US Spot Bitcoin ETFs Witness Record Inflows Amid Price Surge

On October 29, US spot Bitcoin exchange-traded funds (ETFs) experienced a record-breaking net inflow of $870 million, the highest daily inflow since June 5. This surge was led by BlackRock’s iShares Bitcoin Trust (IBIT), which alone saw an impressive $643 million inflow.

The influx of capital coincided with a powerful rally in Bitcoin prices, which soared to $72,390, just 2% shy of its all-time high. The daily trading volume for BlackRock’s Bitcoin ETF reached $3.35 billion, marking its highest level in over six months.

Bloomberg ETF analyst Eric Balchunas attributed this spike to a “FOMO” (fear of missing out) wave among investors1. Other major Bitcoin ETFs, including the Grayscale Bitcoin Trust (GBTC), also saw substantial inflows, contributing to a combined trading volume of $4.64 billion across all spot Bitcoin ETFs in the US.
