That was nearly 2.9 times the $108.4 million added by BlackRock&#8217;s iShares Bitcoin Trust, known as IBIT. Bitwise&#8217;s BITB, ARK 21Shares&#8217; ARKB and VanEck&#8217;s HODL also posted smaller positive flows, giving the session more than one meaningful source of demand.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter wp-image-564140\" src=\"https:\/\/cryptoslate.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/09\/exec-b6d10337-0888-4f60-8664-c4db303f13c0.png\" alt=\"Infographic showing Fidelity leading Friday's Bitcoin ETF inflows, the midweek withdrawal and rebound sequence, and a nearly flat five-session week\" width=\"720\" height=\"900\" srcset=\"https:\/\/cryptoslate.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/09\/exec-b6d10337-0888-4f60-8664-c4db303f13c0.png 1122w, https:\/\/cryptoslate.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/09\/exec-b6d10337-0888-4f60-8664-c4db303f13c0-240x300.png 240w, https:\/\/cryptoslate.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/09\/exec-b6d10337-0888-4f60-8664-c4db303f13c0-819x1024.png 819w, https:\/\/cryptoslate.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/09\/exec-b6d10337-0888-4f60-8664-c4db303f13c0-768x960.png 768w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 720px) 100vw, 720px\"\/><img loading=\"lazy\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"lazyload aligncenter wp-image-564140\" src=\"https:\/\/cryptoslate.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/09\/exec-b6d10337-0888-4f60-8664-c4db303f13c0.png\" alt=\"Infographic showing Fidelity leading Friday's Bitcoin ETF inflows, the midweek withdrawal and rebound sequence, and a nearly flat five-session week\" width=\"720\" height=\"900\" srcset=\"https:\/\/cryptoslate.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/09\/exec-b6d10337-0888-4f60-8664-c4db303f13c0.png 1122w, https:\/\/cryptoslate.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/09\/exec-b6d10337-0888-4f60-8664-c4db303f13c0-240x300.png 240w, https:\/\/cryptoslate.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/09\/exec-b6d10337-0888-4f60-8664-c4db303f13c0-819x1024.png 819w, https:\/\/cryptoslate.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/09\/exec-b6d10337-0888-4f60-8664-c4db303f13c0-768x960.png 768w\" data-sizes=\"(max-width: 720px) 100vw, 720px\"\/><\/p>\n<p>The issuer split marked a reversal from the earlier rebound. Monday&#8217;s return to inflows was led by BlackRock, with Fidelity playing a secondary role. By Friday, Fidelity was the largest contributor while IBIT remained positive.<\/p>\n<div class=\"cs-article-embed\">\n<p> <span class=\"cs-article-embed__related-reading\">Related Reading<\/span><\/p>\n<h3 class=\"cs-article-embed__title\">The $63 billion revolving door carrying the entire US Bitcoin ETF market<\/h3>\n<\/p>\n<p> <span class=\"cs-article-embed__arrow\" aria-hidden=\"true\"> <i class=\"fa-light fa-arrow-up-right\"\/> <\/span> <\/div>\n<p>The broader two-day picture was less decisive.

The week ended with $6.1 million of net inflows, underscoring how little separated the recovery from a negative weekly result.<\/p>\n<p>Friday also did not overturn the weekly issuer ranking. IBIT accumulated $120.6 million across the five sessions, compared with $79.9 million for FBTC. Fidelity led the latest session, but BlackRock still attracted more capital over the full week.<\/p>\n<p>That distinction matters for judging whether demand has genuinely broadened. Friday showed that the rebound was no longer dependent on IBIT alone, but a single session cannot establish a lasting change in how investors are allocating money across the funds. The weekly totals still point to BlackRock as the larger net beneficiary.<\/p>\n<p>The withdrawals landed on Sept. 15 and Sept. 16, the day before and the day of the Federal Reserve&#8217;s decision to raise its target range by 25 basis points to 3.75% to 4.00%. The timing provides context, but the available data does not show that the policy decision caused either the outflows or the subsequent rebound.<\/p>\n<div class=\"cs-article-embed\">\n<p> <span class=\"cs-article-embed__related-reading\">Related Reading<\/span><\/p>\n<h3 class=\"cs-article-embed__title\">Why Bitcoin hit $80k today hours before bad US data even landed<\/h3>\n<\/p>\n<p> <span class=\"cs-article-embed__arrow\" aria-hidden=\"true\"> <i class=\"fa-light fa-arrow-up-right\"\/> <\/span> <\/div>\n<p>The next ETF sessions will show whether Fidelity and the smaller issuers continue to contribute alongside BlackRock. For now, the evidence supports a narrower conclusion: participation broadened on Friday, the rebound recovered most of the midweek damage, and the week itself remained close to flat.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<p>ETF,Featured,Bitcoin,Blackrock,BTC,Fidelity InvestmentsBitcoin,Blackrock,BTC,ETF,Fidelity Investments#Bitcoin #ETF #inflows #Fidelity #leads #433M #Friday1789849243<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>U.S. spot Bitcoin exchange-traded funds drew $433 million of net inflows on Friday, Sept. 18, according to Farside Investors.
