US spot Bitcoin exchange-traded funds continued their inflow streak for a third consecutive session, with gains this week nearly balancing the losses recorded the previous week. On Tuesday, spot Bitcoin ETFs attracted $166.6 million, lifting total inflows for the week to $311.6 million, according to SoSoValue data.

In the prior week, the funds experienced $318 million in net outflows, extending a three-week period of losses that exceeded $3 billion. Despite Bitcoin declining roughly 13% over the past seven days and briefly falling below $68,000 on Tuesday, ETF activity has shown renewed momentum. Earlier in the week, analysts pointed to indications of a possible shift in trend across cryptocurrency exchange-traded products, particularly as the pace of selling appeared to ease.

Institutional rebalancing and diversification

Recent disclosures revealed that Goldman Sachs reduced its exposure to Bitcoin ETFs during the fourth quarter of 2025, according to a Form 13F filing with the US Securities and Exchange Commission. The bank trimmed its position in BlackRock’s iShares Bitcoin Trust ETF (IBIT), cutting holdings by 39% from nearly 70 million shares in the third quarter to 40.6 million shares in the fourth quarter, representing approximately $2 billion.

Goldman Sachs also lowered positions in other Bitcoin-related funds and companies, including Fidelity Wise Origin Bitcoin (FBTC), Bitcoin Depot and Ether ETFs. At the same time, the bank disclosed its first-ever investments in XRP and Solana ETFs, acquiring 6.95 million shares of XRP ETFs valued at $152 million and 8.24 million shares of Solana ETFs worth $104 million.

According to SoSoValue, spot altcoin ETFs also recorded modest inflows, with Ether funds adding about $14 million, while XRP and Solana ETFs saw inflows of $3.3 million and $8.4 million, respectively.

Investor behavior during volatility

Despite recent price pressure, the majority of Bitcoin ETF investors appear to have maintained their positions. Bloomberg senior ETF analyst Eric Balchunas estimated that only around 6% of total assets exited Bitcoin ETFs during the downturn, even as prices declined significantly.

He noted that although BlackRock’s IBIT saw assets fall to roughly $60 billion from a peak near $100 billion, the fund could sustain that level for an extended period while still holding the distinction of being the “all-time-fastest ETF to reach $60 billion.”
