π US Bitcoin Spot ETF Inflows Hit a 2026 High
Weekly net inflows into US spot $BTC ETFs reached $2.25B, marking the strongest weekly result of 2026. The move follows several weeks of uneven flows, including just $6M in net inflows last week.
The sharp rebound suggests that institutional demand has returned quickly, with the latest inflows even surpassing the previous 2026 peak of $1.92B recorded in late August.

π Crypto Cycles Follow a Consistent Timeline
Despite major changes in the crypto market over the past decade, the time from cycle bottom to peak has remained remarkably stable.

If the same pattern repeats from $BTC 2026 low, the next cycle peak would fall around May 25, 2029.
