Gate News: On March 18, the US Bitcoin ETF experienced another consecutive influx of funds, marking the longest streak of growth in five months. According to SoSoValue, Bitcoin funds saw a net inflow of $199.4 million on Tuesday, with BlackRock’s IBIT fund receiving $169 million, Fidelity’s FBTC fund attracting $24.4 million, and funds from Ark, 21Shares, and VanEck also recording inflows. Over the past seven trading days, spot Bitcoin ETFs have attracted approximately $1.17 billion, indicating that institutional investors’ confidence in Bitcoin is returning.
BTC Markets analyst Rachael Lucas stated that these funds mainly come from long-term investors rather than short-term speculators. “Seven consecutive days of net inflows, with six days approaching $1 billion, suggest this is structural buying rather than impulsive trading.” This demand has helped Bitcoin remain relatively stable despite geopolitical volatility and a 15% price increase. Lucas pointed out that each price correction is absorbed by institutional buying, stabilizing the price trend.
Meanwhile, spot Ethereum ETFs have recorded net inflows for the sixth consecutive trading day, totaling $138.3 million. Solana ETF and XRP ETF also saw inflows of $17.8 million and $4.6 million, respectively. Analysts believe this reflects growing institutional interest in mainstream crypto assets.
Additionally, the US Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) and the Commodity Futures Trading Commission (CFTC) released a 68-page guidance document clarifying that most cryptocurrencies are not securities, providing regulatory clarity for the market. Lucas noted that this will eliminate concerns among institutional investors about compliance risks and pave the way for more crypto ETF products and altcoin participation, further promoting long-term market development.
These developments indicate that institutional funds are steadily flowing into Bitcoin and Ethereum markets, boosting digital asset trading activity and strengthening the position of cryptocurrencies in the global financial system.
