Spot Bitcoin ETFs have now marked inflows for the fourth consecutive day as of August 20, 2024, Eastern Time. The total for that day is $88 million

Spot Bitcoin ETFs continued to see inflows for the fourth consecutive day on August 20, 2024 (Eastern Time), totaling $88 million, despite a negative flow from Grayscale's GBTC, which amounted to $12.8 million.

BlackRock's IBIT single-handedly influenced the flow, which may not be the case every time. IBIT led the charge with an inflow of $55.4 million, followed by $51.9 million by ARKB.

Among the few that reported negative flows on August 20 were GBTC and another player on the list, BITB by Bitwise, which amounted to $6.5 million.

The trend began on August 15, 2024, when the total reported inflow was $11.1 million, which went up to $35.9 million, then $62.1 million. The current reported number not only continues the trend of inflows but also takes it a step ahead by marking more gains.

GBTC did not report any data for August 19, 2024; inflows were around $62.1 million. BlackRock stayed on top with $92.7 million in inflows.

Bitcoin's value oscillates between $57k and $61k, impacted by the positive flows. At the time of writing this article, the token's current listing is $59,380.36, following a 3.05% decline in the last 24 hours.

The fall is due to the exchange value of $60.94k, which further reflects a dip of 2.57% in the last 7 days and 11.445 in the previous 30 days.

Bitcoin's near-term prospects are positive. The token's value could increase by 17.97% to $69,899 over the next five days. It will subsequently initiate a 39.62% increase in the next 30 days, resulting in a value of $82,727. For insights on its future movements, check out our BTC price prediction.

So far, Spot Bitcoin ETF has received $17,524 million in total inflows, out of which BlackRock has the highest at $20,536 million, followed by Fidelity's FBTC at $9,808 million.

Dynamics are likely to change in the times to come as Goldman Sachs has lowered the possibility of a recession to 20%, assuring a rising economic condition where investors will have sufficient risk appetite to explore riskier territories. The probability of a recession was 25% earlier.

However, when the next report reveals the current economic conditions, it may revise the possibility of a recession. The September employment data will most likely determine how the rest of the year (2024) pans out - whether it will be stable or loaded with fluctuations.

All of this will have an impact on the Spot Bitcoin ETF and, consequently, Bitcoin. It has to be seen whether the ETF's sentiments carry over to the next day, or if negative flows take over.
