There was a strong inflow into spot Bitcoin and Ethereum ETFs in the US.
We are seeing a clear "buy the dip" trend in February. Following a turbulent start to 2026, institutional interest has returned to US spot ETFs, especially for Bitcoin.
Bitcoin ETFs: Leading the Way
Bitcoin's trend has shifted from heavy selling in early January to a strong recovery.
Bitcoin ETFs saw a massive net inflow of $843.6 million last Wednesday—the strongest single-day performance so far in 2026.
Following low volatility over the weekend, an additional $145 million flowed into these funds last Monday (February 9).
Ethereum ETFs: A Slower Recovery
While Bitcoin is seeing "greed" return to its sentiment index, Ethereum's recovery is a bit more tentative.
Ethereum ETFs have faced a volatile month. For instance, while they saw a small recovery of $14 million on February 3, they were hit with nearly $80 million in outflows the following day.
Historically, and in this current cycle, ETH has slightly underperformed BTC during "dip-buying" phases, as institutional investors tend to flock to the "safer" large-cap asset (Bitcoin) first.
Total net assets for Ethereum ETFs sit around $12.7 billion, down from their mid-January peak due to both outflows and broader price compression.
What's the Reason for the Sudden Exit?
Bitcoin recently climbed towards the $97,000 level, creating FOMO (fear of missing out) among institutional investors.
Analysts suggest that the slowdown in the exit rate indicates we've reached a "turning point" or a local bottom.
Despite the volatility at the beginning of the year, the absence of major sector failures has led many to view the recent price drop as a healthy correction rather than an entry into a bear market.
