Status of Spot Bitcoin ETFs
On Thursday, the total daily trading volume of spot Bitcoin ETFs was recorded at $1.13 billion, reflecting a significant decrease from the previous day’s $1.66 billion. Furthermore, BlackRock’s IBIT fund attracted a net inflow of $35.96 million, followed by Bitwise’s BITB fund with $2.65 million and Invesco’s BTCO fund with $2.44 million in net inflows.
Meanwhile, other funds such as Grayscale’s GBTC reported no inflows or outflows. Since their launch in January, these funds have collectively reached a net inflow of $18.47 billion. Despite the decline in trading volume for spot Bitcoin ETFs, the ability of some funds to secure net inflows indicates the lingering effects of market volatility.

The trading volume of spot Ethereum ETFs was noted at $115.66 million on Thursday, down from $197.82 million the previous day. Since their release in July, spot Ethereum ETFs have experienced a total net outflow of $561.05 million, indicating reduced investor interest amid market fluctuations.
