Spot Bitcoin ETFs Record Strong Net Inflow of $216M as Investors Buy the Dip
Spot Bitcoin exchange-traded funds (ETFs) are experiencing a surge in investor interest, with a combined net inflow of $216.33 million reported on Tuesday. This marks the third consecutive day of positive flows for these funds.
According to data compiled by SoSoValue, BlackRock’s IBIT emerged as the leader in inflows, attracting $121.03 million, followed closely by Fidelity’s FBTC with $90.95 million. Ark Invest and 21Shares’ ARKB also contributed significantly with $43.3 million, while VanEck’s bitcoin fund saw $3.27 million in inflows.
However, Grayscale’s GBTC, the second largest bitcoin ETF, reported outflows amounting to $37.5 million, and Bitwise’s BITB noted net outflows of $4.72 million.
Overall, trading activity across the 11 spot Bitcoin funds reached $1.19 billion on Tuesday alone, highlighting robust market participation. Since their inception in January, these ETFs have collectively accumulated a substantial net inflow of $15.27 billion.
The positive market performance of Bitcoin has been paralleled by the influx of institutional investments, with its price climbing 1.58% over the past 24 hours to $58,154. This upward movement followed a brief dip to around $54,000 last Friday.
Analysts view recent selling pressures as creating attractive buying opportunities for investors, with CoinShares reporting a substantial $441 million influx into digital asset investment products for the week. July historically proves bullish for cryptocurrencies, with a median return of 9%, a trend traders anticipate continuing.
In related news, Australia’s second spot Bitcoin ETF is set to hit the market, with blockchain-focused asset manager DigitalX receiving regulatory approval to launch its ETF. This approval makes DigitalX the second company to offer a Bitcoin ETF on the Australian Securities Exchange (ASX), following VanEck’s recent approval.
As the market continues to evolve, investors are closely monitoring the performance of Bitcoin and the growing interest in ETFs as a way to gain exposure to the digital asset market.
