US-listed spot Bitcoin exchange-traded funds recorded $471 million in inflows on Monday, their largest single-day figure since February 25, when the funds attracted $507 million, according to data from SoSoValue. The surge in flows coincided with Bitcoin’s price briefly approaching $70,000 before retreating below $69,000, based on figures from CoinGecko. The price movement took place against a backdrop of ongoing geopolitical pressure and renewed concerns about Bitcoin’s quantum resistance. The Crypto Fear & Greed Index remained deep in “Extreme Fear” territory, registering a reading of 13.
BlackRock‘s iShares Bitcoin Trust ETF led all funds with approximately $182 million in inflows, according to data from Farside. The Fidelity Wise Origin Bitcoin Fund came in second with $147 million, while the ARK 21Shares Bitcoin ETF ranked third with nearly $119 million. The ARK 21Shares figure represented that fund’s largest daily inflow since July 10, 2025.
Separately, blockchain analytics platform Arkham noted that ETF outflows slowed sharply in the prior week, with major issuers selling only about $16.6 million worth of Bitcoin in total. ARK Invest‘s ETF was the most active buyer during that period, purchasing approximately $34 million in Bitcoin over the course of the week. The data suggests that selling pressure from institutional issuers had largely subsided heading into the new trading week.
Across the first three trading sessions of April, US spot Bitcoin ETFs accumulated roughly $307 million in net inflows. That figure was enough to push total assets under management back above $90 billion. The recovery follows a difficult stretch for the funds, which saw outflows of $1.61 billion in January and $207 million in February before returning to positive territory in March with $1.3 billion in inflows.
Spot Ether ETFs also benefited from the improved market sentiment on Monday, recording $120 million in inflows. That amount more than offset the $78 million in outflows those funds had experienced across the two prior trading sessions. Despite Monday’s positive result, Ether ETFs had posted three consecutive months of net losses, with total outflows for that period reaching approximately $770 million.
Activity among other altcoin-focused funds was largely subdued. XRP ETFs recorded zero inflows on Monday, while Solana ETFs attracted only about $247,000. The contrast between Bitcoin and Ether flows on one side and other altcoin products on the other highlights the degree to which investor interest remains concentrated in the two largest cryptocurrencies by market capitalization.
