Two days ago, BlackRock’s flagship Bitcoin ETF, IBIT, pulled in a stunning $643 million in a single day. That marked its best performance since January. Bitcoin’s price soared past $92,000 at the same time, driven by positive news from the Trump administration on U.S.-China trade. The surge in IBIT helped drive total spot Bitcoin ETF inflows to $916 million for the day, highlighting renewed demand for Bitcoin ETF among institutional investors. BlackRock’s big win also boosted momentum across the entire sector. IBIT’s dominance continues, managing $53.77 billion in assets and earning “Best New ETF” honors along the way.
Bitcoin ETFs Enjoy First Full Week of Inflows in Five Weeks
Fast forward to today—momentum has only grown stronger. U.S. spot Bitcoin ETFs logged over $3 billion in inflows this week, the first full week of positive flows in five weeks. On April 25 alone, the 11 spot Bitcoin ETFs gathered $380 million. Analysts like Eric Balchunas called it a “Bitcoin bender,” noting how quickly sentiment turned from cold to blazing hot. With Bitcoin ETFs seeing such swift inflow, April is now a positive month despite a rocky start. Macro uncertainty, it seems, isn’t stopping Bitcoin.

Bitcoin ETFs Break Records After Market Turmoil
According to SosoValue, U.S. spot Bitcoin ETFs officially raked in $3.06 billion as of April 25. This is their first consecutive weekly inflow streak since March. Just a few weeks ago, these products were bleeding—recording $713 million in outflows by mid-April. Now, thanks to a massive sentiment turnaround, Bitcoin ETFs are back in full force. Bitcoin’s price jump to around $94,000 has definitely fueled the optimism. Risk assets are back on the menu, and Bitcoin ETF is leading the feast.
BlackRock’s IBIT Dominates While BTC Marches Higher
BlackRock’s IBIT remains the star of the show. Winning “Best New ETF” and “Crypto ETP of the Year” only adds to its powerful narrative. On April 23, it contributed heavily to the day’s nearly $1 billion total inflows. Institutional interest keeps climbing, with ARK Invest raising Bitcoin’s “bull case” price target to $2.4 million by 2030. Meanwhile, IBIT’s total assets continue to swell, helping push Bitcoin ETFs’ total managed assets over $109 billion. BlackRock’s vision for IBIT becoming “the biggest ETF in the world” doesn’t seem far-fetched now.
Bitcoin ETFs Signal Bullish Sentiment as BTC Price Eyes $95K
Bitcoin ETFs’ renewed inflows highlight a broader bullish trend in crypto markets. With Bitcoin holding above $94,000 and institutional investors piling in, sentiment is strong. Other cryptocurrencies like ETH, XRP, and SOL are also catching the wave. As the U.S. dollar weakens and Federal Reserve rate cuts loom, Bitcoin looks poised to climb even higher. If this pace keeps up, Bitcoin ETF inflows could continue setting new records—and Bitcoin itself might not stay under $100K for long.
