The 2x Bitcoin Strategy ETF, ticker BITX, attracted $3.89 million in new money on January 2, 2026, signaling renewed appetite for leveraged crypto exposure despite a bruising quarter for Bitcoin. The fund now oversees approximately $1.43 billion in assets under management (AUM), with the latest inflow representing about 0.27% of its total size.
The move is notable given the backdrop: the related asset, BTC-USD, is trading around $93,425.34, down roughly 25.29% over the past three months. Technically, Bitcoin’s short‑term picture remains cautious rather than outright bearish, with a 1‑day signal currently flashing Hold, suggesting traders are weighing near‑term consolidation against the potential for a volatility rebound.
For BITX, which amplifies Bitcoin’s daily moves, the inflow hints that sophisticated traders may be positioning for a tactical bounce or using the ETF as a hedge or short‑term trading vehicle rather than making long‑term directional bets. With Bitcoin’s drawdown deepening while technicals remain neutral, the fresh capital points to a market that is bruised but far from capitulated.
