Bitcoin traded above $80,000 on Tuesday, up 2.12% on the day to $80,658.21, after spot Bitcoin and Ethereum ETFs logged their strongest weekly inflow in roughly ten months. Crypto Briefing and CryptoSlate both flagged the window as the biggest of 2026 for the two ETF categories combined, and the move held even as equities slipped: SPY fell 0.29% and QQQ fell 1.00% the same session, according to Yahoo Finance data.
