What happened

US spot bitcoin ETFs recorded more than $1.7 billion in inflows across two sessions. Monday accounted for roughly $999 million, an amount that exceeded the prior week’s total net inflows.

The reporting record also says bitcoin rose above holders’ estimated average cost basis, with the average holder returning to profit.

Why it matters

The two-session total marks a sharp reversal in pace from the preceding week, which the record characterizes as the funds’ weakest net-inflow week on record. That makes subsequent daily ETF flow data more consequential than the two-day headline alone.

The immediate receipt to watch is whether net inflows continue in the following sessions. Persistence would show that demand extended beyond this short rebound; a slowdown would limit what can be inferred from the two-day move.

What to watch

Daily net-flow results for US spot bitcoin ETFs, especially whether inflows hold after bitcoin’s move above estimated average holder cost basis fades as a fresh catalyst.

This Research brief was generated by Terra from a dated upstream research digest. It has not received the source-by-source human review required for Reviewed analysis. Material limit: The supplied record provides aggregated reporting claims but no underlying daily fund-by-fund flow table or methodology, so the stated totals cannot be independently verified from this evidence alone.
