Spot Bitcoin ETF Fund Flows: IBIT and FBTC Lead the Way
(Source: SoSoValue)
Yesterday’s spot Bitcoin ETF net inflow was significant, with the top two ETFs accounting for nearly 70% of the total daily inflow:
Ranking by Major ETF Net Inflows (Single Day)
BlackRock IBIT: Net inflow of $182 million for the day; historical cumulative net inflow of $63.3B
Fidelity FBTC: Net inflow of $147 million for the day; historical cumulative net inflow of $11.11B
The pattern of funds remaining highly concentrated in the leading ETFs continues, reflecting that institutional investors’ preference for existing spot Bitcoin ETF products is stabilizing.
Spot Ethereum ETFs: Record a Synchronized Net Inflow of $120 Million
Spot Ethereum ETFs showed positive fund flows on the same day, with total net inflow reaching $120 million. BlackRock’s ETHA led with $60.8217 million, followed by Fidelity’s FETH with $40.0562 million. As of the time of writing, the total net asset value of spot Ethereum ETFs was $12.28B, accounting for 4.74% of Ethereum’s total market capitalization, with historical cumulative net inflow of $11.6B. With spot Bitcoin and spot Ethereum ETFs experiencing inflows in tandem, it suggests that institutional capital’s parallel allocation demand for the two major mainstream crypto assets remains steady.
Market Background: QCP Capital Interprets the Continuation of Risk-on Sentiment
In its analysis on April 6, QCP Capital noted that Trump has delayed action against Iran for the fourth time. Market immunity to the repeated pattern of “hardline statements + negotiation signals” is gradually forming. Expectations for pricing in geopolitical conflict escalation have cooled, oil prices have weakened, and stock index futures have remained stable.
Overall market sentiment is tilted toward risk-on. In March, Bitcoin ETFs had already recorded cumulative net inflow of about $1.32 billion. During Asian trading hours, when Bitcoin broke through $69,000 and Ethereum rose above $2,140, roughly $200 million in short liquidations were triggered in a relatively thin liquidity environment. QCP Capital reminded that with U.S. stocks reopening, the durability of this rebound still needs to be further validated.
BlackRock Applies for a Nasdaq 100 ETF to Expand Its ETF Footprint
Against the backdrop of strong capital attraction by crypto ETF products, BlackRock also submitted to the SEC the filing documents for an iShares Nasdaq 100 ETF (trading symbol IQQ), intending to enter a market long led by Invesco—whose QQQ has $374 billion in assets under management, and QQQM has $70 billion. If IQQ is approved, it would become the first Nasdaq 100 index ETF not managed by Invesco, further strengthening BlackRock’s diversified布局 in the global ETF market.

BTC drops 0.45% in 15 minutes: Whale concentrated transfers into exchanges stack up sell pressure while leverage withdrawals amplify the pullback
From 17:00 to 17:15 (UTC) on 2026-04-17, BTC saw a brief drop. The return rate recorded was -0.45%, with the price ranging from 77354.3 to 77916.9 USDT and a swing of 0.72%. During the event, market attention warmed up, volatility intensified, and spot market liquidity changed significantly.
The main driver of this price anomaly was that whale wallets concentrated transfers to exchanges. In a single 15-minute period, the exchange inflow surged to 11,000 BTC, reaching a new high since December 2025. The average amount deposited per transaction was as high as 2.25 BTC, indicating that large holders chose key price levels to concentrate and release their positions, clearly lifting sell pressure. At the same time, BTC futures open interest fell to a 14-month low of $841 million, as leverage funds exited sharply. The spot market’s pull on price fluctuations became the main factor, further magnifying the impact of whale trading.
In addition, although ETF funds had a net inflow with a hedging effect—bringing the April cumulative inflow to $5.651 billion—within this anomaly window they were not able to fully absorb large sell orders. The spot market mainly relied on institutional buying to digest the selling pressure, and overall risk appetite contracted. On-chain data shows that 41% of the BTC supply is in a loss-making range, and some holders who bought at lower prices face take-profit and stop-loss pressure. With multiple factors converging, short-term tension formed among exchange inflows, leverage withdrawal, profit realization, and institutions’ ability to absorb, increasing the magnitude of spot volatility.
Short-term risks are worth watching closely. Users should closely monitor core indicators such as the subsequent exchange inflow volume, the pace of ETF net inflows, and futures open interest. If whale sell orders still have not eased and ETF inflows cannot accelerate in step, the BTC price may remain under sustained pressure. Users should focus on on-chain transfers and changes in major holders’ positions, watch the spot market’s key support ranges and trading structure, obtain more market information in a timely manner, and stay alert to risks brought by sharp volatility.
