Co-founder of the ETF Institute, Nate Geraci, provided a detailed breakdown of these digital asset ETFs and pointed to the clear industry monopoly of such products. This count even extends to 14, considering the inclusion of the MSTR Option Strategy ETF, known for its partial exposure to cryptocurrencies.
The dominance of crypto-related ETFs is an undeniable testament to the increasing investor appetite for digital assets, despite earlier skepticism regarding their demand. BlackRock’s iShares Bitcoin Trust ETF (IBIT) has emerged as a leader with $21.53 billion in year-to-date inflows.
This ETF is closely followed by Fidelity’s Wise Origin Bitcoin Fund (FBTC) with $9.48 billion, and ARK Invest’s collaboration with 21shares on the ARKB, which amassed $2.36 billion in inflows.
While Bitcoin-related ETFs have seen substantial inflows, their Ethereum counterparts are also marking their presence known in the industry. The iShares Ethereum Trust ETF (ETHA) leads among Ethereum ETFs with $1.15 billion in year-to-date inflows.
Following closely is Fidelity’s Ethereum Fund ETF (FETH), which has garnered $453.66 million. The data underscores a robust interest in Ethereum-related investment products, though they trail the inflow volumes seen by their Bitcoin-focused counterparts.
