U.S. spot Bitcoin exchange-traded funds attracted $66.2 million in net inflows on Tuesday, September 29, extending their positive run to nine consecutive trading sessions and taking the streak’s total to about $3.1 billion. Cointelegraph reported that the continued Bitcoin inflows contrasted with a turn into redemptions for Ether funds. FinanceFeeds, citing finalized Farside Investors data, also put Tuesday’s Bitcoin total at $66.2 million and said Ether ETFs recorded a $2.8 million net outflow.
The daily Bitcoin intake more than doubled from Monday’s $31 million, although it remained far below the heavier demand recorded earlier in the streak. FinanceFeeds said the funds received $999 million on September 21 and $714.7 million on September 22, followed by $346.9 million on Wednesday, $190.7 million on Thursday and $134.5 million on Friday. The latest two sessions kept the aggregate run positive, but the smaller totals showed that the pace of new money had slowed sharply after last week’s surge.
BlackRock’s iShares Bitcoin Trust led Tuesday’s flows with $51.1 million, while the ARK 21Shares Bitcoin ETF added $33.2 million. Those subscriptions were partly offset by an $18.1 million withdrawal from Bitwise’s Bitcoin ETF. FinanceFeeds said Fidelity’s fund, Grayscale’s two Bitcoin products, Morgan Stanley’s fund and the other tracked products recorded no net movement. The distribution left the category dependent on a small number of issuers for its positive daily result.
Ether funds moved in the opposite direction after a six-session inflow run. BlackRock’s ETHA posted an $8.9 million outflow and Fidelity’s FETH lost $6.7 million, according to FinanceFeeds. A $12.8 million inflow into Grayscale’s Ethereum Mini Trust absorbed most of those redemptions, leaving the group with a net withdrawal of $2.8 million. That reversed Monday’s $17.1 million Ether inflow and ended the category’s run of positive aggregate flows stretching back through September 18.
The broader U.S. spot crypto ETF complex still finished Tuesday in positive territory. FinanceFeeds calculated combined net inflows of $68.8 million across Bitcoin, Ether and Solana products, up from $55.8 million on Monday. Solana ETFs contributed $5.4 million, down from $7.7 million in the previous session. Bitcoin therefore supplied nearly all of the net fresh capital, even as the asset traded around $83,000 to $84,000 on September 29 while elevated Treasury yields continued to weigh on risk assets.
What it means for traders: the nine-session Bitcoin ETF streak shows that net demand through regulated U.S. products remained positive despite slower daily inflows and pressure from bond yields. For BTC/USD, the next question is whether flows continue after the earlier large sessions or fade as the macro backdrop stays restrictive. For ETH/USD, attention shifts to whether Tuesday’s $2.8 million outflow becomes a one-day reversal or the start of a broader change after six positive sessions. The next daily ETF disclosures, issuer-level concentration and movements in U.S. Treasury yields will provide the clearest evidence on whether the divergence between Bitcoin and Ether demand persists.
