The spot Bitcoin ETF by BlackRock has soared to remarkable heights, recording over $3.19 billion in inflows as of February 5th. This milestone,<a href="https://twitter.com/EricBalchunas/status/1754870450411172323" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow"> unveiled</a> by senior Bloomberg ETF analyst Eric Balchunas, places the Bitcoin ETF in an elite league, trailing only behind broad index funds tracking the S&amp;P 500 and Vanguard’s Total Stock Market ETF.
