Spot Bitcoin ETFs saw nearly $295 million in net inflows on Monday, recording inflows for two consecutive days and starting the week with massive buying. This indicates institutional investors are buying heavily despite the German govt BTC selloff and key macroeconomic events this week.
Spot Bitcoin ETFs Inflow Hints At Upcoming Market Rally
Spot Bitcoin ETFs in the U.S. recorded a total net inflow of $294.8 million, the highest inflow in 21 days. It follows as institutional investors continue to buy the dip. Crypto asset investment products globally saw a $441 million inflow last week as crypto weakness by Mt Gox and the German Government selling pressure were seen as a buying opportunity, reported CoinShares.
According to Bloomberg and Farside Investors, BlackRock’s iShares Bitcoin ETF (IBIT) recorded $187.2 in inflow, the highest inflow not seen in the last few weeks. Following the latest inflow, BlackRock’s net inflow hit over $17.9 billion and BTC holding is valued at nearly $18 billion.
Fidelity Bitcoin ETF (FBTC) saw $61.5 in inflow on Monday, with the total inflow reaching $9.42 billion. Bitwise Bitcoin ETF (BITB), Ark 21Shares (ARKB) Bitcoin ETF, and VanEck Bitcoin ETF (HODL) also saw inflows of $11 million, $8.4 million, and $1.6 million, respectively. Other spot Bitcoin ETFs saw zero net inflows.
Notably, Grayscale Bitcoin Trust (GBTC) also recorded inflows of $25.1 million after consecutive outflows in the previous days. GBTC buys 450 BTC, indicating strong demand from institutional investors.

BTC Price To Rally Above $60k
Institutional buying signals high chances of Bitcoin rally to above $60k. Experts are overall bullish on BTC price and believe Mt. Gox creditors are not likely to sell their Bitcoin in this bull market.
In 6 months, US-listed Bitcoin ETFs brought in over $14.7B in net inflows. Key takeaway? Interest in #Bitcoin and digital assets remains high.
Token prices and market caps fluctuate, but the long-term fundamentals of our industry is strong.
Stay focused and keep building! 🚀

BTC price has jumped over 3% in the last 24 hours, with the price currently trading at $57,603 as traders adjusted positions based on Wall Street’s bullish outlook on rate cuts. The 24-hour low and high are $55,240 and $58,131, respectively. Furthermore, the trading volume has increased by 36% in the last 24 hours, indicating a rise in interest among traders.
Derivatives market data shows massive buying by futures and options traders. BTC futures open interest across exchanges soared 2.60% in the last 24 hours. Buying is recorded on CME and Kraken, which implies higher demand in the US.
However, traders must remain cautious due to the Fed Chair Jerome Powell speech, CPI and PPI inflation data due this week.
