  • BlackRock's iShares Bitcoin Trust (IBIT) has dominated recent inflows, contributing 75% of the total on April 23.

U.S. spot Bitcoin ETFs have shown strong investor confidence with an 8- to 9-day streak of inflows through April 23 to 25, 2026. Net inflows reached about $2.1 billion in this period, marking the strongest run since October 2025, when Bitcoin approached $126,000.

Daily Highlights

  • On April 23, net inflows totaled $223.21 million, with BlackRock’s iShares Bitcoin Trust (IBIT) contributing $167.49 million, or 75% of the day’s total.
  • April 22 brought in $335.8 million, and several recent days have seen inflows between $200 million and $290 million.
  • Total inflows for April have now surpassed $2.43 billion, turning year-to-date flows positive at around $2 billion.

BlackRock IBIT Dominance

IBIT has taken in over 70% of recent inflows and now holds about 809,870 BTC, valued at roughly $63.7 billion. Altogether, Bitcoin ETFs manage more than $102 billion in assets, with IBIT ranking among the top 1% in industry performance.

Why the Resilience Matters

Even as Bitcoin trades between $77,000 and $78,500 during U.S.-Iran tensions and broader uncertainty, ETFs have absorbed about 19,000 BTC recently. This is nearly nine times the daily mined supply, creating a strong supply shock as institutional demand exceeds new issuance.

All major timeframes—1-day, 1-week, 1-month, 3-month, and year-to-date—now show positive inflows, which is rare and boosts investor confidence. While Grayscale’s GBTC continues to see redemptions, new low-fee options like Morgan Stanley’s MSBT are increasing competition.

Bullish Implications

  • This trend shows that Wall Street is increasingly treating Bitcoin as a key way to diversify portfolios.
  • The limited supply could lead to further price increases if this momentum continues.
  • Total net inflows over time are now close to $58–59 billion.

Keep an eye on next week’s flows, updates on the CLARITY Act, and new macroeconomic data to see if the trend continues. While small outflows are possible, the current streak shows strong conviction in a volatile 2026 market.
