- Bitcoin exchange-traded funds saw a surge of inflows despite the recent market dip
- Trump’s announcement of halting tariffs on Mexican imports led to a quick recovery in Bitcoin and XRP prices
- The altcoin market experienced heavy losses, but XRP and Ethereum showed signs of recovery
Bitcoin exchange-traded funds have continued to collect BTC, despite the most recent market dip.
According to data from LookOnChain, all Bitcoin ETFs saw a surge of inflows of $315.41 million. Blackrock (iShares) let the inflow party with a net positive of $354 million. Currently, the fund holds 582,874 BTC, at an estimated value of $57.87 billion.
Positive Sentiment in Spot Bitcoin ETF Market
The Spot Bitcoin ETF market shows major positive sentiment in 2025. The collective of funds registered inflows of over $300 million for the past 3 days.
Adding to that narrative, the fact that there has only been one negative outflow day since January 15 confirms how stable the market has been.
Today’s inflows come amidst a highly volatile day for Bitcoin. The currency began Monday heavily bullish after fears that the newly imposed Tariffs on Mexico and Canada could re-spark inflationary pressure in the U.S. economy.
Bitcoin’s Recovery
Bitcoin dipped as low as the $92,000 level—only recovering back to the $100,000 after reports that Trump’s 25% import tariffs on Mexico had been halted for 30 days. Currently, BTC trades at $101,286, up 3% over the last 24 hours.
Altcoin Market Performance
The altcoin market suffered even heavier losses throughout the day. At one point during this afternoon, Ethereum and XRP registered over 17% losses in a 24-hour period. XRP saw a relatively good recovery since, down by only 3.72%.
Ethereum’s Fluctuations
Meanwhile, Ethereum lost its $3,000 margin, reaching as low as $2,451 at its lowest point. Ether has since recovered $2,761 — but the altcoin is still down by 7.64% when compared to its value on Sunday.
This inherent volatility serves as a reminder that despite the incredible bull market seen since November, cryptocurrencies are still subject to a rapid shift in investor sentiment. After spending almost 3 months on “Greed” and “Extreme Greed” levels, the Fear & Greed index for digital assets reached “Fear” levels at 39 points — its lowest level since June of 2024.
