Spot Bitcoin exchange-traded funds in the United States clocked their second-biggest day of inflows in history as Bitcoin notched a new record high on Monday.&nbsp;
The 11 US-based spot Bitcoin ETFs saw a cumulative $1.18 billion in inflows on the day, second only to Nov. 7, 2024, when the ETFs raked in $1.37 billion after Donald Trump won the election to become the next President of the United States.
The bumper day for the ETFs, which coincided with Bitcoin’s <a href="https://cointelegraph.com/news/gold-hits-milestone-4000-ath-what-it-means-bitcoin" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">new all-time high</a> of over $126,000, brings October’s total inflow to $3.47 billion across just four trading days, <a href="https://www.coinglass.com/bitcoin-etf" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow" target="_blank">according</a> to CoinGlass.&nbsp;
Meanwhile, Bitcoin ETFs have cumulatively raked in around $60 billion since their launch, Bloomberg’s ETF analyst James Seyffart <a href="https://x.com/JSeyff/status/1975244499468140681" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow" target="_blank">said</a> on Monday on X.&nbsp;
The massive demand for Bitcoin ETPs underscores the significant influence of institutional investors in this bull market, with retail investors reportedly still on the sidelines.&nbsp;

According to the official <a href="https://www.blackrock.com/us/individual/products/333011/ishares-bitcoin-trust" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow" target="_blank">website</a>, IBIT has an AUM of almost $98.5 billion in Bitcoin and cash, and it <a href="https://cointelegraph.com/explained/blackrock-quietly-accumulated-3-of-all-bitcoin-heres-what-that-means" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">holds</a> 783,767 BTC.&nbsp;
The world’s largest ETF, the Vanguard S&amp;P 500 ETF, took more than 2,000 days to hit that mark, and IBIT is about to do it in under 450 days, said Geraci. Only 18 of over 4,500 trading ETFs have over $100 billion in AUM, he added.
