Blackrock: Son Etf Bitcoin Ishares flies to $ 100 billion and beats historic records

Less than two years after its launch, ETF Ishares Bitcoin Trust (IBIT) of BlackRock is one of the greatest successes of society. The fund now approaches $ 100 billion in management assets, and is among the most profitable ETFs in BlackRock. Despite the company's considerable experience in the management of negotiated funds on the stock market, none has experienced such rapid growth. The solid incomes generated by Ibit have already exceeded those of several historic Blackrock funds, illustrating the growing acceptance of bitcoin and cryptocurrencies in consumer investment.

ETF Bitcoin Ibit exceeds the 12 best ETFs in BlackRock

Eric Balchunas, main analyst of ETF at Bloomberg, reports that Ibit now generates approximately $ 244.5 million in annual income. This amount exceeds the gains of two emblematic ETFs of BlackRock, the Ishares Russell 1000 Growth ETF (IWF) and the Ishares MSCI Eafe (EFA), of about $ 25 million. With nearly $ 219 million in annual income for IWF and EFA, Ibit thus becomes the most profitable fund of the company.

What makes this fulfillment remarkable is the youth of the fund. All the other Blackrock ETFs being among the 12 best income producers have been around for over a decade, while Ibit has reached this position in less than two years. Its meteoric progression illustrates the explosion of demand for Bitcoin, both on the institutional side and private investors.

Balchunas also stresses that the fund has accumulated almost $ 97.8 billion in active in just 435 days. If this dynamic continues, Ibit is on the way to becoming the fastest ETF in history to cross the $ 100 billion mark. By way of comparison, the S&P 500 Indication Fund from Vanguard (VOO) had taken 2,011 days, more than five years, to reach this same level.

Record incoming flows and sustainable craze

Ibit's rise in power is accompanied by supported incoming flows and an increasing interest in investors. The fund remains the main ETF Bitcoin “Spot” in the United States and captures the majority of new capital flows on this market. Here is an overview of his recent performances:

• Last week, the US Bitcoin ETF recorded $ 3.2 billion in incoming flows, including $ 1.8 billion for Ibit, its second largest week since its launch.
• In the last quarter, Ibit exceeded the platform deribit of Coinbase Global to become the largest place of exchange of Bitcoin options.
• ETF Ishares Bitcoin Trust has also recorded additional entries $ 970 million on Monday And 899.4 million Tuesday, continuing its momentum up.

The interest of investors for ETF BTC has been reinforced by a more favorable regulatory environment, the Trump administration adopting a positive position on cryptocurrencies and signaling its intention to establish the United States as a major center for Crypto activity, which has encouraged both investors and institutions to increase their exposure to bitcoin via regulated products.

At the same time, analysts point out that the Bitcoin price, which reached around $ 126,000 on Monday, was supported by massive entries from ETF. At the same time, companies are increasing their Bitcoin assets, and some countries add this digital asset to their reserves, which strengthens global demand and helps maintain market momentum.

Blackrock plans a new Bitcoin income fund

Building on the success of Ibit, BlackRock plans to launch a new fund focused on Bitcoin called Bitcoin Premium ETF, which will generate yields by selling covered purchase options on BTC term contracts and collecting premiums while offering exposure to the BTC via these contracts.

To facilitate this new fund, BlackRock has filed a request to establish a fiduciary company in Delaware, reporting the company's projects to extend its range of BTC -based products and strengthen the infrastructure of its products in digital assets.
