Weekly bitcoin ETF inflows have now topped $750 million, a pace that would have looked out of reach a month earlier.<\/p>\n<p>The streak traces back to Monday, August 3, and has run through Friday without a single down day. This lies in stark contrast to the choppy, stop-start pattern that defined bitcoin ETF flows for most of the year. Solana and XRP ETF products, by comparison, logged effectively zero net change on August 7.<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_837792\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-837792\" style=\"width:1007px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-837792\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Image source: X<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>Blackrock\u2019s IBIT <a href=\"https:\/\/news.bitcoin.com\/bitcoin-etf\/bitcoin-ether-etfs-add-220-million-as-blackrock-leads-again\/\">did the heavy lifting<\/a> and over the Monday-through-Wednesday stretch that kicked off the current run, IBIT alone captured $479 million of the $626 million in total bitcoin ETF inflows (roughly 76% of everything that came in).<\/p>\n<p>Fidelity\u2019s FBTC added $19.6 million over the same three days, ARK 21Shares\u2019 ARKB brought in $9.2 million, and Bitwise\u2019s BITB added $8.7 million. Lastly, it bears mentioning that Grayscale\u2019s older GBTC product has now shed a cumulative $27.47 billion since its ETF conversion in early 2024.<\/p>\n<h2>Ether\u2019s Streak Has the Same Shape<\/h2>\n<p>The Ether side of the rally follows an almost identical pattern to bitcoin\u2019s. On August 5, spot Ether ETFs added $60.86 million in total, and Blackrock\u2019s ETHA alone brought in $50.34 million of that (about 83%). Fidelity\u2019s FETH managed just $2.87 million, while Bitwise\u2019s ETHW and 21Shares\u2019 TETH each pulled in roughly $1.3 million. Blackrock\u2019s staked-ether fund, ETHB, added a further $4.94 million on top of ETHA\u2019s haul.<\/p>\n<p>That lopsided split means the \u201cfour straight days\u201d of Ether ETF inflows is, in practice, mostly a Blackrock story layered on top of a bitcoin one. Smaller issuers are technically participating in the streak, but the dollar amounts involved are thin enough that a single large Blackrock allocation on any given day can single-handedly decide whether the category posts a green or red session.<\/p>\n<h2>What\u2019s Fueling the Rebound<\/h2>\n<p>The recovery follows a rough stretch where spot bitcoin ETFs recorded <a href=\"https:\/\/news.bitcoin.com\/bitcoin-etfs-post-first-negative-half-with-5-4-billion-in-outflows-dwf-labs-says\/\">$5.4 billion in net outflows<\/a> during the first half of 2026, their first negative half-year since the products launched in early 2024. A seven-session inflow streak in July that had briefly restored confidence, <a href=\"https:\/\/news.bitcoin.com\/bitcoin-etfs-add-69-million-as-7-session-streak-nears-1-billion\/\">collecting nearly $1 billion<\/a>, but snapped abruptly on July 24 with a single-day <a href=\"https:\/\/news.bitcoin.com\/ether-etfs-add-26-million-as-bitcoins-7-day-streak-ends\/\">outflow of $225.18 million <\/a>(only for buyers to return in the first week of August).<\/p>\n<p>Part of the renewed appetite seems to be regulatory, given that asset manager Franklin Templeton has pointed to the prospect of federal crypto market-structure rules as a potential turning point, posturing it as a shift that could eventually open bank balance-sheet liquidity to the asset class for the first time.<\/p>\n<p>Weak U.S. jobs data <a href=\"https:\/\/x.com\/BullTheoryio\/status\/2085716663333171469\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">released this week<\/a> also boosted rate-cut expectations, lifting risk appetite across equities and crypto alike; the S&amp;P 500 closed the week at a record high alongside the ETF rebound.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-837793\" title=\"Blackrock's IBIT Captures $479M as Bitcoin ETFs Extend Streak\" src=\"https:\/\/static.news.bitcoin.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/08\/blackrocks-ibit-captures-479m-as-bitcoin-etfs-extend-streak3_nwmk.jpg\" alt=\"Blackrock's IBIT Captures $479M as Bitcoin ETFs Extend Streak\" width=\"1080\" height=\"802\" srcset=\"https:\/\/static.news.bitcoin.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/08\/blackrocks-ibit-captures-479m-as-bitcoin-etfs-extend-streak3_nwmk-300x223.jpg 300w, https:\/\/static.news.bitcoin.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/08\/blackrocks-ibit-captures-479m-as-bitcoin-etfs-extend-streak3_nwmk-1024x760.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/static.news.bitcoin.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/08\/blackrocks-ibit-captures-479m-as-bitcoin-etfs-extend-streak3_nwmk-768x570.jpg 768w, https:\/\/static.news.bitcoin.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/08\/blackrocks-ibit-captures-479m-as-bitcoin-etfs-extend-streak3_nwmk.jpg 1080w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1080px) 100vw, 1080px\"\/><\/p>\n<p>Whether the streak extends into a second week depends largely on whether Blackrock\u2019s flows hold up once the current wave of institutional rebalancing runs its course.
