Original Title: US Cryptocurrency ETFs Record $670 Million Inflows on First Trading Day of 2026
Original Link:
US spot cryptocurrency ETFs recorded a total net inflow of $669 million on January 2, reversing the strong selling pressure at the end of last year.
Bitcoin (BTC) products dominated this inflow, with an additional $471 million, while Ethereum (ETH) funds increased by $174 million.
This rebound marks the second-largest single-day inflow since November 11, following a record outflow of $4.57 billion between November and December.
A leading institution’s Bitcoin trust fund attracted approximately $287 million, leading all products.
What happened
Fidelity’s Bitcoin fund attracted $88 million, while Bitwise products recorded a net inflow of $41.5 million.
Grayscale’s Bitcoin Trust and Franklin Templeton funds recorded $15 million and $13 million respectively.
Ethereum products performed strongly across multiple issuers, with Grayscale’s main trust leading at $53.69 million.
Grayscale Ethereum Mini Trust attracted $50 million, while a top institution’s Ethereum fund gained $47 million.
Alternative cryptocurrency ETFs also posted gains, with XRP funds receiving $13.59 million and Solana products increasing by $8.53 million.
Dogecoin (DOGE) ETF recorded $2.3 million in inflows, marking the highest single-day figure since the product launch.
Why it matters
These inflows represent a sharp turnaround from the most severe period for cryptocurrency ETFs in the past two months.
Bitcoin ETFs experienced a combined outflow of $4.57 billion in November and December, coinciding with a 20% decline in Bitcoin prices.
On December 31 alone, Bitcoin ETF outflows totaled $348.1 million, led by a top institution, Fidelity, and other funds.
Ethereum ETFs lost over $2 billion during the same period but showed a trend reversal on Thursday.
Coordinated buying of Bitcoin, Ethereum, and alternative token products indicates that institutional investors are reallocating capital after tax-loss harvesting.
Data shows these figures represent the largest inflow for Bitcoin ETFs since November 11 and the largest Ethereum inflow since December 9.

New year, new atmosphere. The recent rebound in ETFs is real, with BTC leading the way, taking in 470 million, followed by ETH. It feels like retail investors are about to start sleepwalking again.

On the first day of the new year, it attracted 670 million in funds. BTC really impresses this time.

No, why is ETH only 170 million? The gap is a bit outrageous.
---
Since November, the second-largest inflow? What's the largest amount? Does anyone know?
---
End-of-year large sell-off turns into net inflow, this reversal speed is incredible.
---
Wake up everyone, institutions are quietly accumulating.

Alright, BTC is starting to attract funds again. This rhythm... The first thing institutions do when they go back to work in the new year is to spend money.
