#Strategy加仓BTC Bitcoin and Ethereum Spot ETF Welcome a New Wave of Capital Inflows

Last week (January 12-16) showed some interesting data — the US spot Bitcoin ETF saw a weekly net inflow of $1.42 billion, with BlackRock's IBIT performing the strongest, taking in $1.035 billion alone. Ethereum was also not to be outdone; the trading volume of spot ETFs surged, and among the weekly net inflows of several hundred million dollars, BlackRock's ETHA led the pack, with approximately $219 million.

Honestly, just looking at these numbers, you can feel the actions of institutional investors. Capital flows never lie — as the big players keep increasing their positions one after another, the market’s rhythm begins to subtly change. Short-term prices may still be testing, but the long-term pattern is gradually taking shape through continuous institutional deployment.

In this marathon of the crypto market, those who position themselves early often end up laughing last.

Blackstone's wave of accumulation is truly incredible. Retail investors are still debating whether to buy or not, while institutions are already betting long-term. --- Money talks, and this time feels different... BlackRock is directly pouring in a billion-level investment, not a game. --- Those who secured positions early are really winning big. Does it still feel good to jump on now? It might be a bit late... --- A weekly inflow of 1.42 billion, what kind of concept is that? How long would it take to absorb all that? --- It's hilarious. Retail investors are still doing short-term trading, while institutions are laying out long-term strategies. The perspectives are on completely different levels.

BlackRock's move is truly brilliant. Gaining over 1 billion in a week—who can resist... Retail investors are still debating when to buy the dip, but big institutions have already jumped on board.

Blackstone's move is really aggressive, pulling in over 1 billion in a week... Looks like we need to follow the institutions to reap the benefits. Institutions are quietly accumulating, while we're still debating short-term ups and downs, which is a bit funny. Getting in early can indeed lead to the last laugh. Is it still not too late to join now? It feels like this year's BTC landscape has truly changed, with major institutions entering one after another. Wait, Blackstone IBIT over 1 billion in a week? Do we need to verify this data again... Long-term optimistic, but don't overthink the short-term. Following the steps of the institutions is the right move. Positioning is spot on. The game in crypto is all about who can see through first.

BlackRock is really not joking around this time, pouring in ten billion dollars a week. Who can keep up with this pace? Retail investors are still debating whether prices will go up or down, but big institutions have already been betting on the long term. The outlook is completely different. Basically, it's about who can hold on, and not be scared into selling off due to short-term fluctuations.

BlackRock is really just hoarding all the gains; with one company taking so much, other small ETFs can forget about it, haha.

BlackRock's move is really aggressive, attracting over 1 billion in a week... institutions are starting to clear out Retail investors are still debating whether to buy the dip, while the big players have already moved in This is why those who buy in the morning always make money, and we can only watch in frustration Wait, does this data include Gray's escape? Could there be some manipulation in the net inflow? Whether the pattern can take shape depends on the Fed's attitude.

BlackRock's move... pouring in over 1 billion in a week, this is really a bet. The momentum of follow-the-leader institutions is quite intense.

BlackRock's recent moves really shouldn't be underestimated; institutions are truly quietly accumulating chips. The pace of whale accumulation, retail investors are still debating the rise and fall—it's interesting. Funds don't lie; by watching the flow, you can see who is seriously playing. If you don't secure your position now, later it will be up to others to race ahead.
