Spot Bitcoin ETFs Haul In $921 Million In A Single Week

After a turbulent few days, the US spot Bitcoin ETFs recorded a very robust week, in fact, a three-week streak of net inflows. From mid-April to early May 2025, the ETF inflows totalled nearly $5.8 billion. Notably, over the most recent week alone, 5 – 9 May 2025, the 12 active spot Bitcoin ETFs attracted a staggering $921 million in new investments. Since its launch in 2024, this latest surge in inflows has pushed the total to a record $41.16 billion.

While BlackRock’s iShares Bitcoin Trust (IBIT) continues to dominate with a 19-day inflow streak that added more than $5 billion to its assets, Fidelity’s FBTC and ARK21Shares’ ARKB also clocked in huge numbers. This data comes from SoSoValue. 

Several macroeconomic and geopolitical factors have contributed to this inflow streak. The US struck a trade agreement with the UK and China, reducing global economic uncertainty and boosting investor confidence. Bitcoin broke above the $100,000 mark again, reaching around $104,000 and coming within 4.5% of its all-time high from January 2025.

However, in February 2025, BlackRock’s IBIT experienced its largest single-day outflow to date, with investors pulling out 5,000 BTC, equivalent to $420 million—on February 26. This surpassed the $332 million withdrawal recorded on 2 January 2025.

Speaking at the Token2049 Dubai on 30 April, Robert Mitchnick, Head of Digital Assets at BlackRock, had said, “The flows are back in a big way.” He further stated that seeing who was buying Bitcoin ETFs over the last 16 months was interesting. “At the outset, it certainly was predominantly retail. But then you also have the two other segments that are really important here, which is wealth advisory and institutional,” he explained.
