U.S. spot Bitcoin ETFs pulled in roughly $217 million on Monday, snapping back after the $202 million that left the funds on Friday. That one-day outflow had ended a nine-day buying streak stretching back to Aug. 19, matching the longest inflow run of the year.
Why it matters
Friday's red day came on the heels of Kevin Warsh's Jackson Hole remarks, which pushed rate-hike expectations higher and triggered a quick re-pricing across rate-sensitive assets. The Monday rebound suggests allocators read the wobble as a one-session adjustment, not the start of a reversal. This week's prints will settle which reading holds.
Spot Ether ETFs never broke stride. Monday's $88 million marked an 11th consecutive day of net buying worth $1.6 billion, the longest run for the products since a 20-day streak that ended in July 2025.
Market impact
August closed as the strongest month of 2026 for Bitcoin ETFs by a wide margin, more than double what April managed. Net assets for the BTC complex finished August just under $100 billion, having crossed that line on Aug. 27 before Friday's selling pulled them back. Cumulative net inflows since launch in January 2024 now sit near $55 billion, even as the funds still carry a net outflow of roughly $2.5 billion year to date.
