Bitcoin (BTC) price experienced a remarkable surge in the final two months of Q4 2024, reaching an all-time high of $108,388. Several key factors primarily drove this rally.

Among the major influences were Trump's victory in the November elections and substantial inflows into Bitcoin ETFs, which bolstered investor confidence.

However, on December 18, Bitcoin's price took a hit after the Federal Reserve indicated a more cautious approach, becoming a topic of pessimism that led to a sell-off as demand weakened.

Despite the earlier setbacks, U.S. spot Bitcoin ETFs saw a positive net inflow just a day after Christmas. This followed four consecutive days of outflows, during which Bitcoin ETFs lost more than $1.5 Billion.

The sudden influx of capital on December 26 suggested renewed investor interest.

Bitcoin ETFs see strong rebound

Following the U.S. market closure on December 25 for Christmas, Bitcoin ETFs saw a significant rebound on December 26, recording total inflows reaching $475.15 Million.

This was a sharp contrast to the previous four days, where Bitcoin ETFs experienced net outflows totaling $1.52 Billion between December 19 and December 24.

Fidelity's FBTC led the charge, attracting $254.37 million in inflows. This pushed its total historical net inflows to $12.05 Billion. ARK 21Shares' ARKB also saw strong performance, bringing in $186.94 million, lifting its cumulative inflows to $2.60 Billion.

BlackRock's IBIT added $56.51 Million. Conversely, Grayscale's Bitcoin Mini Trust and VanEck's HODL saw more modest inflows of $7.19 million and $2.7 Million, respectively.

On the other hand, some funds experienced outflows during the same period. Meanwhile, five other Bitcoin ETFs reported no changes in their flows.

Grayscale's GBTC saw $24.23 Million in withdrawals, and Bitwise's BITB lost $8.32 Million. This pushed GBTC's total historical net outflows to $21.36 Billion.

The total trading volume for Bitcoin ETFs was $2.13 Billion on December 26, nearly identical to the previous day's volume of $2.16 billion.

This rebound in inflows signals a renewed interest in Bitcoin ETFs. It has followed a period of outflows and market uncertainty, offering potential optimism as the year draws close.

The Grayscale Ethereum Mini Trust followed with a modest inflow of $5.95 million. On the other hand, the remaining six Ethereum ETFs stayed neutral for the day. This robust activity highlighted the growing appetite for Ethereum-focused investment products.
