million in value, respectively) were the only other Bitcoin ETFs to record some activity on Friday. Interestingly, this Friday’s performance only pales in comparison to Tuesday, March 10th’s total net inflow of $250.92.
As mentioned above, these daily performances set a weekly record for exchange-traded funds with a net total of approximately $767.32 million. This week’s performance marks the third consecutive week of positive inflows to US-based Bitcoin ETFs.
