US spot Bitcoin exchange-traded funds demonstrated sustained institutional appetite Monday, adding $337.6 million in net inflows to close out their sixth consecutive day of gains. Over this six-trading-day window, the funds amassed $2.26 billion in fresh capital—a significant turnaround from the net outflows that plagued these vehicles for much of the year. Year-to-date, these funds still carry net outflows of approximately $2.57 billion, though this represents meaningful improvement, according to SoSoValue.

Weekly Momentum Hits Highest Level Since October 2025

Last week proved particularly robust for the Bitcoin ETF complex, bringing $1.92 billion in new money—the strongest weekly performance since October 2025. Since inception, these funds have accumulated $54 billion in cumulative net inflows and currently manage approximately $98.56 billion in assets under administration.

The improving capital flows coincided with dramatic price appreciation. Bitcoin rallied to around $80,700, advancing more than 20 percent over the seven-day period. Market sentiment shifted decisively in tandem with the price action. The Crypto Fear & Greed Index, tracked by Alternative.me, moved into “Greed” territory starting Thursday and held that posture through the reporting window, reaching 74—its highest level since October 2025. The move reflected a sharp reversal after an extended period of fear-driven market conditions.

Ether and XRP ETFs Extend the Rally

Bitcoin’s inflow momentum was not confined to spot ETFs tracking the flagship cryptocurrency. Ether spot ETFs recorded their sixth consecutive day of inflows on Monday, welcoming $115.6 million and bringing their six-day cumulative total to approximately $812.8 million. These funds remain at roughly $1.30 billion in net outflows year-to-date.

XRP-focused spot ETFs participated directly in Monday’s inflow activity, recording $13.8 million in new capital. Year-to-date, XRP ETF inflows have totaled nearly $400 million, demonstrating sustained institutional interest in Ripple’s digital asset independent of broader market cycles. Since inception, these funds have accumulated $1.57 billion in net inflows—a particularly positive indicator for XRP as it establishes itself as a destination asset within traditional investment infrastructure.

The six-day inflow streak across major crypto ETFs signals institutional conviction is solidifying, with XRP gaining particular traction through traditional finance channels.
