Bitcoin ETFs Rebounds Amidst the Rising Interest: Will BTC Reclaim the $100k Mark?

Bitcoin ETFs in the U.S. experienced a big turnaround with $900 million in inflows on January 3. The surge was led by Fidelity’s Bitcoin ETF (FBTC), which collected $357 million. BlackRock’s IBIT and Ark Invest’s ARKB followed with $252 million and $222 million, respectively. 

After weeks of outflows, this dramatic inflow indicates renewed institutional confidence in Bitcoin. In addition, according to Ali Martinez on X, the Coinbase Premium Index dropped to -0.23%, its lowest in two years. The recovery shows that demand among institutional investors is growing. This trend could support Bitcoin’s bullish momentum as interest increases.
