Spot Bitcoin ETF Fund Flows: IBIT and FBTC Lead the Way
(Source: SoSoValue)
Yesterday’s spot Bitcoin ETF net inflow was significant, with the top two ETFs accounting for nearly 70% of the total daily inflow:
Ranking by Major ETF Net Inflows (Single Day)
BlackRock IBIT: Net inflow of $182 million for the day; historical cumulative net inflow of $63.3B
Fidelity FBTC: Net inflow of $147 million for the day; historical cumulative net inflow of $11.11B
The pattern of funds remaining highly concentrated in the leading ETFs continues, reflecting that institutional investors’ preference for existing spot Bitcoin ETF products is stabilizing.
Spot Ethereum ETFs: Record a Synchronized Net Inflow of $120 Million
Spot Ethereum ETFs showed positive fund flows on the same day, with total net inflow reaching $120 million. BlackRock’s ETHA led with $60.8217 million, followed by Fidelity’s FETH with $40.0562 million. As of the time of writing, the total net asset value of spot Ethereum ETFs was $12.28B, accounting for 4.74% of Ethereum’s total market capitalization, with historical cumulative net inflow of $11.6B. With spot Bitcoin and spot Ethereum ETFs experiencing inflows in tandem, it suggests that institutional capital’s parallel allocation demand for the two major mainstream crypto assets remains steady.
Market Background: QCP Capital Interprets the Continuation of Risk-on Sentiment
In its analysis on April 6, QCP Capital noted that Trump has delayed action against Iran for the fourth time. Market immunity to the repeated pattern of “hardline statements + negotiation signals” is gradually forming. Expectations for pricing in geopolitical conflict escalation have cooled, oil prices have weakened, and stock index futures have remained stable.
Overall market sentiment is tilted toward risk-on. In March, Bitcoin ETFs had already recorded cumulative net inflow of about $1.32 billion. During Asian trading hours, when Bitcoin broke through $69,000 and Ethereum rose above $2,140, roughly $200 million in short liquidations were triggered in a relatively thin liquidity environment. QCP Capital reminded that with U.S. stocks reopening, the durability of this rebound still needs to be further validated.
BlackRock Applies for a Nasdaq 100 ETF to Expand Its ETF Footprint
Against the backdrop of strong capital attraction by crypto ETF products, BlackRock also submitted to the SEC the filing documents for an iShares Nasdaq 100 ETF (trading symbol IQQ), intending to enter a market long led by Invesco—whose QQQ has $374 billion in assets under management, and QQQM has $70 billion. If IQQ is approved, it would become the first Nasdaq 100 index ETF not managed by Invesco, further strengthening BlackRock’s diversified布局 in the global ETF market.

BTC rose 0.56% in 15 minutes: trading volume surges and buy-side dominance drives a spot rebound
From 07:15 to 07:30 on April 20, 2026 (UTC), BTC achieved a +0.56% short-term return in mainstream markets. The price range touched 74718.5 - 75568.1 USDT, and the 15-minute intraday swing reached 1.14%. In this phase, market attention warmed up, trading activity rose noticeably, and overall volatility increased.
The main driver behind this deviation is that for mainstream trading pairs such as BTC/USDT, the 15-minute trading volume increased month-over-month to +15%, forming a buy-side dominant pattern that pushed spot prices upward to break higher. Inflows directly drove the short-term upside. On-chain data shows that large BTC transfers were dispatched to new wallets in a structured, staged manner, with no concentrated sell pressure flowing to trading platforms. This releases a rebalancing signal rather than a sell signal, which helps ease short-term sell pressure. The chain

ETH jumps 1.22% in 15 minutes: DeFi segment activity and trading volume surge resonate to drive the move
2026-04-20 07:15 to 07:30 (UTC), ETH’s short-term return reached +1.22%. The price range spanned from 2285.19 to 2332.62 USDT, with a 2.07% amplitude. During this period, market attention heated up, volatility noticeably intensified. On-chain transaction volume rose in tandem, and key mainstream on-chain activity indicators expanded significantly on a month-over-month basis.
The primary driver of this deviation was an increase in transaction activity related to DeFi protocols, which boosted the share of on-chain Gas consumption. At the same time, total on-chain transaction volume saw a sharp surge in a short time. DeFi scenarios such as decentralized exchanges and lending protocols led to a direct surge in demand for ETH, driving funds to flow quickly into the market. In addition, the average Gas fees and Gas prices on the ETH network continued to climb in this window, further validating that high-frequency trading and active capital were accelerating into the market and strengthening short-term bullish sentiment.
Second, on-chain data also showed an expansion in liquidity related to stablecoins and ERC20 assets, strengthening market buy-side power. Although historical large-wallets such as Wilcke still held a large amount of ETH after early March, this cycle did not trigger abnormal transfers or large-scale sell-offs. Meanwhile, the positioning structure of mainstream ETH did not show passive deleveraging or concentrated liquidation. Under the combined effects of multiple factors, global buy-side demand was amplified, and short-term ETH volatility was further elevated.
Be alert to the risk of capital sustainability after a surge in high-frequency trading volume and Gas fees. If subsequent incremental buying is lacking or on-chain attention cools down, ETH may face short-term pullback pressure. Monitor changes in large-holder positions, any abnormal shifts in network fees, and liquidity volatility on the DeFi protocol chain. While there have been no signs of security incidents involving major contracts and protocols so far, short-term liquidity disturbances still need close observation. Keep monitoring fund flows and on-chain structure to stay informed about subsequent market changes.
