US Spot Bitcoin ETFs have made a strong comeback, registering their ninth consecutive day of inflows on Wednesday, July 17. Over the past week, these ETFs have accumulated significant amounts of Bitcoin, pushing the BTC price above $65,000.
On Wednesday, the nine spot Bitcoin ETFs saw $53 million in total inflows with BlackRock’s IBIT leading the show with another $110 million in inflows. Interestingly, the net inflows dropped significantly from more than $400 million on the previous day, Tuesday. With over $57 million of outflows, Grayscale’s GBTC played the major spoilsport on Wednesday.
Following yesterday’s inflows, the total BTC holdings of US Bitcoin ETFs have crossed 900,000. considering the massive inflows coming into Bitcoin recently, there’s every possibility that we may see the 1 million BTC holdings by the month-end.

Amid the recent performance, the total Bitcoin ETF inflows since inception crossed $16 billion for the very first time. This is considering the total outflows from GBTC over the past few months. BlackRock’s IBIT has been the torchbearer leading most of the inflows. Just in the last eight trading sessions, the total IBIT inflows have been more than $1 billion setting up a major milestone.
During the second quarter, the institutional holdings in US BTC ETFs have shot up by a staggering 80%. If this momentum continues going ahead, the next major milestone is not very far off.

Other overseas markets like Hong Kong have also seen strong participation with its BTC holdings crossing over 5,000 BTC within a few months of launch. Obviously, these are smaller markets in comparison to the liquidity that the US market offers.
