VanEck Bitcoin Trust Shs of Benef Interest’s HODL attracted new money on January 15, 2026, with latest net inflows of $8,275,890. The move nudged the fund’s assets under management to roughly $1.52 billion, with the latest flow representing about 0.54% of total AUM — a meaningful vote of confidence given the recent weakness in the underlying asset.
The related asset, BTC-USD, is currently trading around $89,045.31, down about 17.38% over the past three months. Despite this slide and a one-day technical stance flashing Strong Sell, investors are still adding to HODL, suggesting that some market participants see the recent drawdown as a longer-term accumulation opportunity rather than a reason to capitulate.
The divergence between HODL’s fresh inflows and Bitcoin’s negative price momentum underscores the split between technical traders, who remain cautious, and ETF investors, who appear willing to use listed vehicles to average into volatility.
