Bitcoin ETF August inflows reportedly reached $951 million after $189 million day

Bitcoin ETF August inflows reportedly reached about $951 million after US-listed spot Bitcoin funds posted $189.3 million in net inflows on Aug. 19. For investors watching institutional access to Bitcoin, the daily figures marked a return to net inflows after a brief stretch of withdrawals, according to Cointelegraph and CoinMarketCap, both citing SoSoValue data.

The reported $189.3 million followed $297.6 million on the prior trading day. Together, the two sessions accounted for $487 million, slightly more than half of the reported August total.

The underlying historical figures were not directly verifiable from the supplied live SoSoValue page, which displays later data rather than an Aug. 19 archive. The figures should therefore be read as reported market-flow data attributed to SoSoValue, rather than independently confirmed records.

Which Bitcoin ETFs led the reported August inflows?

BlackRock's iShares Bitcoin Trust led the Aug. 19 activity with a reported $143.6 million in net inflows. Fidelity's Wise Origin Bitcoin Fund added a reported $23.9 million, according to Cointelegraph and CoinMarketCap.

Those two funds represented $167.5 million of the $189.3 million daily total. Based on the reported totals, the other funds combined accounted for a net roughly $21.8 million.

The new inflows followed three consecutive sessions of reported net outflows from Aug. 12 through Aug. 14, totaling about $250 million. That sequence provides the immediate context for the two-day reversal, though the reported flows alone do not establish a broader change in investor demand.

What were the larger reported Bitcoin ETF totals?

Cointelegraph and CoinMarketCap reported cumulative net inflows of approximately $52.28 billion for US spot Bitcoin ETFs and total net assets of roughly $79.3 billion as of the reporting period. Those broader figures were also attributed to SoSoValue.

Spot Ether ETFs were reported separately. They recorded $71.5 million in daily net inflows on Aug. 19, bringing their August net inflows to about $345 million, the outlets said.

Bitcoin and Ether price details are omitted here because the supplied reports gave conflicting snapshots for Bitcoin on the same date. The flow data does not, on its own, show whether ETF activity caused any move in either cryptocurrency's price.
