Spot Bitcoin ETFs have kicked off 2026 with strong momentum after heavy outflows at the end of 2025. On January 2, ETFs recorded $471M in net inflows, followed by an even bigger $697M on January 5 — the strongest day since the October correction. BlackRock’s IBIT led the surge, highlighting renewed institutional confidence.
With Bitcoin trading near $93K–$94K, these inflows signal improving sentiment, better liquidity, and growing mainstream adoption. While macro and regulatory risks remain, early 2026 data suggests institutions are positioning for long-term exposure.
