BTC ETF Inflows Continue, But Market Momentum Weakens

  • BTC ETF inflow streak extends, but Ethereum ETF continues to struggle.
  • Trump’s speech disappoints, lacking major policy announcements.
  • Market momentum fades, with digital assets retreating.

The divergence in ETF netflows persists. Bitcoin ETFs recorded another day of inflows ($166M), while Ethereum saw minor outflows (-$12M). This highlights a growing institutional risk appetite for BTC, while ETH’s recovery remains sluggish as investors wait for stronger catalysts.

US President Donald Trump’s much-anticipated Digital Asset Summit speech left investors underwhelmed. Market participants were hoping for a tax-free capital gains policy on crypto or a Bitcoin National Reserve accumulation plan. Instead, Trump reiterated his general support for the crypto industry and emphasized how stablecoins could help keep the U.S. dollar dominant in global trade. While supportive in the long run, the lack of immediate policy commitments is a short-term bearish signal.

Following these disappointments, the market lost its recent positive momentum. Bitcoin declined 1.7%, Ethereum dropped 2%, and Solana fell 4%. While volatility and trading volume remain elevated—suggesting ongoing investor interest—the broader recovery is showing signs of weakness, increasing the likelihood of a retest of key support levels.

Outlook and Positioning

With digital assets struggling to sustain a breakout, the accumulation phase continues at low price levels, particularly for altcoins. The next steps in U.S. digital asset policy are becoming increasingly crucial for market performance, and we expect limited momentum until a major catalyst emerges.

Despite near-term weakness, we recommend staying heavily invested, as the market could react swiftly to the next positive development, and support levels are not far from current prices. We maintain our current portfolio weighting:

  • Overweight Solana (SOL) – Strong upside potential at current levels.
  • Neutral Bitcoin (BTC) and Ethereum (ETH) – Holding key support but lacking immediate momentum.
