Bitcoin spot ETFs attracted a fresh wave of capital on Wednesday, pulling in $757 million in net inflows as BTC climbed past $114,000. The biggest daily gains came into Fidelity’s FBTC ($299M), BlackRock’s IBIT ($211M) and Ark Invest’s ARKB ($145M).
At the same time, Ether ETFs reversed recent redemptions, recording about $171 million of net inflows. BlackRock’s ETHA led the sector with $74.5M, followed by Fidelity’s FETH at $49.5M, as ETH pushed above $4,400.
Monthly and multi‑month figures show the rebound is meaningful: bitcoin ETFs have added $1.39 billion so far in September, offsetting August’s $751 million in outflows. Over the past six months ETF inflows for bitcoin have been consistently positive, peaking at $6.02 billion in July. By contrast, Ethereum ETFs posted their first monthly outflow in September, losing $669 million after drawing about $9.3 billion across June–August.
Why this matters: sustained ETF inflows can create a structural bid under crypto prices by concentrating institutional and retail demand in products that buy and hold spot tokens. That demand helped underpin earlier rallies in 2025 and could amplify price moves if money market or cash allocations rotate into these exchange‑traded products.
Traders are also positioning ahead of a key Federal Reserve decision next week. Markets currently price a high probability of a 25 bps cut, and any shift in the path of interest rates or cash‑market flows could materially affect ETF demand and broader crypto sentiment.
Risk note: ETF flows and short‑term price moves can reverse quickly. This update is market reporting, not investment advice—readers should consider portfolio risk, liquidity needs and do their own research before trading.
