ARK 21Shares’ spot Bitcoin (<a href="https://cointelegraph.com/bitcoin-price">BTC</a>) exchange-traded fund (ETF) managed to notch a record $201.8 million of inflows on Wednesday, almost quintupling its average daily inflows as Bitcoin just fell short of reaching $72,000.
Preliminary <a href="https://farside.co.uk/?p=997" target="_blank" rel="noopener nofollow">data</a> from Farside Investors revealed that on March 27, the ARK 21Shares Bitcoin ETF's daily inflow was a four-fold increase from its daily average of $43.9 million <a href="https://cointelegraph.com/news/sec-spot-bitcoin-etf-approvals">since its launch on Jan. 11.</a>
It also nearly tripled the amount from the previous day when ARK Invest saw inflows of $73.6 million, while there were no recorded inflows on March 25.

Meanwhile, the Valkyrie Bitcoin ETF (BRRR) witnessed $5.1 million in inflows, the Invesco Galaxy Bitcoin ETF (BTCO) saw $4.8 million in inflows, the Franklin Bitcoin ETF (EZBC) had $4 million in inflows and the VanEck Bitcoin ETF (HODL) noted $1.9 million.
Both the WisdomTree Bitcoin ETF (BTCW) and Fidelity Investments Bitcoin ETF (FBTC) reported $1.5 million in inflows — all single-digit inflows. However, BlackRock data has yet to come in at the time of writing.
It comes as Bitcoin hit $71,670 before falling below the $69,000 support level before closing the day at $69,698. At the time of publication, Bitcoin’s current price is $69,464, as per CoinMarketCap <a href="https://coinmarketcap.com/currencies/bitcoin/" target="_blank" rel="noopener nofollow">data</a>.
Crypto commentators, meanwhile, have begun to argue that investors are too fixated on Bitcoin’s short-term price fluctuations rather than considering the broader perspective.
In a March 28 <a href="https://x.com/0xGumshoe/status/1773120881314742545?s=20" target="_blank" rel="noopener nofollow">post</a> on X, crypto researcher Gumshoe informed his 28,900 followers that investors are opting for a micro perspective, focusing on daily price closures rather than considering the actual influx of funds into Bitcoin.
“Bitcoin ETFs seeing ATH inflows and people are panicking over the daily close of a candle,” he stated.

In a March 27 <a href="https://x.com/Matt_Hougan/status/1772704864872583205?s=20" target="_blank" rel="noopener nofollow">post</a> on X, chief investment officer of Bitwise Matt Hougan stated that the majority of professional investors are still unable to buy Bitcoin ETFs, especially in the United Kingdom where “the FCA is still broadly aligned against crypto.”
“The truth is, most professional investors still cannot buy bitcoin ETFs. That will change through a series of 100+ individual due diligence processes over the next two years,” he stated.
Popular crypto commentator Bitcoin Munger told his 31,800 followers he <a href="https://x.com/bitcoinmunger/status/1772960994962141459?s=20" target="_blank" rel="noopener nofollow">believes</a> the next $13 billion of inflows could “add $50K-$70K or more to the price.” 
On March 18, Cointelegraph reported that a total of $13.2 billion in <a href="https://cointelegraph.com/news/us-bitcoin-spot-etfs-see-another-record-inflow">new capital has flowed into investment products</a> such as spot Bitcoin ETFs year-to-date.
