ProShares Short Bitcoin Strategy ETF, BITI, recorded fresh inflows of $1,285,130 on March 12, 2026, a move that nudged its assets under management to $143.7 million. The latest flow represents roughly 0.89% of AUM, signaling renewed interest in downside protection even as Bitcoin’s price action turns choppier.
The related asset, BTC-USD, is currently trading at $73,936.52, having shed about 14.9% over the past three months after a torrid rally earlier in the year. Yet the short-term tone has improved, with a 1-day technical signal flashing Buy, highlighting the tension between tactical bulls and structural bears.
BITI’s inflow suggests some investors are positioning for further volatility or a potential pullback despite Bitcoin’s recent attempt to stabilize. The nearly 1% boost to AUM in a single day underscores how quickly sentiment can swing toward hedging in a market still digesting prior gains and macro uncertainty.
