Bitcoin (BTC) ETPs Register Biggest Seven-Day Inflow Since July

Bitcoin ETFs have purchased around 48 days of the mined bitcoin supply in the past four trading days.

Bitcoin (BTC) exchange-traded products (ETPs) have seen a large seven-day cumulative inflow of 25,675 BTC ($1.74 billion), marking the biggest seven-day tally since July, bold.report showed on Oct. 17.

The inflows come as BTC's price rally continues, now up 15% from the Oct. 10 lows and just 8% away from the all-time high hit in March, according to CoinDesk data. The rally is being driven by several factors, including expectations for Fed rate cuts and rising odds of pro-crypto Donald Trump winning the Nov. 5 U.S. Presidential election.

The U.S.-listed spot ETFs have also seen a strong uptake, pulling in nearly $1.9 billion in investor money since Oct. 14, according to data source Farside Investors. In bitcoin terms, that is the equivalent of 21,450 BTC. To put this into perspective, the bitcoin ETF investors have purchased around 48 days of mined supply, as roughly 450 BTC get mined daily.

These spot ETFs have now taken over $20 billion in net inflows since inception, an impressive feat as it took Gold ETFs about five years to reach the same number, according to Bloomberg's ETF Analyst Eric Balchunas.

Biggest ether inflow since Sept. 27

The U.S.-listed spot ether (ETH) ETFs saw an inflow of $48.4 million on Oct.17, the largest since Sept. 27.

Inflows were spread across issuers, with BlackRock's ETHA raking in $23.6 million, taking the lifetime tally to $1.3 billion. Meanwhile, Fidelity FETH saw a $31.1 million inflow, approaching $500 million in net inflows.
