Leading ETF Performers
BlackRock’s IBIT currently holds over $18.5 billion in Assets Under Management (AUM), with a notable single-day inflow of $260 million, equivalent to approximately 4,005 BTC. On the other hand, Fidelity’s FBTC ETF is approaching a significant threshold, with its AUM nearing $10 billion, standing at $9.962 billion as of the last trading day.
The expansion of Bitcoin ETFs is significantly driven by institutional investors. Recent 13F filings reveal that 79% of institutions have increased their stakes in these ETFs, indicating a strategic shift towards incorporating Bitcoin into diversified investment portfolios.
The robust inflows and escalating AUM of Bitcoin ETFs reflect their potential to integrate Bitcoin more deeply into the mainstream financial system. The continuous engagement from institutional investors suggests a positive outlook, with expectations that the total BTC holdings in U.S. Bitcoin ETFs will reach 1 million by the end of the month.
