U.S. Bitcoin ETFs attract $865M in a week, signaling strong institutional demand rebound.
U.S. spot Bitcoin ETFs saw a net inflow of approximately $865.3 million from August 3 to 7, marking a significant rebound in institutional demand after months of outflows. Around 11,792 BTC, valued at about $754 million, moved into ETF-linked wallets, the second-largest weekly increase of 2026. Meanwhile, Bitcoin wallet creation hit a one-year high with 2.27 million new wallets, partly driven by defensive transfers following a major Coldcard security breach that led users to migrate funds to new wallets. This surge in inflows and wallet activity highlights renewed confidence and increased network activity despite many institutional holders still facing unrealized losses.
