US spot Bitcoin ETFs post seventh straight day of inflows as August crosses $3 billion

Bitcoin ETFs stretch inflow run to seven trading days

United States spot Bitcoin exchange-traded funds (ETFs) — funds that hold bitcoin and trade on stock exchanges — took in $314.37 million on Tuesday. That was their seventh straight trading day of net inflows, meaning more money moved into the funds than out, according to data from the crypto fund tracker SoSoValue.

The run has pushed August inflows to $3.03 billion. With four trading sessions left in the month, that total sits $390 million below what the funds drew during October 2025.

The key numbers

  • Tuesday net inflows: $314.37 million for US spot Bitcoin ETFs.
  • August inflows so far: $3.03 billion, per SoSoValue.
  • The rebound has cut the funds' year-to-date net outflows by more than half, to $2.26 billion.
  • Total net assets reached $99.05 billion, while cumulative net inflows rose to $54.36 billion.
  • US spot Ether ETFs also logged a seventh day of inflows, adding $179.8 million on Tuesday and roughly $1 billion over the period.

Bitcoin price and market mood

At publishing time, Bitcoin traded at $78,880, down 2% over the past 24 hours, according to CoinGecko. It briefly climbed above $80,000 on Tuesday.

Sentiment cooled slightly. The Crypto Fear & Greed Index — a 0-to-100 gauge of market mood, where higher readings signal greed — slipped to 65 from 74 a day earlier, though it stayed in "Greed" territory, according to Alternative.me.

Why the streak matters

US spot Bitcoin ETFs had been in the red for the year so far. The August inflows have shrunk that year-to-date deficit by more than half, leaving it at $2.26 billion. If current flows hold, August would become the funds' strongest month since October 2025.

What comes next

Four trading sessions remain in August. Whether the month overtakes October 2025's inflow total depends on how much enters the funds over those days.
