The WisdomTree Bitcoin Fund, ticker BTCW, drew a fresh $2,994,720 in net inflows on January 14, 2026, even as its underlying asset continues to struggle. The latest move lifts the fund’s assets under management to $157,386,840, with the single-day flow amounting to roughly 1.9% of AUM—an unusually large swing that signals renewed institutional interest despite recent volatility in the crypto market.
The related asset, BTC-USD, is currently trading at $92,938.01, down about 13.1% over the past three months. Short-term sentiment remains cautious, with the 1-day technical signal flashing Sell. The divergence between ETF inflows and spot price weakness suggests some investors may be using the dip in Bitcoin to build positions via regulated vehicles rather than holding the token directly.
While the negative three-month performance underscores the lingering hangover from Bitcoin’s recent peaks, the latest flow into BTCW shows that appetite for crypto-exposed products remains intact, particularly among investors who prefer exchange-listed structures for custody and compliance reasons. If inflows of this magnitude persist, BTCW could see its role expand as a barometer of institutional sentiment toward Bitcoin in the first quarter.
