U.S. spot Bitcoin ETFs saw $137 million in net inflows Monday after a $390 million outflow week, aiding BTC’s recovery above $64,000.
Bitcoin climbed back to the $64,000-$64,300 range on August 18, 2026, as U.S. spot Bitcoin ETFs recorded $137 million in net inflows. The move follows a $390 million outflow the prior week, signaling tentative demand recovery.
Ethereum traded near $1,900, while altcoins showed mixed performance. An Altcoin Season Index at 46 suggests rotation rather than a broad rally. Regulatory progress on stablecoins and the CLARITY Act remains uncertain.
The rebound remains fragile, with traders awaiting sustained inflows and confirmation of a broader crypto market recovery.
