Spot Bitcoin ETFs Achieve Second-Highest Record

According to Bloomberg analysts Eric Balchunas and James Seyffart, the $3.24 billion weekly inflow into Bitcoin ETF created a “intense momentum.” Nate Geraci noted that total net inflows have surpassed $60 billion since launch, making it the second-strongest week to date. 

BlackRock’s IBIT and ETHA products received $10 billion in inflows within just a month, quickly climbing the ranks. Experts highlighted that U.S. government shutdown risks and a weaker dollar drove investors toward safe-haven assets, further boosting demand for Bitcoin ETF. 

Bitcoin hit ATHs last night after the ETFs went wild last week with +$3.3b in a week, $24b for year (also notable $IBIT and $ETHA w $10b for month, rank 3rd and 4th overall) and now $60b lifetime (new high water mark). Pretty good. No way @WhalePanda can still be pissed, right? pic.twitter.com/xHH3yjp4U7
