Crypto: Bitcoin Etfs Post $258m Inflows As Institutional Q4 Selling Hits...

US spot Bitcoin ETF flows turned green on Tuesday, with Fidelity and BlackRock leading gains despite persistent weak market sentiment.

Flows into US spot Bitcoin exchange-traded funds turned positive Tuesday as the price of Bitcoin made a modest recovery to $65,000, snapping a run of daily redemptions.

Spot Bitcoin (BTC) ETFs recorded $257.7 million in inflows, marking the largest daily total since early February, according to SoSoValue data.

The gains more than offset Monday’s outflows of $203.8 million, pushing weekly flows back into positive territory after five consecutive weeks of net redemptions totaling $3.8 billion.

Despite the rebound, broader market sentiment remained weak, with analysts estimating that about half of Bitcoin’s circulating supply was underwater, compounded by reports of heavy institutional selling in the fourth quarter of 2025.

Since the beginning of 2026, total assets under management in US spot Bitcoin ETFs have fallen 30.5%, dropping from about $117 billion to $81.3 billion.

Fidelity Investments’ spot Bitcoin ETF, the Fidelity Wise Origin Bitcoin Fund (FBTC), led Tuesday’s gains with almost $83 million in inflows, according to Farside data.

BlackRock’s iShares Bitcoin Trust ETF (IBIT) followed closely, recording $79 million of inflows.

The cumulative net flows remained above $54 billion after peaking above $62 billion in October 2025, signaling that many investors continued to hold.

Bloomberg ETF analyst James Seyffart reported Tuesday that institutional investors led by advisers and hedge funds sold a total of 25,000 Bitcoin in the fourth quarter of 2025.
