Bitcoin Price Climbs Above $97,000 on $1.7B ETF Inflow Surge<\/a><\/p>\n

<\/div>\n

The bitcoin price surged above $97,000 this week, marking its strongest level in more than two months, on a mix of economic news and renewed inflows into U.S. spot Bitcoin exchange-traded funds (ETFs.<\/p>\n

Crypto investors appear to be kicking off 2026 with a familiar playbook: allocating heavily to Bitcoin ETFs.\u00a0<\/p>\n

On Tuesday, the dozen U.S.-listed spot Bitcoin funds recorded<\/a> roughly $760 million in net inflows, the largest single-day total since October. Fidelity\u2019s Wise Origin Bitcoin Fund (FBTC) led the pack, absorbing about $351 million, while Bitwise\u2019s BITB and BlackRock\u2019s iShares Bitcoin Trust (IBIT) also posted strong gains.<\/p>\n

The momentum accelerated on Wednesday. Data from SoSoValue shows<\/a> spot Bitcoin ETFs took in another $843.6 million, extending the positive streak to three consecutive days and bringing total inflows over that period to approximately<\/a> $1.71 billion.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Eight of the 12 funds reported net inflows, with BlackRock\u2019s IBIT alone drawing in $648 million, underscoring its dominance among institutional allocators.<\/p>\n

Bitcoin\u2019s price action reflected that renewed interest<\/a>. After spending much of November and December trading below $92,000, BTC broke decisively higher this week, reclaiming the $94,000\u2013$97,000 range and pushing toward $100,000.\u00a0<\/p>\n

The move triggered roughly $700 million in short liquidations, amplifying volatility and accelerating the rally, according to Bitcoin Magazine Data.<\/p>\n

ETF flows have become a key barometer of institutional sentiment since spot products launched in early 2024. While cumulative inflows reached more than $56 billion by mid-January, flows turned negative in late December amid typical year-end caution.\u00a0<\/p>\n

The sharp reversal this week suggests investors are once again viewing Bitcoin as both a growth asset and a diversification tool. This reflects in a growing bitcoin price.<\/p>\n

Economic conditions affecting the bitcoin price<\/h2>\n

Macro conditions have also played a role. A softer-than-expected U.S. Consumer Price Index (CPI) reading released<\/a> on January 13 eased fears of further aggressive monetary tightening, lifting \u201crisk-on\u201d sentiment. <\/p>\n

At the same time, escalating geopolitical tensions and political uncertainty in the U.S. have boosted interest in alternative stores of value, including the Bitcoin price.<\/p>\n

Still, volatility risks remain. Markets are closely watching a potential<\/a> U.S. Supreme Court ruling on President Donald Trump\u2019s tariffs, which could inject fresh uncertainty into global trade and financial markets.\u00a0<\/p>\n

At the time of writing, Bitcoin price is trading at $97,046, up 2% over the past 24 hours, with roughly $67 billion in daily trading volume.\u00a0<\/p>\n

The asset is sitting about 1% below its seven-day high of $97,705 and 2% above its seven-day low of $95,318. Bitcoin\u2019s circulating supply stands at 19.98 million BTC, giving it a total market capitalization of approximately $1.94 trillion, also up 2% on the day.<\/p>\n
