Breaking News: US Bitcoin ETFs Experience Record $1B+ Inflows for Two Consecutive Days – [Current Year]
Overview
The US-based spot Bitcoin exchange-traded funds (ETFs) have achieved a remarkable milestone by recording over $1 billion in inflows for two consecutive days, marking a significant first since their inception in January 2024.
The latest market analysis indicates on Friday, these spot Bitcoin ETFs saw a combined total of $1.03 billion inflows, following a record-breaking $1.17 billion the day before. BlackRock’s IBIT took the lead on Friday, attracting a substantial $953 million in inflows, showcasing a strong investor interest in the cryptocurrency market.
It’s noteworthy that since the launch of these ETFs, there have only been seven days where inflows surpassed the $1 billion mark, with two of those occurring in the last two days. This recent surge in inflows indicates a growing appetite for Bitcoin investments among institutional and retail investors alike.
Matt Hougan, Chief Investment Officer at Bitwise Invest, highlighted the significant impact of these inflows on the Bitcoin network, with spot Bitcoin ETFs purchasing approximately 10,000 BTC, far exceeding the daily mined supply. This surge in demand has helped drive Bitcoin‘s price to new all-time highs, reaching $118,780 on Friday.
The strong demand for Bitcoin ETFs has contributed to a total of $2.72 billion in inflows over the past five trading days, propelling the assets under management (AUM) of BlackRock’s spot Bitcoin ETF (IBIT) to over $80 billion. This rapid growth has positioned IBIT as the fastest ETF to reach this milestone, achieving it in just 374 days.
Additionally, recent reports indicate a broader institutional shift towards Bitcoin investments, with companies like Metaplanet in Japan acquiring $237 million worth of BTC to become one of the top five corporate holders of Bitcoin. Similarly, firms like The Blockchain Group in France and the Smarter Web Company in the UK have made significant BTC treasury allocations, reflecting a growing trend of Bitcoin adoption among corporations worldwide.
Looking ahead, Bloomberg’s senior ETF analysts have raised the odds of the SEC approving spot ETFs for Solana, XRP, and Litecoin to 95%, underscoring the increasing optimism surrounding institutional crypto products. This approval, if granted, could further boost the adoption and mainstream acceptance of cryptocurrencies in the financial markets.
In conclusion, the consecutive $1 billion+ inflow days for US spot Bitcoin ETFs signal a strong investor interest in the cryptocurrency market, fueled by a combination of price surges, institutional adoption, and growing optimism for regulatory approvals. As the crypto landscape continues to evolve, these developments highlight the increasing integration of digital assets into traditional investment portfolios and corporate treasuries alike, shaping the future of finance in a digital age.
