April crypto ETF fully turned positive, institutional funds sound the horn for an attack

The crypto ETF market in April delivered the strongest monthly performance in 2026, with the three major mainstream assets simultaneously achieving monthly net inflows, signaling clear institutional entry. Bitcoin spot ETF recorded a new high of $2.1 billion in monthly net inflows, and from April 14-24, it set a strong record of nine consecutive days of net inflows, injecting sufficient liquidity into the market.

Ethereum ETF ended a continuous six-month net outflow, announcing a strong comeback with a net inflow of $356.5 million; XRP ETF also emerged from the sluggish net outflow in March, recording a monthly net inflow of $81.59 million. The data for the three major assets turned positive simultaneously, forming a rare resonance of funds. As of the data release, BTC price rose above $78,324, and the strong capital flow directly boosted market confidence recovery.

Behind this round of capital reflow is a resonance of multiple positive factors: the gradually clarified US crypto regulatory framework, institutional optimistic expectations of BTC supply and demand after the halving, and the easing of policy uncertainty for Ethereum ETF. The market has shifted from previous volatility and bottoming out to a rebound led by institutional funds, with continuous ETF inflows serving as the most direct indicator.

Future market focus should be on two key nodes: the non-farm employment data on May 8 will influence Federal Reserve policy expectations, and the markup process of the Senate CLARITY Act will determine the long-term compliance path of the industry. Against the backdrop of sustained capital improvement, the structural trend in the crypto market is expected to continue, but macro policies and regulatory dynamics will remain key variables influencing short-term volatility. #比特币ETF期权持仓限额增4倍 @Gate广场_Official
