Spot Bitcoin Exchange Traded Funds (ETFs) in the United States started the year on a very high note. It’s only been two weeks over a year since the US Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) greenlighted the offering. Last year was filled with mixed memories, ranging from massive inflows to equally huge outflows from these offerings. Spot Bitcoin ETFs Boasts of $121 Bln in AUM On January 24, senior Bloomberg ETF analyst Eric Balchunas pointed out the impressive rally that US spot Bitcoin ETFs have recently recorded. BlackRock’s IBIT, Fidelity’s FBTC, and Ark/21Shares’ ARKB have scored significant milestones as individual funds. IBIT has seen net inflows running to over $2.3 billion YTD. Similarly, FBTC recorded over $1.1 billion in inflows as well. In the year following their launch, US spot Bitcoin ETFs have accumulated up to $40 billion in net inflows. Consequently, the total Assets Under Management for these offerings has topped $121 billion. On January 23, spot Bitcoin ETFs saw net inflows worth $188 million. This marked the sixth consecutive day of positive flows. Only 25 days into the new year, these crypto funds have recorded more than $2 billion in net inflows. The inflows came in at $1 billion on January 17 and more than $805 million on January 21. The recent executive orders signed by President Donald Trump contributed to the slowdown to $188 million recorded by the funds on Thursday. US Bitcoin ETFs Outperform ESG ETFs At this pace, BlackRock’s IBIT , Fidelity’s FBTC, and Grayscale’s GBTC have successfully outperformed Environmental, Social, and Governance (ESG) ETFs in total assets. Vanguard ESG U.S. Stock ETF, iShares Global Clean Energy ETF, SPDR S&P 500 Fossil Fuel Reserves Free ETF, and other leading ESG ETFs collectively hold only $117 billion in AUM. This confirms the US spot Bitcoin ETF’s higher performance. Balchunas even compared them to gold ETFs, citing that net assets held in spot Bitcoin ETFs are now “about the same as gold spot.” More Altcoin ETF Filings on the Horizon Meanwhile, there is a notable surge in the volume of crypto ETF filings, reflecting a shift in the digital asset landscape in the US. Several companies have submitted their altcoin ETF applications to the SEC. This includes requests to list Solana, XRP, Litecoin, TRUMP, and Dogecoin ETFs. While the frequency of application is alarming, it is hardly surprising. Gary Gensler’s exit from the agency has encouraged these companies. They are optimistic that Trump’s administration will develop favorable policies for crypto, a movement that has already commenced.
