BITmarkets | Bitcoin ETFs Record Largest Inflows Since January

U.S.-based Bitcoin exchange-traded funds (ETFs) recorded their highest day of net inflows since late January, as the crypto market remained strong over the Easter weekend.

On April 21, the 11 Bitcoin-tracking ETFs posted a combined net inflow of $381.3 million, with the ARK 21Shares Bitcoin ETF (ARKB) contributing the most at $116.1 million, according to data from CoinGlass.

This marks the most significant single-day inflow for these funds since January 30, when they collectively saw $588.1 million in net inflows, just days after Bitcoin briefly surpassed the $100,000 mark.

The latest inflows come after a few weeks of weaker performance from the ETFs, driven in part by uncertainty surrounding U.S. President Donald Trump’s trade war policies.

Bitcoin fell below $100,000 in early February and dropped to a 2025 low of $74,773 on April 7, shortly after Trump announced sweeping tariffs, which also led to a broader decline in stock markets.

Among the other ETFs, the Fidelity Wise Origin Bitcoin Fund (FBTC) recorded the second-largest inflow on April 21 with $87.6 million.

Grayscale’s Bitcoin Trust (GBTC) and its Bitcoin Mini Trust ETF (BTC) together brought in $69.1 million.

The Invesco Galaxy Bitcoin ETF (BTCO) and WisdomTree Bitcoin Fund (BTCW) reported no inflows or outflows for the day.

BlackRock’s iShares Bitcoin Trust ETF (IBIT), the largest by assets under management, saw a net inflow of $41.6 million, which was about half the amount it recorded before the weekend on April 17.

The surge in ETF inflows came as U.S. equity markets remained closed on April 18 in observance of Good Friday.

When markets reopened on April 21, major indices ended the day lower, with the S&P 500 falling 2.4%, and the Nasdaq and Dow Jones both down 2.5%.

Meanwhile, crypto markets held firm over the holiday weekend.

The total crypto market capitalization rose by $800 billion over the three-day break, reaching $2.84 trillion.

Bitcoin played a significant role in that gain, pushing its own market cap above $1.75 trillion for the first time since March 22, with its price climbing above $88,500 — a four-week high.
