The data shows that steady buying supported the recovery trend. In turn, ETF balances approached their January starting levels. The reversal followed four consecutive months of withdrawals through February 2026.
March Inflows Break Four-Month Withdrawal Streak
Bitcoin ETFs recorded about $1.53 billion in net inflows in March. Fund providers reported steady demand throughout the month. Consequently, the funds moved closer to ending the prolonged outflow streak.
Since November 2025, the products had posted monthly net withdrawals. However, March inflows placed the funds on track to close the month with a positive balance. This shift would end four straight months of declining balances.
CryptoQuant data confirms that inflows accelerated during recent weeks. As buying continued, ETF holdings recovered from February lows. The funds now stand within 4,000 BTC of their January positions.
Market data shows that sustained inflows could erase the remaining deficit. Analysts expect the products to offset the 4,000 BTC gap if demand holds. As of March 26, the net 2026 outflow remains at 4,000 BTC.
The latest figures reflect cumulative flows across all listed Bitcoin ETFs. Fund managers continue to publish daily flow updates. March totals currently show $1.53 billion in net inflows.
