United States spot Bitcoin ETFs pulled in $110 million in net inflows on Monday, snapping back after $774 million poured out over the previous two trading sessions. The rebound shows big investors are still willing to buy Bitcoin funds on a dip, but it does not yet erase a rough month for these products.
Key points:
- US spot Bitcoin ETFs took in $110 million on Monday, after $774 million in outflows over the prior two sessions.
- October still sits about $202 million in net outflows, even after the rebound.
- Bitcoin funds beat the rest of the market, as Ethereum, Solana and XRP ETFs all lost money on the same day.
On Monday, the inflow marked a sharp change of direction. SoSoValue data shows the funds had lost $774 million across the two previous trading sessions, so a single day of $110 million in buying only recovered a small part of that exit. Despite the rebound, October remained negative, with about $202 million in net outflows through Monday, which tells traders that institutional demand is recovering slowly rather than roaring back.

The price backdrop stayed cautious. Bitcoin traded near $79,595 at the time of the report, down about 2.6% over the past seven days, while the Crypto Fear & Greed Index slipped to 48 from 50, still in Neutral territory. In other words, the ETF buying arrived while prices were falling and sentiment was cooling, which makes the inflow more interesting, because buyers stepped in rather than chasing a rally.
The second set of numbers adds an important twist. Ethereum ETFs lost about $88.58 million on Monday, Solana funds lost about $8.23 million and XRP funds lost about $3.61 million, leaving combined flows across the four products at just $9.92 million. Money rotated into Bitcoin alone, not into crypto funds broadly. CryptoQuant data points the same way for smaller traders, as retail Bitcoin deposits to Binance nearly doubled to $10.8 billion over 30 days while deposits from large holders fell to $3.8 billion, and analyst Darkfost suggested smaller investors may be using the price rebound as a chance to sell.
What happens next?
Traders should watch whether the inflow repeats. One green day after two heavy red days looks like stabilization, not a new trend, and the $80,000 level remains the line to watch for Bitcoin itself. This week's Federal Reserve decision is the next big catalyst, since rate expectations shape how much risk investors want to take. The risk is clear, as flows reversed by $774 million in just two sessions before this rebound, and October is still in the red, so buying into a single day of inflows can still leave traders caught if the next session turns red again.
