Global Crypto Funds Draw $3.2 Billion in a Week, Largest Since October 2025

According to Bank of America's weekly "The Flow Show" report, cited by CryptoBriefing and Iran's tgju.org on Sunday, 8 Shahrivar 1405 (August 30, 2026), global crypto investment funds recorded $3.2 billion in net inflows for the week ending Mordad 31, 1405 (August 22, 2026), the largest single week inflow since October 2025. The figure came just one week after the same funds had seen $392 million in outflows, marking a roughly $3 billion week over week swing.

US spot Bitcoin and Ethereum ETFs did the heavy lifting, together pulling in about $2.6 billion, or 81 percent of the total. Bitcoin funds alone attracted $1.9 billion and Ethereum funds $697 million. Monthly Bitcoin ETF inflows for August 2026 also topped $3 billion, making it one of the strongest months on record for these funds.

Bitcoin's price rose alongside the inflows, climbing into the $78,000 to $80,000 range; per Sahmino's own price data, bitcoin traded at $78,173 on Monday, 9 Shahrivar (August 31). For Iran's market, where tether and other cryptocurrencies track these same global prices, the return of institutional appetite for Bitcoin and Ethereum is one gauge of global demand direction; tether traded around 209,000 tomans in Iran's domestic market today.
