Market Outlook: What to Expect from Bitcoin ETFs in the Future?

There are differing opinions about how much spot BTC ETFs could earn. According to a Reuters report, while Standard Chartered analysts have predicted that the ETFs may collect $50 billion to $100 billion this year alone, Bernstein analysts predicted that flows will gradually increase to reach $10 billion in 2024. Additionally, Inflows into Blackrock’s IBIT have skyrocketed to position it in the top 7% of all ETFs by market capitalization. This is an exceptionally robust second wind for a conventionally new offering, according to many market analysts. The market has now valued all recently introduced exchange-traded funds (ETFs) to deliver strong short-term returns and long-term sustainability as investments.
