IBIT has been consistently <a href="https://crypto.news/blackrocks-ibit-leads-spot-bitcoin-etfs-with-14-7b-in-aum/" rel="">breaking records</a> and is one of the two ETFs that saw continuous inflows since their launch. According to a <a href="https://x.com/EricBalchunas/status/1777325384209404308" target="_blank" rel="">post</a> from Bloomberg analyst Eric Balchunas on April 8, IBIT saw steady inflows for 59 days, securing it a place in the top 20 all-time longest daily inflows list.
