US spot Bitcoin exchange-traded funds posted two straight weeks of net inflows. The streak marks their first back-to-back gains in five months. The latest data signals a shift in investor behavior after a long period of steady withdrawals. It also highlights renewed interest during a volatile phase for digital assets.
Spot Bitcoin ETFs drew $568.45 million in net inflows this week, according to SoSoValue data. The products added $787.31 million the week before. Those gains follow a five-week stretch of outflows that totaled about $3.8 billion. The largest withdrawal occurred in the week ending Jan. 30, when outflows reached roughly $1.49 billion.

Bitcoin ETFs Match Gold’s Long-Term Inflows
Industry comments cited the level of demand for Bitcoin ETFs. Blockstream marketing director Fernando Nikolić noted on X that Bitcoin ETFs had already accumulated the level of cumulative inflows seen by gold ETFs for the last 15 years. He noted that this milestone had been achieved within a period of less than two years of market presence.

He added that the achievement had come at a time when Bitcoin was experiencing a 46% price decline and a period of negative price movement for a few months. The achievement showed the continued interest of institutions despite the weak markets.
“Anyone still arguing about whether Bitcoin is ‘digital gold’ is wasting their breath,” he wrote. “Bitcoin isn’t trying to be gold. Bitcoin is making gold look slow.”
