US spot Bitcoin exchange-traded funds (ETFs) recorded their strongest week of inflows this year, drawing $2.39 billion after adding $134.5 million on Friday.
The weekly total was the largest since the week ending Oct. 10, 2025, when net inflows totaled $2.71 billion, according to SoSoValue. It also surpassed the previous 2026 high of $1.92 billion recorded in August.
The funds’ year-to-date flows rose to about $926 million on Friday, recovering from a year-to-date deficit that reached roughly $5.55 billion in early July.
Daily net inflows slowed after they reached nearly $1 billion on Monday, while Bitcoin retreated from above $87,100. Bitcoin traded at about $83,116 at the time of publication, down 1.6% over the past 24 hours but still up 1.7% over the past seven days, according to CoinGecko.

The Crypto Fear & Greed Index stood at 74, up from 70 a week earlier still in “Greed” territory, according to Alternative.me.
US spot Ether ETFs attracted about $690 million in net inflows last week, reversing roughly $140 million in outflows the previous week, while spot XRP ETFs added about $76 million, according to SoSoValue.
