On Friday, July 12, U.S.-based spot Bitcoin exchange traded funds (ETFs) registered inflows of $310.1 million, their best day since June 5 and for the entire week.
According to Farside, the majority of these inflows were directed to BlackRock’s iShares Bitcoin Trust (IBIT) and Fidelity Wise Origin Bitcoin Fund (FBTC), which saw $120 million and $115.1 million, respectively.
They were followed by Bitwise’s ETF, which registered $28.4 million, while Grayscale Bitcoin Trust (GBTC) experienced only its second day of positive results throughout the week with an inflow of $23 million.
