Spot Bitcoin ETFs extend inflow streak to five days for first time in 2026

US spot Bitcoin ETFs just pulled off their first five-day inflow streak of 2026 — a solid $767.32 million this week alone. Friday added $180.33 million, keeping the momentum alive. The real flex? Tuesday’s $250.92 million haul, according to SoSoValue data.

Last time we saw a run like this was late November 2025 — five straight days from Nov. 25 to Dec. 2, netting $284.61 million total.

Overall stats are looking juicy: $91.83 billion in net assets, $56.14 billion cumulative net inflows, and $4.93 billion traded just today.

Meanwhile, US spot Ether ETFs are on a four-day heater — $26.69 million in net inflows on Friday, bringing the streak total to roughly $212.14 million. Thursday was the big day with $115.85 million, reversing earlier March outflows.

Cumulative net inflows for Ether ETFs now sit at $11.79 billion, with total net assets at $12.26 billion and $1.30 billion traded today.

This is the first sustained inflow run for both Bitcoin and Ether ETFs this year after a volatile start to 2026 filled with heavy outflows.

Rising Middle East tensions and energy market volatility are hitting global risk sentiment. Bitunix analysts say escalating conflict around the Strait of Hormuz and high oil prices have increased macro uncertainty, reducing expectations for aggressive Fed rate cuts. Investors are now focusing on short-term liquidity over long-term risk exposure.

Bitcoin’s stuck in a range. Bitunix points to derivatives liquidation heatmaps showing key short-liquidity resistance near $71,300, with a bigger cluster between $72,000 and $73,500.

On the downside, support sits around $69,000, with deeper long liquidation levels near $68,800. Translation: BTC’s likely to keep consolidating unless macro catalysts trigger a breakout.
