Spot Bitcoin and Ether ETFs are seeing renewed inflows as institutional appetite for crypto exposure continues to build.
On Friday, spot Bitcoin (BTC) ETFs recorded $642.35 million in net inflows, marking the fifth straight day of gains, according to data from SoSoValue. This pushed cumulative net inflows to $56.83 billion, with total net assets now standing at $153.18 billion, roughly 6.62% of Bitcoin’s total market cap.
Fidelity’s FBTC led the day with $315.18 million in fresh capital, while BlackRock’s IBIT followed with $264.71 million. Trading volumes across all spot Bitcoin ETFs topped $3.89 billion, signaling robust activity and growing institutional positioning. Market leaders like IBIT and FBTC posted daily gains of over 2%.
The uptick comes after a quieter start to the month, suggesting a shift in sentiment as macroeconomic conditions stabilize and the crypto market shows signs of strength.

BlackRock eyes ETF tokenization
BlackRock is reportedly exploring the tokenization of ETFs on blockchain networks, following the success of its spot Bitcoin ETFs. The asset management giant is particularly interested in tokenizing funds tied to real-world assets (RWA), though regulatory challenges remain a key hurdle.
Tokenized ETFs could offer new functionality such as 24/7 trading and integration into decentralized finance (DeFi) ecosystems.
