The conclusion? Broder crypto market sentiments have taken a severe hit over the past month, given Donald Trump’s tariff flip-flopping. As a response, risk assets encountered severe investor uncertainty, with institutions also exercising caution alongside global markets. This cautious approach pushed the U.S. spot BTC exchange-traded products to react negatively before finally glimmering hope in recent days.
Intriguingly, the broader scenario remains bullish across the crypto market at the moment, rationalizing the robust inflows. Bitcoin price climbed nearly 11% this week, closing in at the $94K level. This rising price action appears to have kicked off a positive sentiment for other altcoins and Bitcoin ETF products as well. While ETH, XRP, and SOL prices gained nearly 2%, CoinGape reported that BTC ETF products recorded inflows worth $381 million in just a day recently.
The U.S. spot BTC exchange-traded products hold total net assets worth $109.27 billion, representing 5/80% of the flagship crypto’s market cap. This statistic further underscores the ETPs’ massive influence over the coin’s market.
