Bitcoin ETF Inflows Cross $1 Billion — Bullish Signal for BTC Price?

• Bitcoin spot ETFs have pulled in over $1 billion in inflows just this week alone, showing that institutional investors are still piling in.
• Even with rising geopolitical tensions adding some extra turbulence, Bitcoin’s funding rates are holding steady in positive territory.

This week has been tense. Iran launched a missile and drone attack on Israel, escalating an already volatile situation. In the aftermath, Iran also threatened to shut down the Strait of Hormuz, a critical global oil route, which sent oil prices soaring.

The U.S. didn’t stay silent either, with President Trump and other officials signaling possible military involvement. Announcing attacks during the weekend. These developments have shaken global markets and spilled over into the cryptocurrency sector.

Yet despite all this uncertainty, on June 13 alone, spot Bitcoin (BTC) Exchange Traded Funds (ETFs) pulled in a healthy $85 million in inflows, marking four straight days of positive capital movement. Even with Bitcoin’s price trading sideways, ETF inflows for the week have already topped $1 billion in just three sessions, showing that big players are still betting on BTC’s long-term strength.

Looking at the numbers more closely: total volume for Bitcoin ETFs hit $3.07 billion, representing the full value of ETF shares traded over the period. The total market cap of all Bitcoin ETFs now sits at $129.27 billion, calculated by multiplying the number of shares by their current prices. As for assets under management (AUM), they’ve reached $131.26 billion. IBIT is trading at $58.97 with 1.20 billion shares outstanding, while FBTC is priced at $90.63 and has 226.90 million shares in circulation.

Mixed Signals in the Derivatives Market

On the derivatives side, total value traded dropped by 16.93%, falling to $60.47 billion. However, open interest, the number of unsettled contracts, rose by 3.39% to $72.03 billion. The total number of outstanding Bitcoin options contracts, on the other hand, dropped 5.65% and now sits at $44.22 billion.

Meanwhile, Bitcoin’s price has remained in a tight consolidation range between $103,000 and $1056000, as traders engage in profit-taking amid broader geopolitical uncertainty. Still, funding rates have stayed positive, and there’s continued demand for call options, suggesting many in the market expect an upside move. For those investors, price dips are seen as entry points, not warning signs.

That said, if demand dries up and the bearish pressure builds, it’s possible that Bitcoin could dip further from its current price of $102,340, potentially testing the $103,000 support level.

BTC Market Outlook

Michael Saylor recently drew a comparison between acquiring Bitcoin and the U.S. purchase of Alaska. As CNF reported, he suggested that the economic upside could reach a staggering $50 to $80 trillion in the long term. He even laid out a 12-month roadmap for how the United States could position itself as a global leader in Bitcoin adoption.

As part of his mission, Saylor held meetings with top finance officials in Pakistan to discuss the idea of adopting a Bitcoin treasury strategy as a way to strengthen their national economy. While Saylor pushes for international Bitcoin integration, the U.S. is taking a slightly different approach for now, placing its focus on regulating stablecoins with the GENIUS ACT.

Meanwhile, Trump Media & Technology Group (TMTG), the parent company of Truth Social, officially filed two cryptocurrency ETF products: one solely focused on Bitcoin, and another that blends Bitcoin and Ethereum (ETH). CNF has reported that these filings were submitted through both an S-1 form to the SEC and a 19b-4 document to NYSE Arca, signaling a serious move toward a regulated crypto offering. The proposed ETF will allocate 75% of its assets to Bitcoin and 25% to Ethereum, with Crypto.com selected as the official liquidity provider.
