Nate Geraci, president of ETF Store, noted the scale of this inflow, stating on X, “Out of 500 ETFs launched in 2024, less than 25 have taken this amount in for the entire year.”
Bitcoin Price Rise
The excitement surrounding these ETFs is not only fueled by rising BTC prices but also by the Federal Reserve’s recent interest rate cut, which has provided further optimism for Bitcoin investors. As of writing, BTC was trading around $65,470, reflecting a 1.4% increase in the last 24 hours and a 9% gain in the past month.
Bloomberg ETF analyst Eric Balchunas noted the rapid accumulation of Bitcoin by these funds, stating that spot Bitcoin ETFs are “92% of the way to owning 1 million BTC and 83% of the way to passing Satoshi as the top holder.”
