Bitcoin ETF By BlackRock Registers First Daily Net Inflow In 3 Weeks: What To Know

Source Newsbtc

BlackRock’s iShare Bitcoin Trust (IBIT) registered its first daily net inflow in three weeks, leading to US spot Bitcoin exchange-traded-funds (ETFs) witnessing a combined net inflow of $12.8 million, data from Farside Investors confirms.

BlackRock’s Spot Bitcoin ETF Attracts Net Inflows, How About Other ETFs?

BlackRock forayed into the Bitcoin ETF space when the US Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) approved IBIT in January 2024.

Dubbed the world’s largest asset manager with a total asset-under-management (AUM) of $9 trillion, BlackRock’s entry into the nascent crypto ETF ecosystem was met with much enthusiasm by investors as it not only brought a degree of sophistication but also exhibited institutional approval toward the industry.

Yesterday, the asset manager’s regulated financial product pulled $15.8 million in daily net inflows, a first since August 26, 2024. The net inflow of funds into IBIT was strong enough to push the wider US spot Bitcoin ETF market into green territory, with a combined net inflow of $12.8 million.

IBIT’s three weeks of no net daily inflows consisted of 11 days with zero flows, while two days – August 29, and September 9 – saw net daily outflows to $13.5 million and $9.1 million, respectively.

Looking at the performance of other spot Bitcoin ETFs, Grayscale’s GBTC product witnessed a net daily outflow of $20.8 million. At the same time, Fidelity’s FBTC, Franklin Templeton’s EZBC, and VanEck’s HODL experienced a net daily inflow of $5.1 million, $5 million, and $4.9 million, respectively.

According to data from cryptocurrency ETF tracker SoSoValue, BlackRock’s IBIT reigns supreme among US-based spot Bitcoin ETFs, with an enviable cumulative net inflow of $20.9 billion since the product’s inception early this year. FBTC follows this with $10.1 billion, Ark and 21Shares’ ARKB with $2.6 billion, and Bitwise’s BITB with $2.2 billion. 

In contrast, GBTC has witnessed a cumulative net outflow of $20 billion. Analysts blame the product’s exorbitant fee of 1.5% as a major reason for GBTC’s performance to date. For comparison, IBIT has a fee of 0.21%.

Spot Ethereum ETFs Continue Their Lackluster Performance

While spot Bitcoin ETFs ended the day with a combined net inflow of $12.8 million, spot Ethereum ETFs experienced a combined net outflow of $9.4 million.

Akin to its Bitcoin ETF, Grayscale’s Ethereum ETF (ETHE) witnessed a net daily outflow of $13.8 million, followed by Bitwise’s ETHW with a $2.1 million net outflow. Only Grayscale’s mini Ethereum ETF (ETH) successfully attracted net inflows worth $2.3 million.

Since their approval in May 2024, Ethereum ETFs haven’t performed as well as Bitcoin ETFs when attracting significant inflows.

The tepid performance of Ethereum ETFs is reflected in the digital asset’s price as it continues to underperform against Bitcoin. Ethereum trades at $2,307 at press time, slightly up by 0.6% in the past 24 hours.

Bitcoin briefly loses 2025 gains as crypto plunges over the weekend.Bitcoin experienced a sharp decline this weekend, briefly erasing its 2025 gains and dipping below its year-opening value of $93,507. The cryptocurrency fell to a low of $93,029 on Sunday, representing a 25% drop from its all-time high in October. Although it has rebounded slightly to around $94,209, the pressures on the market remain significant. The downturn occurred despite the reopening of the U.S. government on Thursday, which many had hoped would provide essential support for crypto markets. This year initially appeared promising for cryptocurrencies, particularly after the inauguration of President Donald Trump, who has established the most pro-crypto administration thus far. However, ongoing political tensions—including Trump's tariff strategies and the recent government shutdown, lasting a historic 43 days—have contributed to several rapid price pullbacks for Bitcoin throughout the year. Market dynamics are also being influenced by Bitcoin whales—investors holding large amounts of Bitcoin—who have been offloading portions of their assets, consequently stalling price rallies even as positive regulatory developments emerge. Despite these sell-offs, analysts from Glassnode argue that this behavior aligns with typical patterns seen among long-term investors during the concluding stages of bull markets, suggesting it is not indicative of a mass exodus. Notably, Bitcoin is not alone in its struggles, as Ethereum and Solana have also recorded declines of 7.95% and 28.3%, respectively, since the start of the year, while numerous altcoins have faced even steeper losses. Looking ahead, questions linger regarding the viability of the four-year cycle thesis, particularly given the increasing institutional support and regulatory frameworks now in place in the crypto landscape. Matt Hougan, chief investment officer at Bitwise, remains optimistic, suggesting a potential Bitcoin resurgence in 2026 driven by the “debasement trade” thesis and a broader trend toward increased adoption of stablecoins, tokenization, and decentralized finance. Hougan emphasized the soundness of the underlying fundamentals, pointing to a positive outlook for the sector in the longer term.
