  "account": "Bitcoin witnessed a remarkable surge of 42.71% in Q3, marking its best third-quarter performance since 2017, according to CoinGlass. The rally was fueled by a significant inflow of $6.34 billion from US spot Bitcoin ETFs, representing their strongest quarter of 2026. The funds closed September with $2.65 billion in net inflows, after a notable decrease from $3.52 billion in August and a sharp drop from $172 million in July. This marked a reversal from the $5 billion in net outflows recorded in the second quarter. The Q3 performance was a stark contrast to the previous quarters, with Bitcoin gaining 42.71% in the quarter, its strongest quarterly gain since Q4 2024. The September inflows, however, ended on a weaker note, with Bitcoin ETFs recording approximately $149 million in net outflows on Wednesday, breaking a nine-day inflow streak that attracted about $3.1 billion. Apart from Bitcoin, US spot Ether ETFs also attracted a substantial $3.05 billion in Q3, after a net outflow of $714 million in Q2. Ether, in particular, saw a substantial 71% increase during the quarter. Other altcoin funds, including XRP and Solana, also recorded net inflows in September, with XRP ETFs attracting $308 million and Solana ETFs drawing $272 million.",
