BlackRock Records $3 Billion in Net Inflows into Its Crypto-Related Products in Q1 2025

The American asset management giant, BlackRock, recorded $3 billion in net inflows into its crypto-related products in the first quarter of 2025.

American asset management giant, BlackRock (NYSE:BLK), attracted $3 billion in net inflows into its crypto-related products in the first quarter of 2025, according to results published on Thursday.

This amount represents 2.8% of the $107 billion in flows into its iShares ETFs and $9.3 billion in private markets. For the three months to March 31, 2025, brought the firm’s total assets under management to $11.6 trillion, with a 3% annualized growth from the previous quarter.

At $50.3 billion, crypto assets now make up about 0.5% of BlackRock’s total assets under management and generated $34 million in management fees, or less than 1% of its long-term revenues.

Strong signal for investors

These figures are particularly noteworthy in a market that has seen massive outflows from Bitcoin ETFs. BlackRock, however, seems to be bucking the trend, highlighting ongoing institutional demand for its crypto-backed ETF products.

The strong inflows into BlackRock’s digital products signal that crypto is gradually finding its place in institutional portfolios. Even at a small scale, this trend indicates a structural shift in the adoption of digital assets.

This report comes as Bitcoin price surges following the announcement of Donald Trump’s tariff pause. While still a modest share, the continued growth of crypto investments at BlackRock underscores the increasing interest from institutions.

This discreet yet sustained movement showcases a turning point in traditional finance, where digital assets are gradually integrating into long-term strategies.
