The Grayscale Bitcoin Mini Trust (BTC) saw fresh capital inflows of $6.74 million on January 16, 2026, even as bitcoin prices remain under pressure. The latest flow represents roughly 0.15% of the fund’s $4.63 billion in assets under management (AUM), a modest but notable allocation shift that suggests ongoing dip-buying interest among institutional and sophisticated retail investors.
With AUM holding near $4.63 billion, the new inflows are not yet a game-changer for the trust’s overall size, but they do highlight resilience in sentiment after a challenging quarter for the underlying asset. The move indicates that some investors are looking past short-term volatility and are positioning for a potential medium- to long-term recovery in bitcoin.
The related asset, BTC-USD, is currently trading around $89,045.31, down approximately 17.38% over the past three months. Despite the fresh ETF inflows, the near-term technical backdrop remains bearish, with a 1-day signal flashing Strong Sell. That divergence—weak price action alongside positive ETF flows—underscores a growing split between technical traders, who see further downside risk, and allocators who appear more focused on long-term exposure.
