- US spot Bitcoin ETFs recorded US$221.7 million in net inflows on Thursday, their largest single-day intake in about two months.
- The inflows ended a punishing 10-day outflow streak that had drained US$2.73 billion led this time by Fidelity’s FBTC.
- BlackRock’s IBIT bucked the rebound with an outflow, and a US$5.4 billion year-to-date deficit shows one strong session is far from a recovery.
US spot Bitcoin exchange-traded funds snapped a brutal losing run on Thursday, pulling in US$221.7 million (AU$319.25 million) in their biggest single-day intake in roughly two months and halting a 10-day stretch of investor withdrawals.
The rebound reversed, at least for a day, a 10-day outflow streak that had bled US$2.73 billion (AU$3.93 billion) from the funds. It coincided with Bitcoin’s recovery to around US$61,700 (AU$88,848), clawing back ground after the token slid to 21-month lows earlier in the week.

Fidelity Leads, BlackRock Lags
Fidelity’s FBTC led with US$165.96 million (AU$239.0 million) in inflows, and the Ark and 21Shares ARKB fund added US$91.84 million (AU$132.25 million). BlackRock’s IBIT, the world’s largest Bitcoin ETF, bucked the trend with a US$40.43 million (AU$58.22 million) outflow.
The single-day rebound landed against a backdrop of thin conviction, with traders wary of calling a bottom after weeks of selling that had dragged the funds to their worst stretch in months and left sentiment fragile heading into the new week.
US spot Bitcoin ETFs are still sitting on a US$5.4 billion (AU$7.78 billion) net outflow in 2026, a deficit a single strong day does little to close.
