BlackRock’s Bitcoin Fund Joins Elite ETF Club With 70 Straight Days of Inflows

BlackRock’s Bitcoin Fund Joins Elite ETF Club With 70 Straight Days of Inflows

The world’s largest asset manager, BlackRock, has registered 70 straight days of inflows for its spot Bitcoin exchange-traded fund, IBIT.

The latest inflow on April 22 was $19.7 million which means that BlackRock is now in the top ten of longest daily inflow streaks for all US exchange-traded funds.

The 70-day milestone ties BlackRock’s IBIT fund with JETS, an ETF that combines shares in an index of airline industry companies.

It has also achieved 70 straight days of inflows, as Bloomberg ETF analyst Eric Balchunas observed yesterday.

BlackRock Commanding ETF Markets

Despite aggregate outflows for all trading days between Apil 12 and 18, BlackRock has continued to see inflows, albeit much smaller than their average.

The IBIT fund has seen $111.7 million in inflows over the past five trading days. However, three of those have seen net outflows from all spot Bitcoin ETFs due to Grayscale’s GBTC still hemorrhaging assets.

The tide has turned again, however, with April 22 showing a net inflow of $62.2 million, according to preliminary data from Farside Investors.

In addition to BlackRock, Inflows were boosted by Fidelity (FBTC) and ARK 21Shares (ARKB), which had $34.8 million and $22.6 million, respectively.

Even the Franklin Bitcoin ETF (EZBC) and VanEck Bitcoin Trust (HODL) saw inflows of $7.7 million and $7.5 million, respectively. These, and many of the other smaller funds, have had many days of zero flows. However, analysts explained that this was perfectly normal for these types of investment products.

Glassnode analyst ‘Checkmatey’ observed that there had yet to be a major exodus from Bitcoin ETFs (aside from Grayscale). Moreover, even GBTC’s outflows had slowed this week, falling to $35 million on Monday.

We we’re promised that all the degen traders would exit the #Bitcoin ETFs (excl GBTC) at the first sign of a correction…

…when does that process start exactly? https://t.co/PhKr5CoMF3 pic.twitter.com/70uj8VU3Ix

Crypto Market Outlook

The renewed interest in Bitcoin ETFs comes as markets show signs of recovery from their 18% pre-halving correction .

BTC has now recovered 5% since the weekend halving and was trading up 1% on the day at $66,300 during the Tuesday morning Asian trading session.

The altcoins were a mixed bag with larger gains for Solana (SOL), Ripple (XRP), and Near Protocol (NEAR), but losses for Toncoin (TON), Shiba Inu (SHIB), and Chainlink (LINK).

Government Shutdown, Employment Stagnation: Will the Crypto Market Soar Again on the Back of Liquidity?

Coinbase believes that a weaker US dollar, increased global liquidity, and the Federal Reserve's cautious rate-cutting policy will benefit the cryptocurrency market, with BTC potentially leading gains until November. The government shutdown has caused delays in economic data, making markets rely on private indicators and strengthening expectations for a dovish Fed. Once the liquidity gap factors subside, this could drive prices higher. Summary generated by Mars AI. The accuracy and completeness of this summary are still being iteratively improved.
