Gate News news: On April 6, 2026, U.S. spot Bitcoin ETFs recorded a net inflow of $471 million, setting the largest single-day capital inflow in more than a month, indicating that institutional capital is reshuffling its positions amid a choppy market.
In terms of fund allocation, BlackRock’s IBIT and Fidelity’s FBTC are taking the lead, attracting approximately $182 million and $147 million respectively. Together, they account for about $329 million, contributing the majority of the day’s total inflows. This pattern continues the market concentration trend seen since the ETFs were launched in 2024.
Despite the clear return of funds, the price of Bitcoin is still trading within a volatile range. Data shows that Bitcoin, after peaking in October 2025, once pulled back by about 45%. The current price is trading around $68,000. ETF inflows and the price trend show a certain divergence, suggesting that institutions are conducting more structural positioning rather than simply chasing the rally.
On an overall scale, the total assets under management for U.S. spot Bitcoin ETFs have come close to $90 billion. Among them, IBIT holds roughly $54.5 billion, accounting for nearly 60% of the share, and its cumulative net inflow totals about $56 billion.
Looking back at the first quarter of 2026, ETF fund flows showed divergence. In January and February, net outflows of about $1.8 billion occurred in the aggregate due to inflation pressure and expectations around Federal Reserve policy. In March, as the market stabilized, it recorded net inflows of about $1.3 billion again, with sentiment improving somewhat.
However, the market remains cautious about macro variables. The upcoming U.S. March CPI data and the core PCE indicator may become key factors affecting Bitcoin and ETF fund flows. If inflation rebounds above expectations, the timing of risk-asset allocation may adjust again.
