Spot bitcoin ETFs in the U.S. recorded $817.5 million in daily net inflows on November 13, following $1.1 billion in inflows the day before. The crypto market saw a broader rally, but Bitcoin dropped 3.4% in the past 24 hours, currently trading at $86,855, suggesting that some profit-taking might be occurring, according to an analyst from BRN.
The daily trading volume for the 12 spot bitcoin ETFs was $5.7 billion on Tuesday, compared to $7.3 billion on Monday and $2.8 billion on Friday. BlackRock’s IBIT led the inflows, drawing $778.3 million into the product, and accumulating $1.93 billion this week. Fidelity’s FBTC also contributed $37.2 million in inflows, and Grayscale’s Mini Bitcoin Trust and VanEck HODL saw over $10 million in inflows.
However, Grayscale’s GBTC, the second-largest spot bitcoin ETF by net assets, saw $17.8 million in outflows, while Ark and 21Shares’ ARKB experienced $5.4 million in net outflows on Tuesday.
These large inflows into bitcoin ETFs came amid a broader crypto market rally, with Bitcoin hitting new highs following President-elect Donald Trump’s victory. But, after briefly breaking above the $90,000 level, Bitcoin fell by 3.4%, trading at $86,855 at the time of writing. Ether also fell by 7.35%, trading at $3,142.

According to BRN analyst Valentin Fournier, “Bitcoin’s rally paused with its first red candle yesterday, after an intraday peak of $90,000. We believe this indicates profit-taking by large investors, potentially leading to a brief correction before prices resume their upward momentum.”
He also mentioned that upcoming events and technical indicators may signal a potential reversal in prices. “Currently, the upside potential appears stronger than the immediate downside risk. However, the upcoming CPI release today could introduce market volatility if the numbers exceed expectations.”
