BlackRock's<\/a> iShares Bitcoin<\/a> Trust ETF (IBIT<\/a>) has become the fastest-growing ETF in history, exceeding $30 billion in assets under management.<\/p>\n

According to Eric Balchunas<\/a>, senior ETF analyst at Bloomberg Intelligence, IBIT reached this milestone in just 293 days, setting a new record. This pace surpasses the JPMorgan Equity Premium Income ETF (JEPI) and major Gold ETFs' growth rates, reaching the $30 billion threshold in 1,272 days and 1,790 days, respectively. CryptoSlate<\/em> predicted<\/a> the ETF's performance would outpace Gold ETFs in January.<\/p>\n

Bloomberg data<\/a> reveals that IBIT's market valuation crossed $30 billion following substantial inflows and Bitcoin's price appreciation on Oct. 29. The fund currently holds more than 417,000 Bitcoin, representing about 2% of the total Bitcoin supply.<\/p>\n

Bitcoin community member Sani observed<\/a> that BlackRock's IBIT could accumulate up to 500,000 Bitcoin by the end of 2024 if its current growth continues. If achieved, this would make IBIT the third-largest Bitcoin holder worldwide, following only Coinbase<\/a> and Binance<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Growing institutional demand<\/h2>\n

The success of BlackRock's ETF aligns with a surge in institutional demand for Bitcoin.<\/p>\n

As of Oct. 29, the ETFs cumulatively reported a daily net inflow of $870 million<\/a>, with BlackRock's IBIT leading the flow. Other leading funds are also experiencing strong interest, with Fidelity's FBTC<\/a> receiving $133.86 million in net inflows, while Bitwise's BITB<\/a> attracted $52.49 million.<\/p>\n

Meanwhile, VanEck's<\/a> HODL, Ark, and 21Shares' ARKB<\/a> recorded inflows of $16.52 million and $12.39 million, respectively. The remaining spot Bitcoin ETFs saw no inflows on that day.<\/p>\n

Nate Geraci, president of the ETF Store, highlighted<\/a> that this level of inflow marks the third-highest daily inflow for spot Bitcoin ETFs since their launch in January.<\/p>\n

According to research firm CryptoQuant, these impressive numbers reflect a broader trend of institutional interest in Bitcoin.<\/p>\n

Ki Young Ju, the firm's founder and CEO, noted<\/a> that over the past year, about 278,000 BTC\u2014primarily from retail investors\u2014flowed into US spot ETFs.<\/p>\n

During the same period, approximately 670,000 BTC moved into “whale” wallets holding over 1,000 BTC, excluding those on exchanges and mining pools. Ju explained that this trend indicates institutional demand in custodial wallets is roughly double that of retail investors.<\/p>\n

This surge highlights the expanding role of institutional investors in the Bitcoin market, with major funds like BlackRock's IBIT setting the pace.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
