Spot Bitcoin ETFs set another record, witnessing the highest single-day net inflow since the launch of Bitcoin ETF in the United States. The record net inflow of over $1 billion helped Bitcoin rebound from a decline after hotter CPI inflation data and hit a new all-time high of $73K.
Spot Bitcoin ETF Records $1.05 Billion New Inflow
Net inflow into spot Bitcoin exchange-traded funds (ETF) reaches $1.05 billion on March 12, according to data by SoSoValue. The massive inflow came on the back of the second-highest volume day for the 10 Bitcoin ETFs. In fact, it was the best day in the past five weeks, with $8.5 billion.
Bloomberg senior ETF analyst Eric Balchunas said only five stocks have recorded higher trading volumes than $8.5 billion. BlackRock’s iShares Bitcoin ETF (IBIT) nearly $4 billion in volume, VanEck Bitcoin Trust ETF (HODL) and Invesco Galaxy Bitcoin ETF (BTCO) recording $150 million and $250 million volumes indicate huge demand in other ETFs. VanEck recently cut its Bitcoin ETF management fees to 0% for the next twelve months.
BlackRock’s iShares Bitcoin ETF (IBIT) saw $849 million inflow, breaking records of the highest inflow to date. Following the latest inflow, BlackRock’s net inflow hit over $11.44 billion and asset holdings jumped over $14.5 billion.
Fidelity Bitcoin ETF (FBTC) and Ark 21Shares (ARKB) Bitcoin ETF saw $51.6 million and $93 million inflows, respectively. Bitwise (BITB) and other spot Bitcoin ETFs saw marginally low inflows. VanEck Bitcoin ETF (HODL) saw an inflow of $82.9 million due to 0% fees amid higher competition.
In addition, GBTC recorded another outflow of $79 million, a welcomed fall indicative of Genesis’ GBTC selloffs reaching the end. Crypto lender Genesis received bankruptcy court approval to sell 35 million GBTC shares worth $1.3 billion. Notably, GBTC net outflow to date has reached over $11.12 billion.
