BlackRock's Bitcoin ETP Records Largest Outflow Since Launch as US Trading Resumes

BlackRock's spot Bitcoin exchange-traded fund saw a record outflow of $330.8 million, or more than 3,500 Bitcoin

BlackRock's Bitcoin ETP Records Largest Outflow Since Launch as US Trading Resumes

BlackRock’s iShares Bitcoin Trust (IBIT) saw its largest outflow on Jan. 2 as trading resumed in the United States.

According to the CEO of crypto-reviews portal Apollo, Thomas Fahrer, BlackRock’s spot Bitcoin exchange-traded fund saw a record outflow of $330.8 million, or more than 3,500 BTC on Thursday. This marks the third consecutive trading day of outflows for the BTC investment product.

It is the largest outflow since the product launched in January 2024, eclipsing the previous record of $188.7 million on Dec. 24, according to Farside Investors.

The move follows a market closure on New Year’s Day. However, the outflows come as BlackRock ranked third for inflows among all exchange-traded funds in the United States in 2024 with $37.2 billion, according to data from Bloomberg shared by senior ETF analyst Eric Balchunas.

The leading ETF was the Vanguard 500 Index Fund (VOO), with $116 billion in inflows for the year, while the iShares Core S&P 500 ETF (IVV) closed second with $89 billion in inflows.

“So maybe in 2025, Bitcoin ETFs take top spot via more inflows and higher prices,” commented Bitcoin pioneer Adam Back.

Bucking BlackRock’s outflow trend on Thursday were Bitwise, Fidelity, and Ark 21Shares, which saw fund inflows of $48.3 million, $36.2 million, and $16.5 million on Jan. 2, respectively. Grayscale’s Bitcoin Mini Trust also saw a minor inflow of $6.9 million but its larger GBTC fund outflowed $23 million.

These included the launch of combined spot BTC and Ether ETH tokens >$3,458.02 on Jan. 2 at 09:01 AM Eastern time.

“Actually, these all will happen,” he said.
