Bitcoin ETFs Record $985M Inflows as Traders Predict Parabolic Rally into 2026
Bitcoin is once again at the center of market attention after a surge of fresh institutional demand and bold forecasts for the months ahead.
According to data shared by analyst Carl Moon, U.S.-listed Bitcoin ETFs attracted $985 million in net inflows in a single day, marking the fifth consecutive session of positive flows.
The trend underscores how large investors continue to accumulate Bitcoin, even as prices consolidate near $122,600. With total ETF assets now above $164 billion, the appetite from Wall Street shows no signs of cooling.
At the same time, market strategists are drawing comparisons to previous cycle peaks. Trader Merlijn noted that Bitcoin’s current setup mirrors the run-ups of 2016 and 2020, where consolidation near all-time highs was followed by vertical gains.
He predicts that the final chapter of this cycle will unfold between Q4 2025 and Q1 2026, describing it as “vertical mania” driven by institutional flows and retail momentum.
The combination of record ETF inflows and technical strength has traders increasingly confident that Bitcoin could retest its August high of $125,000 before year-end. More importantly, momentum indicators point to potential Fibonacci extension targets near $135,000 in the coming months.
If institutional demand holds steady, analysts believe Bitcoin could stage one of its most dramatic finishes to a year yet, setting the stage for a parabolic rally into 2026.
