The Fidelity Wise Origin Bitcoin Fund, ticker FBTC, closed out the year with a substantial inflow of $78,585,964 on December 31, 2025, even as its underlying asset continues to trade well below recent highs. The latest injection represents roughly 0.44% of the fund’s $17.81 billion in assets under management (AUM), signaling that institutional and retail allocators are still adding exposure despite heightened volatility in the crypto market.
The related asset, BTC-USD, is currently trading at $89,769.99, down about 26.17% over the past three months. Technically, the market appears to be in a wait-and-see mode, with a 1-day signal of Hold, suggesting neither clear upward momentum nor a decisive bearish breakdown in the immediate term.
FBTC’s latest flows underscore a recurring theme in the Bitcoin ETF space: dips in the spot market are increasingly seen as allocation opportunities rather than exit triggers. The fact that nearly half a percent of AUM arrived in a single day, while Bitcoin is in a three-month drawdown, hints at longer-horizon positioning, possibly from investors using regulated ETFs to average into crypto exposure without directly holding the token.
