🔑Price impact: Slightly positive, as increased ETF inflows may suggest institutional confidence amid market uncertainty
🔑Market context: The inflow reflects cautious optimism amidst broader market declines and heightened risk aversion.
✅Market Overview
The start of 2026 brought a noteworthy return of inflows into US spot Bitcoin and Ether ETFs, with the combined total reaching nearly $646 million. Specifically, Bitcoin ETFs attracted $471.3 million, the largest net inflow in 35 trading days since mid-November, when the sector saw an even higher $524 million influx. Concurrently, Ether ETFs recorded their strongest single-day inflows since December 9, with $174.5 million added.
These inflows come despite a broader downturn in crypto prices, which have declined by approximately 1.56% for Bitcoin and 1.39% for Ether over the past month. The downward trend followed Bitcoin's peak of $125,100 on October 5 and the subsequent $19 billion liquidation event on October 10, which shook confidence among investors.
The market sentiment, as measured by the Crypto Fear & Greed Index, remains fragile, with the index lingering in "Extreme Fear" territory since early November and reverting to a score of 25 this Sunday. Such mood swings reflect widespread caution among participants.
