Bitcoin ETFs have seen their best day of trading since the start of May, with smaller funds enjoying healthy inflows.
Fidelity's Wise Origin Bitcoin Fund (FBTC), the second-largest spot ETF in the U.S., saw its net assets rise by $188 million in just 24 hours, per data from SoSoValue.
Meanwhile, the ARK 21Shares Bitcoin ETF (ARKB)—in fourth place after the Grayscale Bitcoin Trust—clocked inflows of $155 million, with the two funds between them accounting for more than half of the funds invested across all spot BTC ETFs on Monday.
Total inflows for the day stood at $667.4 million, with Bitcoin trading above $100,000 for 12 consecutive days and securing its highest weekly close in history.
At time of publication, Bitcoin is trading at $105,137, up 2.1% on the day, per data from CoinGecko.
As usual, BlackRock's iShares Bitcoin Trust (IBIT)—which is bigger than Wall Street’s other 11 BTC ETFs combined—took the lion’s share of inflows, pulling in $305.9 million of investment yesterday. That takes IBIT’s total net assets to $66.9 billion, equivalent to about 3.2% of Bitcoin's market capitalization.
Beyond BTC's bullish momentum, hedge funds are seeking to capitalize on the difference between Bitcoin's spot price and long-dated futures, with yields from the basis trade proving attractive.
IBIT's inflows so far this year stand at $8.3 billion, making it the sixth-most popular fund on Wall Street, according to Bloomberg senior ETF analyst Eric Balchunas. That's streets ahead of the SDPR Gold Trust in 17th place, despite the precious metal outperforming Bitcoin since the start of the year.
Also notable leaderboard action: $IBIT has climbed up to 6th spot and is now nearly DOUBLE the inflow into $GLD which has slid to 17th, despite gold doubling bitcoin's performance YTD altho that prob won't last. pic.twitter.com/HYTfC2SZZP

While gold prices have accelerated by more than 22% so far in 2025—fueled by uncertainty over U.S. President Donald Trump's tariffs—BTC's gains currently stand at a more modest 12%.
One notable absence from the Bitcoin ETF space has been Vanguard, which has long regarded crypto as "more of a speculation than an investment" that doesn't belong in investor portfolios.
The price of gold fell to a monthly low on Wednesday, underscoring investors’ increased appetite for risk-on assets like Bitcoin amid cooling trade tensions between the U.S. and China. Gold’s price has fallen 9% to $3,185 per ounce, from an all-time high of $3,500 in mid-April, according to Trading Economics. Over the same period of time, Bitcoin’s price has surged 17% to $103,600 from $88,200, according to CoinGecko data. The divergence between gold and Bitcoin has grown more apparent as the U....
Balchunas believes the asset management giant is unlikely to perform a U-turn and launch a fund of its own—but he suggested that Vanguard may allow existing ETFs to be traded on its platform if Bitcoin continues to rise.
Should Bitcoin's price hit the $150,000-$200,000 price range, he wrote, "they gonna get sick of being asked about it by customers and their new CEO is one of IBIT's parents."
Bitcoin Core developers have confirmed plans to remove long-standing data storage restrictions in the upcoming version 30 release, scheduled for October 30. The change essentially eliminates Bitcoin's current 80-byte limit on OP_RETURN outputs, which are special transaction fields that allow users to embed arbitrary data on the blockchain. Under the new rule, transactions can include multiple OP_RETURN outputs, each potentially containing up to 4MB of data. “Bitcoin Core is just one protocol imp...
The UK government has announced plans to begin trialling self-driving taxi services on its roads, just as there’s been blow-back in LA where several self-driving Waymo cars were torched. Several vehicles were set on fire Sunday during a protest against the U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement raids in Los Angeles and the Trump administration’s deployment of National Guard into the region. The initial plan in London, as put forward by the Department for Transport, involves a limited number of...
OpenAI's ChatGPT, APIs, and Sora video service, have been experiencing a worldwide outage for the past three hours, according to the company. That would mean the issues started around 3 a.m. EST. "Some users are experiencing elevated error rates and latency across the listed services. We are continuing to investigate the issue," the company wrote on its status website. The only OpenAI service that's currently working is its Playground, which allows users to more finely tune and experiment with A...
