Bitcoin ETF Inflows Reach 2026 High
US spot Bitcoin exchange-traded funds recorded $998.9 million in daily net inflows on Monday, according to SoSoValue data.
The figure easily surpassed the previous 2026 record of $844 million, which was set on Jan. 14.
Monday’s inflows were also the highest since Oct. 6, 2025. On that day, US spot Bitcoin ETFs attracted more than $1.2 billion.
Despite the latest surge in demand, the funds remain in negative territory for the year. US spot Bitcoin ETFs have recorded approximately $464 million in net outflows so far in 2026.
BlackRock Leads Bitcoin ETF Inflows
BlackRock’s iShares Bitcoin Trust (IBIT) recorded the largest inflow on Monday, attracting approximately $381 million.
The ARK 21Shares Bitcoin ETF (ARKB) followed with $289 million in inflows. Meanwhile, Fidelity’s Wise Origin Bitcoin Fund (FBTC) added around $239 million, according to Farside Investors data.

Bitcoin Briefly Breaks Above $87,000
Bitcoin was trading at around $85,430 at the time of publication, gaining 4.7% over the previous 24 hours.
The cryptocurrency was also up 12.3% over the past month and briefly climbed above $87,200 on Monday, according to CoinGecko.
The move brought Bitcoin back above an important long-term technical level.
CryptoQuant analyst Julio Moreno said Bitcoin had moved above its 365-day moving average. He described the breakout as the final signal needed to confirm a new bull market.
Ether ETFs Record Strongest Inflows of 2026
