US spot Bitcoin ETFs kicked off this week with $532 million in single-day crypto inflows on Monday, led by BlackRock’s IBIT at $335 million and Fidelity’s FBTC at $184 million. That strong start followed a week that nearly ended in the red — saved only by a massive Friday session that kept a five-week winning streak alive.
Digital asset investment products posted $118 million in net inflows last week, their fifth straight positive week. But the number masks a turbulent stretch. Crypto exchange-traded products bled nearly $620 million from Monday through Thursday before a single Friday session brought in $737 million, flipping the week to positive.
According to CoinShares head of research James Butterfill, Friday’s haul ranked among the largest single-day inflows of 2026 and reflected “a sharp improvement in risk appetite.” Total assets under management held at $155 billion.
The five-week run now totals $4 billion — the longest and largest inflow streak of the year, surpassing a previous high of close to $3 billion set in March.
Bitcoin products drew $192 million in inflows last week, bringing year-to-date flows to $4.2 billion. That figure, though positive, came in well below the prior three weeks’ average of nearly $1 billion. Short-Bitcoin products saw modest inflows of $6 million.
Ethereum told a different story. The asset logged $81 million in outflows, ending a three-week inflow streak that had topped $190 million each week.
Reports from CoinShares noted that the number of assets attracting inflows narrowed from nine to just four during the week — a sign that investor interest pulled back before recovering on Friday.
