With Monday's inflows, VanEck's offering became the sixth-largest U.S.-listed spot bitcoin ETF, handling more than 6,000 BTC ($440 million) in assets under management and overtaking rivals Invesco (BTCO) and Valkyrie (BRRR), according to BitMEX data.
Spot bitcoin ETFs have enjoyed a streak of strong inflows as the bitcoin price rallied past $72,000 to record highs. Monday brought almost $1 billion of inflows for the nine new offerings combined, more than compensating for $500 million of outflows from the incumbent Grayscale Bitcoin Trust (GBTC), BitMEX data show.
Last week, digital asset fund inflows hit record high of $2.7 billion, with bitcoin products attracting $2.6 billion of all flows, CoinShares reported.
