U.S. spot Bitcoin exchange-traded funds (ETFs) recorded a net inflow of $552.78 million on Thursday, according to Farside Investors, extending a four-day streak of positive flows as institutional demand returned.
BlackRock’s iShares Bitcoin Trust (IBIT) led the inflows with $366.2 million, while Fidelity’s Bitcoin Fund (FBTC) attracted $134.7 million.
Bitwise’s BITB added $40.43 million, and funds managed by VanEck, Invesco and Franklin Templeton also registered inflows.
Those four trading days produced a cumulative inflow of $1.7 billion.

This follows August outflows of $751 million, making it the third-worst month since the ETFs launched in January.
August also saw strong activity in Ethereum-focused products: spot Ether ETFs posted $3.87 billion in inflows, the second-best month since their debut.
That trend helped fuel a narrative of “capital rotation,” which contributed to Bitcoin’s dip to roughly $107,500 at the end of the month.
Ether ETFs began September with several days of outflows but returned to positive territory on Tuesday. On Thursday, those ETFs recorded $113.12 million in inflows.
Bitcoin and Ether Prices Rebounded
On Friday, Bitcoin traded above $115,000, representing a near 4% gain for the week after breaking and closing above key resistance levels.
Ethereum and Ripple also rebounded, rising roughly 5% and 6% respectively.
Bitcoin started the week facing resistance at its 50-day exponential moving average (EMA) near $113,129, but rallied more than 2% on Wednesday to close above that level and extended gains into Thursday.
At the time of writing, BTC was approaching daily resistance around $116,000. A close above that level could open the path toward the psychological $120,000 mark.
Since August 29, Ethereum has been consolidating between $4,232 and $4,488.
On Friday it approached the upper end of that range at $4,488. A breakout above that level could set the stage for a move toward the all-time high near $4,956.
Market participants are also focused on the upcoming Federal Open Market Committee meeting on September 16–17.
According to the CME Group’s FedWatch Tool, futures pricing implies a 92.5% probability of a 25-basis-point cut and a 7.5% probability of a 50-basis-point cut.
