Bitcoin ETFs Experience Fifth Straight Day of Inflows
Bitcoin exchange-traded funds (ETFs) recorded a fifth consecutive day of inflows, totaling about $227 million on July 20, according to SoSoValue data, as reported by CoinDesk. This marks the longest stretch of inflows since late April and signals a shift following a period of significant outflows.
Bitcoin exchange-traded funds (ETFs) saw inflows for five consecutive days, accumulating approximately $227 million on July 20. This influx is the first of its kind since late April 2026, based on data from SoSoValue. Over this five-day period, the total inflows reached about $727 million, a notable reversal from the record outflows experienced in June.
Alongside Bitcoin, ether ETFs attracted around $38 million, with BlackRock's ETHA contributing approximately $34 million to this figure. This uptick comes as Bitcoin prices remain stable near $63,000, following a selloff linked to chip supply issues that occurred the previous week. The return of inflows into ETFs has played a crucial role in this recovery, filling a gap in the market that had been characterized by persistent outflows.
The current market sentiment will be tested as the Federal Reserve is scheduled to meet on July 28 and 29, and significant earnings reports from major technology companies, including Alphabet, Tesla, and Intel, will be released this week. These reports will indicate whether the recent rise in artificial intelligence spending — which has influenced Bitcoin's movements — will continue.
