Bitcoin Holds Steady As ETF Inflows Continue And State Reserve Efforts Face Setback
Bitcoin (CRYPTO: BTC) is trading near flat on Wednesday, up 0.14% to $83,788 at the time of writing. The world’s largest cryptocurrency is up 0.44% over the past week but is down 0.74% on the month as price action stabilizes following last week’s macro-driven selloff.
Spot Bitcoin ETFs Log $76 Million in Inflows
After suffering nearly $900 million in outflows last week, spot Bitcoin ETFs are showing signs of recovery. The funds recorded $76.4 million in net inflows on Tuesday, extending a two-day rebound after a brutal seven-day streak of outflows. BlackRock’s IBIT led the charge with $38.2 million in net new capital, while ARKB and BITB also saw healthy gains.
Total trading volume across the 12 ETFs came in at $1.6 billion on Tuesday, down from $2.2 billion the day before, according to The Block. Analysts say the recovery in CME futures basis yields has revived interest in the spot/futures arbitrage trade, helping support inflows.
