Even in the face of rising geopolitical unrest, investor confidence in Bitcoin remains rock-solidâespecially through institutional channels.
On Wednesday, Bitcoin spot ETFs marked their 8th consecutive day of net inflows, raking in a hefty $388.3 million in fresh capital. The clear market leader? BlackRockâs IBIT, which pulled in a staggering $278.9 million, followed closely by Fidelityâs FBTC with $104.4 million.
đĄ This wave of inflows comes at a time when global headlines are dominated by uncertaintyâfrom military escalations to diplomatic fractures. Yet, $BTC remained remarkably stable around the $105,000 range, showcasing resilience and maturity as an asset class.
This pattern isnât new. Historically, during global shocks or international crises, Bitcoin has shown a brief drawdown of 5â7%, only to stabilize and recover shortly after. According to Santiment, this behavior underscores growing institutional trust in BTC as a long-term hedge rather than a speculative risk.
đ§ Here's what's more impressive:
đč Total ETF inflows since April 17 now sit at a mind-blowing $11.2 billion.
đč Only 8 days of outflows have been recorded during this stretchâsignaling strong conviction.
đč Cumulative inflows into the 118 registered BTC ETF products have surpassed $46.3 billion since launch.
But it's not all green across the boardâŠ
đ Grayscale's products continue to see steady outflows. The Grayscale Bitcoin Trust ETF (GBTC) shed $16.4 million, while its smaller siblingâthe Grayscale Bitcoin Mini Trustâlost $10.1 million. The exits reflect investor migration toward lower-fee and more transparent alternatives like IBIT and FBTC.
What Does This Mean for the Market?
Institutional interest in Bitcoin is no longer just a trendâitâs becoming a cornerstone of global asset allocation strategies. As macro uncertainty grows, so does the appeal of hard digital assets like BTC. ETFs are making it easier for traditional capital to access Bitcoin exposure, and that pipeline is now flowing stronger than ever.
With ETF momentum building and Bitcoin holding its ground amid turbulence, the next leg up might not be a question of ifâbut when.
