7/10/2025 – U.S. Bitcoin ETFs See $1.2B Inflows, BlackRock’s IBIT Driving Momentum
U.S. Bitcoin ETFs recorded $1.2 billion in net inflows on Monday, marking the seventh instance where inflows exceeded the $1 billion mark, according to Farside data. The majority of these funds, $970 million, flowed into BlackRock’s iShares Bitcoin Trust (IBIT).
Historically, such large inflows have often aligned with short-term Bitcoin highs:
- March 12, 2024: Bitcoin hit a local peak of $74,000 two days later.
- November 2024: $1B inflows preceded a rally above $100,000, topping in December.
- January 17, 2025: A $1B inflow came just before a high of $109,000.
- July 10–11, 2025: Consecutive $1B inflows preceded a $123,000 peak on July 14.
Bitcoin surged past $126,000 on Monday before stabilizing near $124,000, as investors assess whether a new record high is forming.
IBIT Becomes BlackRock’s Most Profitable ETF
Eric Balchunas, senior ETF analyst at Bloomberg, highlighted that IBIT now ranks as BlackRock’s most profitable ETF, generating an estimated $244.5 million in annual revenue on nearly $100 billion in assets under management (AUM). The ETF reached the $100B milestone in 435 days, compared with 2,011 days for Vanguard’s S&P 500 ETF (VOO), making it BlackRock’s fastest-growing fund.
The strong inflows reflect growing institutional appetite for Bitcoin exposure through ETFs, signaling continued confidence in the digital asset market as Bitcoin trades near record levels.
