The Bitwise Bitcoin ETF Trust’s BITB notched fresh inflows of $2,955,780 on January 9, 2026, a tentative but notable vote of confidence as bitcoin prices remain under pressure. The move nudged the fund’s assets under management to $3.53 billion, with the latest flow representing roughly 0.08% of AUM—small in percentage terms, but directionally important in a market that has recently been dominated by risk reduction.
The related asset, BTC-USD, is currently trading around $90,615.32, having shed about 18.4% over the past three months as investors recalibrate expectations for monetary policy, liquidity, and the pace of institutional adoption. Short-term technicals remain cautious, with the one-day signal flashing Sell, underscoring lingering downside momentum even as some ETF investors begin to cautiously add exposure on weakness.
The combination of modest inflows into BITB and a soft technical backdrop for bitcoin suggests a market in transition: speculative excess has been pared back, but long-term holders and allocators appear willing to average in rather than capitulate.
