Saylor Buying and ETF Net Inflows Signal Bitcoin’s Return to Bull Market
The Bitcoin (BTC) spot ETF market saw $167 million in inflows in a single day, offsetting most of last week’s large-scale outflows and signaling a sharp recovery in investor sentiment.
On February 11 (local time), U.S. spot Bitcoin ETFs recorded net inflows of $167 million, successfully recovering most of the record-breaking outflows seen the previous week. The inflows coincided with a strong rebound in Bitcoin’s price, which had fallen to the low $60,000 range before attempting to reclaim the $70,000 level. Market experts interpret last week’s outflows as the result of temporary profit-taking and increased volatility driven by macroeconomic uncertainty, while viewing the latest inflows as a clear sign of renewed dip-buying activity.
BlackRock’s IBIT, the world’s largest asset manager’s Bitcoin ETF, led the inflows. IBIT has posted consistent gains in recent trading sessions, playing a decisive role in reinforcing the market’s downside resilience. Meanwhile, funds from other issuers such as Fidelity and Ark Invest, which had previously led significant outflows, have shown noticeably slowing withdrawals or a shift back to net inflows. Institutional investors are increasing their Bitcoin allocations within portfolios as the cryptocurrency once again tests the $70,000 resistance level.
Last week, the Bitcoin spot ETF market recorded net outflows of approximately $318 million, marking the harshest week of 2026 so far. As Bitcoin’s price precariously fell toward $60,000, leveraged liquidations accelerated and ETF investors pulled back. However, sentiment shifted following the recent $167 million inflow. With Bitcoin stabilizing between $68,000 and $71,000 this week, more than half of last week’s outflows have reportedly returned to the market.
Corporate Bitcoin accumulation is also aligning with ETF inflows. Strategy (formerly MicroStrategy) Chairman Michael Saylor recently disclosed the purchase of an additional 1,142 BTC worth approximately $90 million, reaffirming his strong conviction in Bitcoin’s long-term value. Saylor’s aggressive buying has helped ease retail investor concerns and acted as a catalyst for institutional capital returning through ETFs. As liquidity improves across the digital asset market, Bitcoin has recovered most of last week’s losses and is laying the groundwork for a potential new price peak.
Bitcoin spot ETFs have now evolved beyond merely reflecting market volatility to becoming a key indicator influencing price direction. The recovery in inflows demonstrates that institutional demand for digital assets remains solid and suggests that the recent price correction was a healthy adjustment within a broader long-term bull market. Market participants continue to closely monitor ETF fund flows and macroeconomic indicators while cautiously watching whether Bitcoin can break above and firmly establish itself beyond the $70,000 level.
