VanEck Bitcoin Trust Shs of Benef Interest’s ETF, HODL, recorded fresh net inflows of $2,961,600 on February 02, 2026, a move that nudged but did not transform its asset base. The latest flow represents roughly 0.22% of the fund’s assets under management, which now stand at $1,325,612,160, suggesting investors are adding exposure selectively rather than in a rush of new capital.
The related asset, BTC-USD, is currently trading around $78,342.01, after a sharp three-month slide of about 29.0% that has cooled what was once a red-hot rally. Despite Monday’s incremental inflows into HODL, the short-term picture for Bitcoin remains cautious: its 1-day technical signal is flashing Sell, underscoring ongoing downside pressure and jittery sentiment among traders.
The combination of modest ETF inflows and a weak near-term technical backdrop paints a nuanced picture: longer-horizon investors appear willing to accumulate Bitcoin-linked exposure on dips, while shorter-term traders are still guided by bearish signals and volatility concerns. With flows amounting to only a sliver of HODL’s overall AUM, the latest move looks more like gradual positioning than a conviction call that the bottom is in for Bitcoin.
