Bitcoin2026-10-01 05:12:04Bitcoin rose more than 42% in Q3 while Ether jumped about 71% as the market turns to Q4Bitcoin and Ether posted a sharp rebound in the third quarter of 2026, according to Blockcast, which cited CoinGlass data and market figures. BTC climbed from roughly $58,500 to the $83,000-$85,000 range during the quarter, putting its gain at about 42% to 43%, its strongest quarterly showing since the first quarter of 2024. Ether outpaced Bitcoin, rising from around $1,570 to about $2,686-$2,687, for a quarterly increase of roughly 71.2%. The report said the recovery followed steep losses in the first half of the year. Bitcoin had declined 22.1% in Q1 and 14.2% in Q2 before returning to positive territory in Q3. Ether had fallen about 29% in Q1 and 25% in Q2, and despite the strong third-quarter rally, it still had not fully recovered its first-half losses by the end of September. Blockcast also pointed to renewed ETF inflows as a major support for the quarter. U.S. spot Bitcoin ETFs saw about $2.4 billion in net inflows in the last full week of September, one of the largest weekly inflow totals since October 2025, while U.S. spot Ether ETFs drew about $1.75 billion in August. As the calendar moves into October, the market is now watching whether historically strong fourth-quarter seasonality can hold up against high Treasury yields, oil prices, and geopolitical risk.90
Ethereum2026-09-28 02:16:15Spot Ether ETFs drew $690 million last week, with BlackRock’s ETHA leading inflowsSpot Ether exchange-traded funds posted net inflows of $690 million over the latest trading week, according to SoSoValue data covering Sept. 21 to Sept. 25 in U.S. Eastern Time. BlackRock’s ETHA led the group with $326 million in weekly net inflows, bringing its cumulative historical net inflows to $13.28 billion. Fidelity’s FETH ranked second, adding $174 million during the same period and lifting its historical total net inflows to $2.42 billion. As of publication, the total net asset value of spot Ether ETFs stood at $17.78 billion. Their net asset ratio, measured as the share of Ether’s total market capitalization represented by ETF assets, reached 5.42%. Historical cumulative net inflows across spot Ether ETFs had climbed to $13.94 billion.270
Bitcoin2026-09-22 02:36:01U.S. spot Bitcoin ETFs climb back above $100 billion in net assetsU.S. spot Bitcoin exchange-traded funds have moved back above the $100 billion mark in total net assets, according to data cited by BlockBeats from Coinglass on Sept. 22. The figure was reported at $103 billion. The move came as Bitcoin continued to rise and spot ETF products recorded inflows. Those two factors pushed the combined net asset value of U.S. spot Bitcoin ETFs back over the threshold after previously falling below it. The update was limited to the latest asset figure and the drivers cited in the data snapshot. No additional breakdown by issuer or fund was provided in the source material.350
XRP2026-09-06 17:58:01US XRP ETFs Hold Over 1.1 Billion XRP, Goldman Sachs Tops Institutional HoldingsSeven spot XRP ETFs in the U.S. now hold a combined 1.11 billion XRP, valued at roughly $1.6 billion and representing 1.1% of total supply. Goldman Sachs tops institutional holders with an $87 million position, while Bitwise leads ETF-level holdings with 362 million XRP. Cumulative inflows have reached $1.79 billion since the ETFs launched in November 2025, including $170 million over 11 straight trading days in late August. Separately, Evernorth plans a retail XRP treasury entity listing on Nasdaq as XRPN, with Ripple, SBI, Pantera, and Kraken among participants.1090
Bitcoin ETF2026-09-05 08:03:06US spot Bitcoin ETFs pull in $3.8 billion over three weeks, strongest run of 2026US-listed spot Bitcoin exchange-traded funds posted their strongest three-week stretch of 2026, taking in $3.8 billion in net inflows over that period, according to SoSoValue. In the latest week alone, the funds added $986.9 million, with Friday still showing positive net inflows of $174.6 million even as Bitcoin briefly slipped below $79,000. Total net assets across the products stood at $101.3 billion on Friday after briefly reaching $103.3 billion a day earlier, while cumulative net inflows rose to $55.6 billion. The rebound contrasts with heavy outflows seen earlier in 2026, although year-to-date net flows remain roughly $1 billion in the red. Friday’s activity was led by BlackRock’s iShares Bitcoin Trust, which brought in $117.4 million, and Fidelity’s Wise Origin Bitcoin Fund, which added $57.2 million. No other US spot Bitcoin ETF recorded net flows that day. Over the same period, inflows into US spot Ether and XRP ETFs weakened sharply from the previous week, even though both categories remain positive on a year-to-date basis.930
Bitcoin2026-09-04 07:37:13US Bitcoin ETFs pull in $730.9 million as BTC retakes $80,000, with $83,000 still in focusUS-listed spot Bitcoin exchange-traded funds posted $730.9 million in net inflows on Thursday, the strongest daily intake since Jan. 14, as Bitcoin climbed back above $80,000. The move followed $101.2 million in inflows a day earlier and came after BTC traded in a roughly $76,000 to $81,000 band this week, according to CoinGecko. BlackRock’s iShares Bitcoin Trust led the pack with $454 million, or about 62% of the day’s total, while ARK 21Shares Bitcoin ETF and Fidelity’s Wise Origin Bitcoin Fund also saw sizable inflows. VanEck’s HODL and WisdomTree’s BTCW were the only funds to post outflows. Even with the sharp pickup in ETF demand, onchain analytics firm CryptoQuant said the latest rally still lacks strong fresh spot buying. In a report shared with Cointelegraph, the firm said the move has been driven largely by short covering rather than new long positioning. It also pointed to elevated profit-taking, noting that Bitcoin holders realized 23,000 BTC in net profits on Aug. 21, the highest daily figure this year, and roughly 110,000 BTC since Aug. 19. CryptoQuant placed Bitcoin’s next major technical test near its 365-day moving average at about $82,300 and said a decisive close above $83,000 would confirm a new bull market, while rejection there could send BTC back toward its 200-day moving average near $69,000.1000
Bitcoin2026-09-02 08:29:11Bitcoin's 25% August Rally: The Strongest August Since 2017, but $81,000 Is the Real BattlefieldBitcoin rallied about 25% in August, its strongest August since 2017, driven by the Treasury's expanded buyback, Washington's crypto policy push, and a record $1.4 billion short squeeze. The $81,000-$82,000 zone is the key resistance separating a trend reversal from a bear market rally. September's focus: the $76,000-$78,000 support, continued ETF inflows, and the long-end yield. Analysts view any pullback as a potential late-cycle buying opportunity.1450
Bitcoin2026-09-01 16:06:54Bitcoin-Gold 90-Day Correlation Hits Record High as 30-Day Reading Reaches 0.8Bitcoin’s correlation with gold has climbed to its highest level on record, according to the latest data cited from The Block Data & Insights, with the 90-day Pearson correlation setting a new all-time high and the 30-day reading rising to 0.8, its highest level this year. The report said the move reflects increasingly synchronized price action between BTC and gold. The article ties that pattern to what it describes as a “debasement trade,” arguing that investors are rotating into hard assets as concerns build around the depreciation of fiat currencies and government-backed assets. It also points to fund flows, noting that both gold ETFs and spot Bitcoin ETFs rank among the top 10 inflow products, while Bitcoin ETFs brought in nearly $1 billion last week and $1.89 billion year to date. BlackRock’s IBIT alone has attracted $1.2 billion so far this year. The report also draws historical parallels. Similar spikes in Bitcoin-gold correlation appeared in Q4 2020 and Q4 2022, followed by BTC gains of 172% and nearly 350%, respectively. Separately, the Crypto Fear & Greed Index has returned to 68, classified as “Greed,” though the article says current volatility still remains below levels typically seen in full-blown market bubbles.810
