The VanEck Bitcoin Trust Shs of Benef Interest, traded under ticker HODL, attracted fresh capital as investors added approximately $6.35 million in new money on January 22, 2026. The latest fund flow, a positive $6,352,300, comes as the ETF’s assets under management reached about $1.41 billion, meaning roughly 0.45% of its total AUM moved into the product in a single day.
While the dollar amount represents a modest slice of the overall fund, the flow is notable given the broader backdrop of weakness in the underlying asset. The related asset, BTC-USD, is currently trading at $87,739.53 and has shed about 20.6% over the past three months. Technically, the short-term picture remains bearish, with the 1-day signal flashing Strong Sell.
Against that backdrop, the latest inflow into HODL suggests that some investors are using the pullback in Bitcoin as a strategic entry point via a regulated ETF wrapper, even as near-term momentum and technical indicators point to continued volatility. The combination of falling prices and steady inflows may reflect a growing divide between short-term traders reacting to technical signals and longer-horizon investors leaning into the drawdown.
