U.S.-listed spot Bitcoin and Ethereum exchange-traded funds remained in positive territory on Aug. 6, extending multi-day inflow streaks despite continued volatility across digital-asset markets. SoSoValue recorded $128.69 million in net Bitcoin ETF inflows and $92.15 million for Ethereum products. The figures show investors continuing to allocate capital through regulated fund structures even as crypto prices remain well below their previous peaks.
Bitcoin funds completed their fourth consecutive positive session, following inflows on Aug. 3, 4 and 5. Farside Investors calculates the Aug. 6 total slightly differently at $137.6 million, after recording $170.1 million, $211.5 million and $244.4 million over the preceding three sessions. Despite the difference between data providers, both datasets point to a sustained reversal from the $265.4 million outflow recorded on July 31.
BlackRock Leads Another Positive Bitcoin and Ethereum Session
Farside’s breakdown shows BlackRock’s IBIT accounting for $128.3 million of Bitcoin inflows on Aug. 6. Fidelity’s FBTC added $11.2 million, while Morgan Stanley’s MSBT and the two Grayscale products also posted positive flows. VanEck’s HODL recorded a $32.8 million outflow. The session was positive overall even though demand was uneven across individual issuers, illustrating why aggregate ETF flows can mask substantial movement between competing products.
Ethereum funds produced a clearer result across the available trackers. Farside recorded $92.1 million of net inflows, effectively matching SoSoValue’s $92.15 million figure. BlackRock’s ETHA led with $81.1 million, while ETHB, FETH and Grayscale products contributed smaller amounts. Ethereum has now recorded three consecutive positive sessions after an $11.9 million outflow on Aug. 3.
The recovery follows a mixed end to July. Ethereum funds registered both positive and negative sessions during the final two weeks of the month, while Bitcoin ETFs suffered a $225.1 million outflow on July 23 and another $265.4 million withdrawal on July 31. The latest streak therefore signals renewed demand, but not a return to uninterrupted institutional buying.
Altcoin ETF Flows Remain More Uneven
Other crypto investment products showed a less uniform picture. SoSoValue data indicated approximately $3.45 million of net inflows into XRP spot ETFs, while Solana products lost about $859,450. Farside separately recorded roughly $0.9 million of Solana ETF outflows for Aug. 6. The divergence suggests capital is not moving equally across every regulated crypto exposure, even when Bitcoin and Ethereum funds are attracting fresh money.
ETF inflows can provide evidence of investor demand, but they do not establish the motivation or holding period behind each allocation. Creations and redemptions can reflect portfolio rebalancing, tactical positioning and other institutional strategies in addition to longer-term conviction. Several consecutive inflow sessions are therefore a constructive liquidity signal rather than proof of a durable market trend.
Bitcoin and Ethereum funds have re-established positive momentum after the uneven flows seen in late July. The next test is whether allocations remain positive through further market volatility, particularly if crypto prices struggle to convert stronger ETF demand into sustained upside.
