Bitcoin (BTC) exchange-traded funds (ETFs) have recorded substantial capital inflows totaling over $1.3 billion between June 9 and June 14, 2025, marking a strong resurgence after two weeks of outflows. Despite muted price performance and a brief 3% price drop amid escalating geopolitical tensions in the Middle East, investor confidence remained resilient.
The inflow streak, one of the strongest since Bitcoin ETFs launched, began amidst rising concerns over conflicts involving Israel and Iran. The capital continued to flow into Bitcoin ETFs daily, with the highest single-day intake exceeding $386 million.
Although Bitcoin’s price briefly slipped below $103,000 following significant long liquidations totaling $422 million, it recovered to around $105,000 by the end of the week. BTC traded near $106,000, up 1%, with a 16% rise in trading volume noted in recent days.
Market data reveals cautious sentiment in derivatives markets. Futures open interest declined nearly 10% since June 10, signaling traders are reducing risk exposure. Additionally, demand for put options, which profit from price declines, has outpaced calls, reflecting increased hedging activity and bearish sentiment.
Macro factors such as a weakening US Dollar Index, now below 100—the lowest in three years—are supporting Bitcoin’s bullish outlook. Historically, Bitcoin’s price tends to move inversely to the US dollar. Persistent concerns about inflation, national debt, and global stability reinforce Bitcoin’s role as a digital hedge asset amid traditional market uncertainty.
In summary, Bitcoin ETFs' strong inflows during a volatile period underscore sustained institutional interest and growing adoption despite geopolitical and market jitters. The price remains within roughly 6% of its all-time high near $112,000, suggesting underlying resilience in the crypto asset.
