BlackRock drives $412M Bitcoin ETF inflows amid Israel-Iran conflict

US spot Bitcoin exchange‑traded funds (ETFs) recorded $412.2 million in net inflows on Monday, extending their streak to six days and pushing total cumulative inflows to $46.04 billion.

The six-day run of inflows began on June 9 and has now absorbed over $1.8 billion in capital, according to data from SoSoValue. The run has continued despite escalating geopolitical tensions, including renewed conflict between Iran and Israel.

Daily contributions included $386.27 million on June 9, followed by a $431.12 million surge on June 10. Despite a slight dip mid-week, inflows rebounded sharply with $322.60 million on Friday and the most recent $412.2 million on Monday.

Total net assets across all US Bitcoin ETFs have reached $132.5 billion, representing 6.13% of Bitcoin’s total market cap. Trading volume remained strong as well, with $3.12 billion in value exchanged on Monday alone.

BlackRock’s IBIT leads the charge

BlackRock’s iShares Bitcoin Trust (IBIT) led the charge, which recorded a $266.60 million net inflow on Monday and has now accumulated $50.03 billion.

Fidelity’s FBTC followed with $82.96 million, while Grayscale’s GBTC lagged behind with just $12.84 million and still shows a net outflow of $23.23 billion since inception.

“Despite rising tensions between Israel and Iran, institutions are looking past short-term volatility and focusing on long-term positioning,” Vincent Liu, chief investment officer of the Taiwan-based company Kronos Research, told Cointelegraph, adding:

“Steady Bitcoin ETF inflows reflect growing trust in BTC’s resilience, accessibility, and role as a hedge in a shifting macro environment.”

Bitcoin dips, but market structure holds

The unexpected Israeli strike on Iran on Friday triggered a market sell-off, pulling Bitcoin down over 7% and ending the week in negative territory.

Under the hood, metrics showed signs of capitulation, Bitfinex analysts said in a Monday report. They noted that Net Taker Volume hit a multi-week low at $197 million, indicating aggressive selling.

“This selling, however, combined with a spike in liquidations, resembles past capitulation-style setups that often mark local bottoms,” the analysts said.

They added that if Bitcoin manages to hold the $102,000–$103,000 zone, it may suggest that selling pressure is being absorbed and that the market could be primed for recovery.

  • Apple Plunges Nearly 10%, Q4 Revenue Guidance Misses Expectations

    On July 31, Apple (AAPL.US) plunged nearly 10% to $300.33, marking its biggest drop since April 2025. In terms of fundamentals, Apple's third-fiscal-quarter revenue rose approximately 16% year-over-year to $109.42 billion, slightly above analyst expectations. Among the details, product revenue came in at $78.68 billion, beating the expected $77.25 billion. However, services revenue—a key driver of its valuation re-rating in recent years—totaled $30.74 billion, missing the consensus estimate of $31.36 billion. Additionally, Greater China revenue reached $18.82 billion, with year-over-year growth slowing to 22%, also below analysts' forecast of $19.58 billion.

  • Three Fed Officials Back Rate Hike, Hawkish Pressure Builds

    On July 31, three Federal Reserve policymakers said that dissenting votes in favor of a rate hike this week stemmed from stubborn inflationary pressures, highlighting rising internal pressure on Fed Chair Warsh to act. In statements released Friday morning, Hammack and Kashkari said they worry that although the current round of price increases may stem from short-term factors such as President Trump's tariff policies and the Iran war, the inflation situation already warrants Fed action. Logan also joined in, saying that even if inflation cools, if the Fed does not raise rates, inflation is unlikely to fully fall back to the Fed's 2% target; without any policy constraints, inflation could continue to run above target until an unexpected shock occurs. Kashkari said that if inflation remains persistently stubborn, he might support a series of rate hikes, not just a single increase, to prevent inflation from becoming further entrenched. He said: "A series of small policy adjustments may be preferable to waiting for developments to unfold and ultimately having to take more forceful action." Hammack said that if the Fed does not tighten policy, price increases could continue to accelerate. She said: "Inflation has been stubbornly above 2% for more than five years, and I have no confidence that it will return to our target on its own." (Jin Shi)
