BlackRock’s IBIT spot Bitcoin ETF continued to reign over the other funds on Thursday after witnessing its second-largest daily inflows since it began trading on January 11.
The development comes on the heels of Bitcoin’s ongoing bullish momentum, which has seen the crypto asset record its biggest monthly rally since December 2020. As of press time, BTC exchanged hands at $62,494 after gaining 22.67% in the last seven days.

The record positions BlackRock’s fund ahead of Fidelity’s FBTC spot Bitcoin ETF and Ark Invest 21 Shares’ ARKB, which now have 105,196.9 Bitcoins (about $6.4 billion) and 34,223.4 Bitcoins (about $2.1 billion) in AUM, respectively.
According to The ETF Store President Nate Geraci, BlackRock’s IBIT performance in the last seven weeks is impressive, given that only about 150 out of 3,400 exchange-traded funds have over $10 billion in AUM, with a majority having been launched over a decade ago.
Cumulatively, all nine newly launched spot Bitcoin ETFs now hold over 344,000 BTC in assets under management, excluding Grayscale’s converted GBTC fund.
