BlackRock’s Bitcoin ETF Sees Record $1.12 Billion Inflow as Investor Interest Soars

BlackRock’s iShares Bitcoin Trust (IBIT) attracted a massive $1.12 billion in a single day, setting a new record and surpassing its previous peak of $872 million.

This surge reflects growing investor confidence in Bitcoin , bolstered by BlackRock’s reputation and Bitcoin’s recent price rally. On the same day, the ETF saw over $4 billion in trading volume.

Crypto analyst Rachael Lucas attributed this rise to institutional trust, FOMO, and delayed capital flows following recent price gains.

The U.S. presidential election results, with pro-crypto candidate Donald Trump winning , further boosted market optimism, pushing Bitcoin to a new high. The Federal Reserve’s recent interest rate cut added to the appeal for investors.

Ethereum ETFs likewise benefited, seeing a spike in volume and inflows following the election, with Thursday’s volume reaching $466 million—far above the usual range.
