Bitcoin ETFs Hit $40 Billion Inflows, Setting Historic Crypto Record
Spot Bitcoin ETFs have attracted over $40 billion in lifetime inflows, with significant contributions on May 8, 2025. This reflects ongoing investor interest in Bitcoin through regulated funds, indicating increased confidence from both individual savers and large companies. Since their launch in March 2024, inflows have steadily risen from approximately $12 billion to nearly $35 billion by March 2025, surpassing $40 billion just two months later. Large investors, including asset managers and hedge funds, prefer ETFs for Bitcoin exposure due to added safety and regulatory scrutiny. Social media reactions highlight Bitcoin's dominance in the market, although concerns exist about potential price slowdowns affecting ETF flows. Future ETF inflows may serve as a sentiment gauge for investor confidence in Bitcoin.
