U.S. spot Bitcoin exchange-traded funds (ETFs) continued their strong run on Thursday, logging a fifth consecutive day of net inflows as institutional interest in regulated BTC products remained firm.
According to Farside data, the total net inflows reached $442 million across the 12 spot ETFs, with BlackRock’s IBIT once again leading the pack. The fund attracted $327.3 million in fresh capital, while ARK Invest and 21Shares’ ARKB followed with $97 million. Bitwise’s BITB added $10.2 million, and Invesco’s BTCO saw $7.5 million in net inflows.
The streak follows two blockbuster sessions earlier in the week, with inflows of $936.4 million on Tuesday and $916.9 million on Wednesday. Despite Thursday’s healthy inflow figures, total ETF trading volume dropped to $2 billion from $4 billion the previous day.
The sustained inflows underscore persistent institutional demand for Bitcoin exposure via regulated channels. Analysts suggest this trend may signal growing investor confidence in Bitcoin ETFs as long-term vehicles, even amid broader market uncertainty.
With continued momentum and capital flows, Bitcoin ETFs are proving to be a key force in the current market cycle.
