Spot Bitcoin ETFs recorded a massive influx of over $1 billion in a single day on Thursday, fueled by Bitcoin’s surge to a new all-time high above $118,000.
According to data from Farside, the scale of inflows marked one of the strongest days for the ETF cohort since their U.S. debut.
BlackRock’s iShares Bitcoin Trust (IBIT) led the charge, crossing a milestone $80 billion in assets under management (AUM). That achievement made it the fastest ETF in history to reach that figure—taking just 374 days. For comparison, the previous record-holder, Vanguard’s S&P 500 ETF (VOO), needed more than 1,800 days to hit the same benchmark.
IBIT now ranks as the 21st largest ETF globally by AUM, an extraordinary position for a product launched just over a year ago. The inflows signal deepening confidence in Bitcoin as a portfolio asset and reflect broader institutional embrace of crypto-backed investment vehicles.
