US Spot Bitcoin ETFs drew $1.97 billion in net inflows during April 2026, the strongest monthly performance of the year and an improvement to the $1.32 billion net inflows recorded in March.
That matters because it changes the tone of the market. ETF redemptions in the first three months of the year added pressure to Bitcoin’s correction, leading to the idea that institutions were stepping away. This week’s data suggests the opposite, showing that institutional capital is starting to move back in.
AIMCo is also not moving alone. Other Canadian institutions have already taken positions in Strategy, including National Bank of Canada, Canada Pension Plan Investment Board, Royal Bank of Canada, and Healthcare of Ontario Pension Plan.
