Spot Bitcoin exchange-traded funds pulled in $996 million in net inflows last week, the strongest weekly total since early January. The January figure reached approximately $1.4 billion. Last week's performance signals a clear shift in investor appetite toward risk assets, according to data from SoSoValue.
Friday was the standout session, with $663.9 million flowing into spot Bitcoin ETFs in a single day. Tuesday recorded $411.5 million in inflows, followed by $186 million on Wednesday and $26 million on Thursday. Monday began the week with a $291 million outflow before sentiment reversed.
Total net assets across spot Bitcoin ETFs rose above $101 billion by Friday. Daily trading volumes approached $4.8 billion, reflecting a broad pickup in market participation. The combination of strong inflows and elevated volume points to renewed institutional and retail engagement with the asset class.
Analysts at Bitunix said markets are increasingly focused on how geopolitical tensions de-escalate, not simply whether they persist. Reduced pressure around U.S.-Iran relations has lowered the likelihood of extreme risk scenarios. That shift has weakened demand for traditional safe havens, including the U.S. dollar.
The Federal Reserve's cautious stance on rate cuts has added to the pressure on conventional assets. Elevated long-term yields and concerns about U.S. debt demand have further undermined confidence in what are typically considered low-risk holdings. Bitunix analysts said those dynamics have pushed additional capital toward alternatives like Bitcoin.
Bitunix described Bitcoin as being in a "classic liquidity redistribution phase." The analysts said Bitcoin is trading between resistance above $75,000 and support near $72,000. Liquidation data suggests the market is forming a new price range rather than trending in a single direction.
Iran's foreign minister confirmed on Friday that the Strait of Hormuz had been reopened to commercial shipping for the duration of the current ceasefire. U.S. President Donald Trump confirmed the development. Bitcoin briefly climbed above $77,000 following the announcement, while Brent crude fell roughly 10% to approximately $85 per barrel. The divergence reflected a clear rotation in investor positioning.
