US spot Bitcoin ETFs closed April with $1.97 billion in inflows, their highest monthly total of 2026 and well above March’s $1.37 billion, according to SoSoValue data.

With March and April inflows offsetting January and February outflows, the products now show roughly $1.47 billion in net inflows for the year, while cumulative net inflows since launch have topped $58 billion.

IBIT leads the charge

BlackRock’s iShares Bitcoin Trust ETF (IBIT) was the dominant force in April, pulling in around $2 billion in net inflows on its own.

Grayscale’s GBTC was the biggest drag, posting roughly $280 million in net outflows over the same period.

The newly launched Morgan Stanley Bitcoin Trust ETF (MSBT), which began trading on April 8, contributed $194 million in inflows without recording a single day of outflows.

Price movement

April’s gains came alongside a 12% rise in bitcoin — its strongest monthly performance since April 2025, when it climbed more than 14%.

Late-month selling did create some turbulence, with roughly $490 million in outflows across three days in late April, though this wasn’t enough to dent the monthly total.

Ether ETFs snap losing streak

The positive trend extended beyond bitcoin, with Ether ETFs logging their first monthly inflow since October 2025 at $356 million.

Despite the April rebound, Ether ETFs remain about $413 million in the red for 2026 year to date, with cumulative net inflows since launch sitting at roughly $11.9 billion.
