Bitcoin spot ETFs recorded a total net inflow of $39.425 million on Aug. 21, showcasing continued investor interest despite looming economic uncertainties.
What Happened: This positive trend comes as Bitcoin‘s (CRYPTO: BTC) price surged above the psychologically significant $61,000 mark to trade at $61,200 at the time of writing, up 3.0%.
The inflows were led by Grayscale’s mini ETF (NYSE:BTC) and Fidelity‘s (BATS:FBTC), which saw inflows of $14.2002 million and $10.6872 million respectively.
However, Grayscale‘s flagship (OTC:GBTC) experienced an outflow of $9.8225 million, indicating a mixed sentiment among institutional investors, according to data from SoSo Value.
In contrast, Ethereum spot ETFs faced a total net outflow of $17.9688 million on the same day.
Grayscale‘s (NYSE:ETHE) bore the brunt with an outflow of $31.1431 million, while Fidelity‘s (CBOE: FETH) and Grayscale’s mini ETF (NYSE:ETH) saw inflows of $7.9286 million and $4.2422 million respectively.
Despite the fund outflows, Ethereum‘s (CRYPTO: ETH) price rose 2.4% to $2,640, suggesting that retail sentiment remains bullish.
Why It Matters: Meanwhile, QCP Capital reported that worries of a sell-off in the market have eased after the July FOMC minutes revealed some policymakers were open to rate cuts, signaling a more dovish stance balancing inflation and employment goals.
The dovish tone lifted risk assets like Bitcoin, which saw its rise fueled by strong buying on Coinbase Inc. (NASDAQ:COIN), indicating U.S. onshore demand. In the past, this has been a good signal for short-term trends.
“Attention now turns to Fed Chair Powell's Jackson Hole speech tomorrow for more rate-cut signals,” according to QCP Capital.
