$BTC #ETFs Cross $50 Billion Milestone as Institutional Demand Accelerates
Spot $BTC exchange-traded funds surpassed $50 billion in cumulative net inflows Wednesday for the first time.
Daily net inflows reached $218 million across 12 funds, with #BlackRock's IBIT leading at $125.5 million in fresh capital.
Seven out of 12 $ funds reported positive flows, including #ARK and 21Shares' ARKB with $56.96 million inflows.
The milestone marks a "defining moment" in Bitcoin's institutionalization, according to $BTC Markets analyst Rachael Lucas.
$BTC updated its all-time high record by rising to $112,152 on Wednesday, currently trading at $110,990.
Weeks of consistent inflows confirm steady pipeline from asset managers, corporate treasuries, and wealth platforms entering the market.
Geopolitical tension and #Trump's push for aggressive interest rate cuts triggered a surge in demand for risk assets.
Spot $ETH ETFs recorded $211.32 million in positive flows Wednesday, bringing cumulative net inflows to $4.72 billion total.
