US-listed spot Bitcoin exchange-traded funds (ETFs) recorded strong renewed investor demand on Tuesday, attracting approximately $411.5 million in net inflows as institutional interest returned to the crypto market.
The inflows lifted year-to-date net flows for 2026 back into positive territory at around $245 million, while total assets under management across Bitcoin ETFs rose above $96.5 billion, marking the highest level since mid-March.
The surge in demand came as Goldman Sachs filed with US regulators to launch a Bitcoin-linked ETF, signaling growing institutional expansion into crypto-based investment products.
Spot Bitcoin ETFs, tied to Bitcoin, continued to attract capital across major issuers. The strongest single-day inflow came from BlackRock’s iShares Bitcoin Trust ETF, which led with roughly $214 million in inflows.
Other major contributors included funds associated with Morgan Stanley, as well as the ARK Invest and Fidelity Investments-linked Bitcoin products, which also posted significant inflows during the session.
Market data showed no US-listed spot Bitcoin ETF recorded outflows on the day, extending recent positive momentum across the sector. Analysts noted that the consistent inflow streaks from major institutional products reflect improving sentiment toward digital asset investment vehicles.
The broader crypto ETF market also saw gains, with Ether-based funds attracting fresh inflows, while smaller allocations were recorded in XRP and Solana products. Even niche Dogecoin-related ETFs registered modest inflows, indicating broad-based but selective risk appetite.
Bitcoin briefly climbed above $75,000 during the session its highest level in nearly a month before easing slightly, reflecting continued volatility despite improving institutional participation.
Market observers say the latest inflow trend suggests stabilizing confidence in crypto ETFs, though sustainability will depend on macroeconomic conditions and regulatory clarity in the coming weeks.
