Spot Bitcoin ETF continue to gather momentum as Farside UK data reveals net inflows of $31.6 million on Tuesday, April 23. This surge was led by industry giants like BlackRock’s iShares Bitcoin Trust (IBIT) and Ark 21Shares Bitcoin ETF (ARKB). However, Grayscale’s GBTC Bitcoin ETF witnessed higher outflows on Tuesday.
Spot Bitcoin ETF Record Positive Flows For Second Consecutive Day
The Blackrock IBIT ETF boasted inflows of $37.9 million. Meanwhile, the ARKB Bitcoin ETF registered a net inflow of $33.3 million. Furthermore, the Bitwise BTC ETF (BITB) follows closely with $23.2 million in inflows, showcasing sustained investor interest in crypto exposure through regulated investment vehicles.
However, Fidelity Wise Bitcoin ETF (FBTC) faced a challenging day. FBTC recorded only $4.4 million in inflows, signaling a temporary setback for the fund. Moreover, Grayscale Bitcoin Trust (GBTC) experienced a notable uptick in outflows, surging to $66.9 million from $35 million recorded Monday.
In addition, the net inflows for the 11 Spot Bitcoin ETFs declined by nearly 50% from the week’s inception. On Monday, these ETFs garnered an influx of $62.2 million, largely influenced by the decrease in FBTC inflows and soaring GBTC outflows.
Nonetheless, for three consecutive days these ETFs bought over 100% of total BTC mined in a day after Halving. Since last Friday, the net purchase of Bitcoin ETFs includes 2,177 BTC. Whilst, excluding the GBTC outflows, the purchase amounts to 4,468 BTC.
Meanwhile, the Bitcoin price maintains a sideways trajectory. However, the BTC ETFs remain active participants despite the sideways action. Notably, Tether’s continued accumulation of Bitcoin and El Salvador’s daily acquisition of 1 BTC are expected to positively influence the BTC price.
