Bitcoin ETFs post $6.1 million in net inflows over five sessions
Bitcoin ETFs drew $433 million on Sept. 18, leaving about $6.1 million in net inflows over five sessions as Nigel Green cited institutional demand.
Why it matters
U.S. spot bitcoin ETFs drew $433 million on Sept. 18, but the five-session net total was about $6.1 million, and ether and XRP funds continued losing money. The story's significance is limited to the reported ETF flows and Nigel Green's interpretation; neither report identifies a named institution making a long-term allocation.
Key facts
Nigel Green said purchases through regulated investment products signaled a shift toward longer-term ownership.

What happened
U.S. spot bitcoin ETFs recorded $433 million in net inflows on Sept. 18 after $159.5 million the previous session, according to Bitcoin.com News. The five-session total was about $6.1 million after $159.9 million of inflows on Sept. 14 and $433 million on Sept. 18 nearly offset $746.3 million withdrawn on Sept. 15 and 16; Crypto News cited rounded Farside data. Bitcoin.com News quoted Devere Group CEO Nigel Green, who described regulated-product buying as patient capital and argued that buyers had regained control. Crypto News said continued losses in ether and XRP funds showed that renewed demand for bitcoin products had not produced consistent buying across the broader crypto ETF market. Crypto News carried the Bitcoin.com account under a syndication label, and neither report quantified how much of the buying represented longer-term holdings.
