HANetf2026-09-29 19:08:47HANetf launches euro-hedged Bitcoin fund in Europe, calling it a first of its kindHANetf, an ETF provider with $9.2 billion under management, has launched the Arrow Bitcoin EUR Hedged ETF in Europe. The product is designed to give investors exposure to Bitcoin while reducing the effect of euro-dollar currency swings, an extra layer of risk that can affect returns because Bitcoin is priced in U.S. dollars. HANetf described the exchange-traded commodity as the world’s first euro-hedged Bitcoin product of its kind. In a statement, co-founder and co-CEO Hector McNeil said the launch brings the established logic of euro-hedged ETFs into the crypto market. He said investors have long recognized that currency movements can materially influence returns across asset classes, citing gold as an example, and argued that European investors in Bitcoin products often end up taking a view on both Bitcoin and the dollar at the same time. HSBC will provide the currency hedge for the fund. The structure typically relies on forward contracts that lock in an exchange rate for a future date, with positions usually rolled each month. The report also pointed to strong demand for spot Bitcoin funds in the United States since SEC approval in 2024. According to Coinglass, those U.S. products now hold a combined $111.1 billion in assets.20
Bitcoin ETF2026-09-30 10:12:28Bitcoin ETFs log a ninth straight day of inflows as Ether and Zcash funds slip into outflowsUS spot Bitcoin exchange-traded funds added another $66.2 million on Tuesday, extending their net inflow run to nine trading days and lifting cumulative inflows during that stretch to about $3.1 billion, according to SoSoValue. Year-to-date net inflows climbed to roughly $1 billion. The tone was different in other crypto fund segments. Spot Ether ETFs posted about $3 million in net outflows on Tuesday, ending a seven-session inflow streak. Over those seven sessions, the funds had pulled in more than $851 million, taking cumulative net inflows to about $14 billion. Earlier in the week, Zcash ETFs also reversed course, recording $8 million in net outflows on Monday after six straight days of inflows. At publication, Bitcoin changed hands at about $83,567, down 0.4% over the previous 24 hours, based on CoinGecko data. Alternative.me’s Crypto Fear & Greed Index also eased to 71 from 73 a day earlier, though it remained in the “Greed” zone. Kyle Rodda, senior financial market analyst at Capital.com, said rising crude prices were limiting non-yielding assets and had caused Bitcoin’s advance to pause somewhat.10
Coinbase2026-09-30 06:55:40Coinbase Clearing License Fails to Lift Perpetuals as Market Backs Chains InsteadCoinMarketCap research head Alice Liu argued in a market note published by Foresight that this week’s most widely circulated institutional headlines did not translate into strength for trading venues or perpetuals. The note pointed to Coinbase receiving permission to self-clear derivatives, Cboe studying tokenized options, and Goldman Sachs placing a fund worth about $100 billion on Avalanche. Yet pricing moved in the opposite direction: the perpetuals and derivatives narrative category posted a 7-day FDV decline of 9.61%, the weakest among 26 categories, while DEXs fell 4.64%. Instead, infrastructure and chain-linked assets outperformed. Avalanche rose 8.95% in 24 hours with volume up 81%, while NEAR gained 4.20% on the day and 12.46% over seven days. Aave stood out inside DeFi lending, rising 12.80% in 24 hours against a category average gain of 1.89%, with volume surging 130.7% even as volume for the broader lending group fell. The note also argued that support behind the broader rally has weakened on three fronts at once: spot Bitcoin ETF inflows remain positive but are shrinking sharply in size, the Fear & Greed Index has fallen 10 points in a week, and market breadth across narrative categories has narrowed from 24 advancing groups to 17. Liu’s conclusion was that the market has already priced Coinbase’s license, but not in the way headline readers might have expected.200
Bitcoin ETF2026-09-29 18:18:33U.S. Bitcoin ETFs Pull In $2.95 Billion Over 30 Days, Stretch Inflow Streak to Eight SessionsU.S. spot Bitcoin exchange-traded funds added $2.95 billion over the past 30 days, according to SoSoValue, extending their current inflow streak to eight straight trading days on Monday. The latest session was modest by recent standards, with net inflows of $31.07 million, the weakest day in the run. BlackRock’s IBIT led with $54.84 million in fresh money, while Grayscale’s GBTC posted $23.19 million in outflows and Fidelity’s FBTC lost $10.90 million. The streak began after a sharp setback earlier in September. On Sept. 15, Bitcoin ETFs saw $450.4 million in net outflows, their largest one-day withdrawal since June 24, the same day the U.S. Senate voted 49-50 against advancing the Clarity Act, short of the 60 votes required. Ethereum ETFs lost another $142.3 million that day. Flows then rebounded quickly, with nearly $1 billion entering Bitcoin ETFs on Sept. 21 and another $715 million on Sept. 22. The recovery also pushed Bitcoin back above the average ETF holder cost basis of $81,722, putting the typical fund investor back in profit for the first time since January. Beyond Bitcoin, Ethereum ETFs brought in $982.5 million over 30 days, while Solana funds added $278.2 million and XRP funds took in $127.05 million.180
Bitcoin2026-09-29 17:00:48Bitcoin options traders pile into bullish bets above $90,000Bitcoin was trading at about $83,238 as of Sept. 30, based on HTX market data, but activity in the options market is leaning higher. Traders are increasingly building positions that wager on a move above $90,000, with $95,000 and $100,000 also standing out as popular strike prices. The positioning points to continued upside demand even as near-term sentiment around Bitcoin has softened. Institutional flows have also improved. Bitcoin exchange-traded funds have now posted eight straight days of inflows, including $31 million recorded yesterday. According to BlockBeats, that combination of bullish options activity and steady ETF demand suggests buyers are still active at higher price levels, despite weaker short-term sentiment in the spot market.150
Bitcoin ETF2026-09-29 14:17:23US spot Bitcoin ETFs post net inflow of 511 BTC, while spot Ether ETFs add 5,648 ETHLookonchain data tracked by Odaily showed fresh inflows into both US spot Bitcoin and spot Ether exchange-traded funds. US spot Bitcoin ETFs recorded a net inflow of 511 BTC for the day, worth about $42.99 million. Over the past seven days, cumulative net inflows reached 15,196 BTC, or roughly $1.28 billion. Spot Ether ETFs, meanwhile, posted a net inflow of 5,648 ETH yesterday, valued at about $15.37 million. Their seven-day cumulative net inflow stood at 168,733 ETH, worth about $459 million. The figures point to continued capital entering both Bitcoin- and Ether-linked ETF products in the US market, based on Lookonchain’s monitoring.150
Bitcoin ETF2026-09-29 12:40:12CoinShares says Bitcoin ETF inflows still do not clearly show institutional demandCoinShares says the latest wave of money moving into Bitcoin exchange-traded funds does not offer a clean read on institutional demand. James Butterfill, the firm’s head of research, told Cointelegraph that US crypto investment products drew about $4.1 billion in September, with BlackRock’s iShares Bitcoin Trust ETF, or IBIT, taking more than 53% of that total. He said that may hint at institutional participation, but ETF inflows can also reflect basis trades rather than outright bullish bets on Bitcoin. Butterfill said many institutions use IBIT in a Bitcoin basis trade, a strategy that involves buying spot Bitcoin ETF shares while shorting Bitcoin futures to capture the spread as spot and futures prices converge. He said the trade was offering an attractive 6% yield at the time. CoinShares later shared updated figures showing September inflows into US crypto investment products had risen to about $4.44 billion, versus $4.53 billion globally. Bitcoin products led with $2.84 billion, followed by Ether at roughly $946 million and Zcash at $284 million. Butterfill also pointed to a rotation inside digital assets, saying investors are paying more attention to companies that generate revenue from crypto adoption. He cited earlier CoinShares data showing more than $100 million had flowed into blockchain equities over the previous month.150
Bitcoin ETF2026-09-29 10:15:19US spot crypto ETF inflows cool sharply, but Bitcoin, Ether, Solana and XRP streaks stay intactUS spot crypto exchange-traded funds saw inflows slow sharply on Monday after a much stronger finish to the previous week, though the main product categories all remained in positive territory. Data from SoSoValue showed spot Bitcoin, Ether, Solana and XRP ETFs brought in a combined $64.8 million on Monday, down about 80% from the roughly $330.8 million recorded on Friday. Bitcoin funds led the day with $31.07 million, followed by Ether at $17.1 million, Solana at $12.7 million and XRP at $3.96 million. The slowdown came after a week in which the same four ETF groups pulled in more than $3.3 billion combined. Bitcoin ETFs accounted for $2.39 billion of that total, while Ether products added $690 million, Solana funds took in $188 million and XRP ETFs drew $75.6 million. Zcash ETFs also added about $35 million last week before posting an $8.1 million outflow on Monday. Even with the weaker daily print, inflow streaks continued across the board. Bitcoin ETFs extended their run to eight straight trading sessions, Ether and Solana each reached seven, and XRP logged a fifth consecutive positive session.160
