Will U.S. spot bitcoin ETFs post net inflows for the week ending Friday, August 7?
75% of users predicted YES — the community got this one right. 4 predictions cast.
U.S. spot bitcoin ETFs recorded net inflows for the week ending Friday, August 7, 2026, extending a rebound that began in early August after a historically weak July. Combined issuer inflows reached $170.1 million on August 3 alone, led by BlackRock's IBIT, Fidelity's FBTC and Franklin Templeton's EZBC. Buying pressure continued through the week as bitcoin traded near $64,000, with weekly net inflows totaling roughly $381 million. The turnaround followed a month in which the ETF category logged its smallest monthly inflow total since the products launched in January 2024, meaning the positive weekly print marked a clear reversal rather than a continuation of an existing trend. Renewed institutional demand, concentrated in BlackRock's fund, drove the recovery. The community's 75% Yes forecast proved directionally correct, matching the funds' eventual positive net flow for the week.
