also posting strong demand.<\/li>\n<li data-start=\"78\" data-end=\"573\">Cumulative net inflows into US spot Bitcoin ETFs have exceeded $57 billion.<\/li>\n<li data-start=\"78\" data-end=\"573\">Shifting US rate expectations are shaping institutional ETF positioning.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p data-start=\"78\" data-end=\"573\">Spot Bitcoin exchange-traded funds listed in the US recorded a sharp revival in inflows on Wednesday, signalling renewed institutional engagement after weeks of uneven activity.<\/p>\n<p data-start=\"78\" data-end=\"573\">The move marked the strongest single-day intake in more than a month and coincided with shifting expectations around US monetary policy.<\/p>\n<p data-start=\"78\" data-end=\"573\">While Bitcoin\u2019s price action remains constrained by heavy supply levels, ETF flows suggest investors are reassessing exposure through regulated products as macro conditions evolve.<\/p>\n<h2 data-start=\"575\" data-end=\"613\">Inflows rebound across major funds<\/h2>\n<p data-start=\"615\" data-end=\"972\">US spot Bitcoin ETFs recorded $457 million in net inflows on Wednesday, their highest daily total since mid-November.<\/p>\n<p data-start=\"615\" data-end=\"972\">Fidelity\u2019s Wise Origin Bitcoin Fund led the session, attracting roughly $391 million and accounting for the bulk of the inflows.<\/p>\n<p data-start=\"615\" data-end=\"972\">BlackRock\u2019s iShares Bitcoin Trust followed with around $111 million, according to <a href=\"https:\/\/farside.co.uk\/btc\/\">data from Farside Investors<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p data-start=\"974\" data-end=\"1278\">The latest intake pushed cumulative net inflows for US spot Bitcoin ETFs above $57 billion.<\/p>\n<p data-start=\"974\" data-end=\"1278\">Total net assets climbed past $112 billion, equivalent to about 6.5% of Bitcoin\u2019s total market capitalisation.<\/p>\n<p data-start=\"974\" data-end=\"1278\">The figures underline the growing role ETFs play in shaping institutional access to Bitcoin exposure.<\/p>\n<h2 data-start=\"1280\" data-end=\"1317\">Shift after weeks of uneven flows<\/h2>\n<p data-start=\"1319\" data-end=\"1723\">The inflow revival comes after a choppy period through November and early December, when ETF activity swung between modest inflows and sharp outflows.<\/p>\n<p data-start=\"1319\" data-end=\"1723\">That instability reflected cautious positioning amid uncertain price direction and tightening liquidity conditions.<\/p>\n<p data-start=\"1319\" data-end=\"1723\">The last time spot Bitcoin ETFs recorded inflows above $450 million was on November 11, when funds drew roughly $524 million in a single day.<\/p>\n<p data-start=\"1725\" data-end=\"1995\">The renewed activity suggests investors may be positioning earlier in anticipation of changing macro conditions, rather than responding to short-term price momentum.<\/p>\n<p data-start=\"1725\" data-end=\"1995\">ETF flows have increasingly become a barometer for how institutions interpret broader financial signals.<\/p>\n<h2 data-start=\"1997\" data-end=\"2038\">US rate signals influence positioning<\/h2>\n<p data-start=\"2040\" data-end=\"2463\">Macro expectations shifted further on Wednesday after US President Donald Trump said he plans to appoint a new Federal Reserve chair who strongly supports cutting interest rates.<\/p>\n<p data-start=\"2040\" data-end=\"2463\">Speaking during a national address marking the first year of his second term, Trump said he would announce a successor to current Fed Chair Jerome Powell early next year.<\/p>\n<p data-start=\"2040\" data-end=\"2463\">He added that all known finalists favour lower rates than current levels.<\/p>\n<p data-start=\"2465\" data-end=\"2746\">Lower interest rates are generally viewed as supportive for risk assets such as crypto, as they ease financial conditions and improve liquidity.<\/p>\n<p data-start=\"2465\" data-end=\"2746\">Against this backdrop, spot Bitcoin ETFs appear to be attracting capital as a relatively direct way to express macro-driven positioning.<\/p>\n<h2 data-start=\"2748\" data-end=\"2793\">Price pressure and fragile demand persist<\/h2>\n<p data-start=\"2795\" data-end=\"3185\">Despite stronger ETF inflows, Bitcoin\u2019s market structure remains under pressure.<\/p>\n<p data-start=\"2795\" data-end=\"3185\">The asset has returned to price levels last seen nearly a year ago, leaving a dense supply zone between $93,000 and $120,000 that continues to cap recovery attempts.<\/p>\n<p data-start=\"2795\" data-end=\"3185\">This has pushed the amount of Bitcoin held at a loss to around 6.7 million BTC, the highest level of the current cycle, <a href=\"https:\/\/insights.glassnode.com\/the-week-onchain-week-50-2025\/?utm_campaign=WoC_51_25&amp;utm_medium=email&amp;utm_source=newsletter\">according to Glassnode<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p data-start=\"3187\" data-end=\"3599\">Glassnode data also points to fragile demand across both spot and derivatives markets.<\/p>\n<p data-start=\"3187\" data-end=\"3599\">Spot buying has been selective and short-lived, corporate treasury flows episodic, and futures positioning continues to de-risk rather than rebuild conviction.<\/p>\n<p data-start=\"3187\" data-end=\"3599\">Until sellers are absorbed above $95,000 or fresh liquidity enters the market, Bitcoin is likely to remain range-bound, with structural support forming near $81,000.<\/p>\n<div class=\"post-meta\">\n<hr
