U.S. Bitcoin ETFs Draw $1B in New Inflows, a Level Seen Ahead of Six Prior Local Highs

7/10/2025 – U.S. Bitcoin ETFs Draw $1.2B Inflows, BlackRock’s IBIT Leads the Charge

U.S. Bitcoin exchange-traded funds (ETFs) saw a $1.2 billion net inflow on Monday, marking the seventh time inflows have topped $1 billion, according to Farside data. BlackRock’s iShares Bitcoin Trust (IBIT) captured the majority of activity, with $970 million flowing in.

Historically, such inflows have often coincided with short-term Bitcoin peaks:

• March 12, 2024: Bitcoin peaked near $74,000 two days later.
• November 2024: $1B inflows preceded a rally above $100,000, topping in December.
• January 17, 2025: Large inflow preceded a local high of $109,000.
• July 10–11, 2025: Consecutive $1B inflows preceded a peak of $123,000 on July 14.

On Monday, Bitcoin briefly surpassed $126,000 before consolidating around $124,000, keeping investors alert for potential new highs.

IBIT: BlackRock’s Fastest-Growing and Most Profitable ETF
Bloomberg ETF analyst Eric Balchunas noted that IBIT is now BlackRock’s most profitable ETF, generating roughly $244.5 million annually from nearly $100 billion in assets under management (AUM). Impressively, IBIT reached $100B AUM in just 435 days, compared with 2,011 days for Vanguard’s S&P 500 ETF (VOO).

The surge in inflows underlines strong institutional demand for Bitcoin ETFs and highlights IBIT’s pivotal role as a gateway for professional investors seeking exposure to digital assets amid record Bitcoin levels.
