LATEST: U.S. Spot Bitcoin ETFs See Second Highest Daily Inflows, Totaling $886.75 Million

U.S. spot bitcoin exchange-traded funds (ETFs) recorded their second highest daily net inflows on June 4, attracting $886.75 million. This influx is second only to the March 12 peak of $1.05 billion. Leading the charge, Fidelity’s FBTC saw the largest net inflows at $379 million, followed by BlackRock’s IBIT with $274 million. To date, cumulative net inflows stand at $14.85 billion.

Additional contributions came from Ark Invest and 21Shares’ ARKB, which recorded $139 million, and Bitwise’s BITB with $61 million. Grayscale’s GBTC drew $28 million, marking its third largest net inflows since conversion. Other ETFs from VanEck and Valkyrie saw single-digit inflows. These inflows marked the 16th consecutive day of positive net inflows for the 11 spot bitcoin ETFs, just shy of the record streak from January to mid-February.

Since their inception, spot bitcoin ETFs have amassed a total net inflow of $14.57 billion. Despite the recent surge, the total volume of flows remains below the March peak. This trend underscores the growing investor confidence and interest in bitcoin ETFs as a robust investment vehicle.

NEW: Spot Ethereum ETFs May Absorb 1 Million ETH in Five Months, K33 Forecasts

In a recent report by K33 Research, analysts project that new spot Ethereum exchange-traded funds (ETFs) in the United States could garner between $3.1 billion and $4.8 billion in net inflows within their initial five months of trading. Drawing comparisons with Bitcoin, the analysts anticipate significant investment interest in Ethereum, highlighting the steady downtrend in the portion of ether’s circulating supply held in investment vehicles since the 2021 crypto bull market peak.

Globally, existing Ethereum exchange-traded products (ETPs) hold a substantial portion of assets under management compared to Bitcoin counterparts, with figures around 28.2% excluding U.S. spot Bitcoin ETFs. Despite U.S. Ethereum futures ETFs representing just 5% of their Bitcoin counterparts, analysts attribute this to launch timing rather than indicative of investment demand.

Approval for eight spot Ethereum ETFs from firms like BlackRock and Fidelity has been granted by the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission, pending effective S-1 registration statements before trading commencement. Analysts remain optimistic, citing BlackRock CEO Larry Fink’s influence on Ethereum’s potential, foreseeing a setup for asset strength throughout the summer.
