Can U.S. Spot Bitcoin ETFs Keep Momentum After Hitting $500 Billion in Trading Volume?
U.S. spot Bitcoin ETFs have reached an impressive milestone, collectively surpassing $500 billion in trading volume just under a year since their debut in January.
Early momentum saw cumulative trading reach $100 billion by March and $200 billion by April, fueled by Bitcoin’s climb to nearly $74,000. After stabilizing between $50,000 and $70,000 in recent months, Bitcoin prices surged again following Donald Trump’s recent pro-crypto presidential win.
This Wednesday marked a key achievement for these Bitcoin ETFs, generating $7.9 billion in trading volume, their fourth-largest day since launch. BlackRock’s IBIT led the activity with $5.2 billion, while Fidelity’s FBTC and Grayscale’s GBTC saw $1.2 billion and $670 million, respectively.
IBIT has also risen to dominate market share, capturing 67% of volume compared to just 15% in January when Grayscale’s GBTC held the spotlight.4
