Bitcoin ETF Inflows At Three-day Streak
The U.S. spot Bitcoin ETF market is experiencing a moderation in inflows after a robust start to the week. While positive inflows persist, the pace has eased compared to Tuesday’s high of $31 million. Data from SosoValue reveals net inflows of $11.8 million on Thursday, extending the positive streak to three days.
Leading the pack on Thursday was Bitwise Asset Management’s BITB with $8 million in inflows, followed by Fidelity Digital Assets’ FBTC at $7 million. Notably, Franklin Templeton’s spot Bitcoin ETF recorded its largest daily inflow since mid-May, bringing in $3.6 million. Invesco and Galaxy Digital’s BTCO, along with Ark Invest and 21Shares’ ARKB, also saw inflows of $3 million and $1.84 million, respectively.
The only ETF experiencing net outflows was Grayscale’s GBTC, a trust structure not technically an ETF, with redemptions of $11.5 million. Interestingly, BlackRock’s IBIT, the largest spot Bitcoin ETF by assets under management, reported zero inflows for the fifth consecutive day despite significant trading volume exceeding $520 million on Thursday.
