  • The iShares Bitcoin ETF led flows with $871 million, dominating both weekly and year-to-date inflows.
  • Total year-to-date crypto ETF flows turned positive at $2.3 billion, driven primarily by Bitcoin funds.
  • Fidelity’s FBTC posted solid weekly inflows but remains the largest laggard on a year-to-date basis.

Crypto exchange-traded funds (ETFs) pulled in $1.1 billion last week, logging their biggest weekly inflows since January, with iShares Bitcoin ETF (IBIT) leading the charge, year-to-date flows turning positive.

According to CoinShares’ weekly report, IBIT drew around $871 million in inflows over the past week, making it the only crypto ETF to post triple-digit gains. The fund also leads on a monthly and year-to-date basis, with $719 million and $1.72 billion in inflows, respectively.

“Another solid week for the bitcoin ETFs, they are now officially positive in YTD flows,” said Bloomberg analyst Eric Balchunas in a post on X. “Wasn’t a huge hole but they dug out of it like bosses despite an upwardly challenged price.”

Bitcoin Funds Drive Weekly ETF Surge

Last week’s inflows pushed year-to-date flows back into positive territory at $2.3 billion. Bitcoin (BTC) ETFs led with $1.9 billion in inflows, while flows into Ethereum (ETH) ETFs remained in the red by $130 million. Ripple (XRP) ETFs recorded $178 million in inflows, and Solana (SOL) funds drew $218 million.

IBIT’s price fell  3.2% at market open on Monday amid weakness in the broader cryptocurrency market. Bitcoin (BTC) edged 0.1% lower in the past 24 hours to just under $71,000. On Stocktwits, retail sentiment around IBIT trended in ‘bearish’ territory over the past day, while sentiment around Bitcoin fell to ‘neutral’ from the ‘bullish’ zone.

The Fidelity Wise Origin Bitcoin Fund (FBTC) came in second with inflows of around $98 million. The fund has seen $11 million in monthly inflows, but continues to face the largest year-to-date outflows among Bitcoin (BTC) ETFs at around $1.58 billion. Cathie Wood’s ARK 21Shares (ARKB) and the Grayscale Bitcoin Trust (GBTC) have also posted outflows so far this year.
