BlackRock's Bitcoin ETF (IBIT) Records $1B Trading Volume in 20 Minutes, Targets New Volume Record This Wednesday
Nov 07, 2024 at 12:49 am
According to Eric Balchunas, a prominent ETF analyst, BlackRock's iShares Bitcoin Trust ETF (IBIT) managed to record $1 billion worth of trading volume in just 20 minutes of trading.
A prominent ETF analyst has observed that BlackRock’s IShares Bitcoin Trust ETF (NYSE:IBIT) managed to record $1 billion in trading volume within just 20 minutes of trading on Wednesday.
According to Eric Balchunas, the ETF product is on track to set a new volume record this Wednesday.
Typically, ETFs tend to experience strong trading volume during major sell-offs. However, this doesn’t seem to be the case this time around.
As Balchunas notes, this is likely just a “feeding frenzy” volume since the Bitcoin price has surged sharply higher.
On Oct. 29, IBIT traded roughly $3.3 billion in Bitcoin. This was a precursor to major inflows. Over the next few days, IBIT alone managed to attract $1.8 billion in inflows.
Given that IBIT is currently seeing a record-breaking trading volume, the very same scenario could play out once again.
“Not saying it's guaranteed but I'm a fan of patterns and it fits the pattern,” he said.
Notably, other ETFs are also seeing significant trading volumes, according to Balchunas.
At press time, Bitcoin is trading at $74,313 on the Bistamp exchange.
As reported by U.Today, Balchunas recently opined that Bitcoin ETFs were attracting fresh money after some naysayers argued that almost all inflows came from centralized cryptocurrency exchanges.
It is worth noting that the Coinbase premium has also returned for the first time in five weeks, which means that Americans are likely leading the current rally.
