The Fidelity Wise Origin Bitcoin Fund, ticker FBTC, drew a fresh $351.36 million in inflows on January 14, 2026, even as its underlying asset continues to trade well below recent highs. The latest single-day haul lifts the fund’s assets under management to $19.08 billion, with the new capital representing roughly 1.84% of FBTC’s total AUM—a sizeable vote of confidence amid a choppy crypto backdrop.
The related asset, BTC-USD, is currently trading at $97,018.01, down about 13.45% over the past three months. Despite the pullback, short‑term indicators are offering little directional conviction: the 1‑day technical signal stands at Hold. That combination—medium‑term weakness with neutral near‑term momentum—suggests investors in FBTC may be positioning for a longer‑horizon rebound rather than chasing a momentum rally.
With flows into FBTC accelerating while bitcoin prices remain under pressure, the fund’s latest activity underscores a familiar pattern in digital assets: institutional and retail allocators treating pullbacks as accumulation phases rather than exit signals. If BTC stabilizes or turns higher, this week’s inflows could prove well‑timed; if volatility persists, it will test the conviction behind this surge of new capital.
