Key Takeaways:
- U.S. spot Bitcoin ETFs recorded $609 million in net inflows on Wednesday as BTC hit a new all-time high above $111,000.
- BlackRock’s IBIT led daily inflows, while total ETF trading volume reached $7.64 billion.
- Weekly crypto inflows hit $785 million, driven by Bitcoin and Ethereum, pushing 2025’s total to $7.5 billion.
U.S. spot Bitcoin exchange-traded funds posted $609 million in net inflows on Wednesday, marking six consecutive days of positive flows as Bitcoin surged to a new all-time high above $111,000.
The inflows tracked closely with Bitcoin’s breakout past its previous high of around $109,000.
According to CoinMarketCap, the asset hit a record $111,861 in the past 24 hours, driven largely by institutional interest and ETF-driven demand.
BlackRock’s IBIT Lead in terms of Inflows
BlackRock’s IBIT led the day with $530.6 million in net inflows.
Fidelity’s FBTC, Bitwise’s BITB, and the Grayscale Mini Bitcoin Trust also reported strong activity, each pulling in over $20 million.
Spot ETFs from VanEck, Ark & 21Shares, and Valkyrie saw smaller but still positive flows, according to SoSoValue.
Collectively, the 12 spot Bitcoin ETFs recorded $7.64 billion in trading volume on Wednesday, their highest since February 25.
May inflows have reached $4.24 billion, pushing total net inflows since launch to $43.38 billion.
Last week, digital asset investment products saw $785 million in inflows, marking the fifth straight week of gains and pushing year-to-date inflows to $7.5 billion—surpassing the previous peak set in February.
Inflows were led by the U.S., Germany, and Hong Kong, while Sweden, Canada, and Brazil reported modest outflows.
Bitcoin led with $557 million in inflows, though slightly down from the prior week, while short-bitcoin products also saw modest gains.
Ethereum drew $205 million (the highest among altcoins) boosted by positive sentiment after the Pectra upgrade and leadership changes.
Bitcoin Primed for Next Leg Higher as Liquidity and Yields Align, Says Hyblock Capital
Bitcoin has entered price discovery after surpassing its previous all-time high, and market conditions suggest the rally may be far from over.
According to Hyblock Capital’s latest analysis, elevated U.S. Treasury yields and record liquidity levels are creating a powerful backdrop for further upside.
Hyblock’s “Combined Books” metric—which tracks limit orders within 10% of spot price—is now in the 98th percentile over the past 90 days.
Open interest across major exchanges has also surged, sitting in the 96th percentile. Together, these signals point to a market loaded with liquidity and primed for a breakout.
“From a technical perspective, the most reliable support band lies between $101k and $102.5k, where both Binance and Bybit have repeatedly seen heavy open interest entries that trap shorts and attract fresh longs,” Shubh Varma, CEO of Hyblock Capital, said in a note shared with Cryptonews.com.
He added that flow signals are also crucial. Hyblock’s cumulative volume delta (CVD) data shows that a breakout above +$250 million, especially if retail long positions stay below 35%, may confirm bullish continuation.
On the other hand, dips below –$500 million in CVD with elevated retail longs have historically marked reversal zones.
Rate Cut Expectations and Persistent Inflation Reinforce Bitcoin’s Appeal as a Hedge
Ryan Lee, Chief Analyst at Bitget Research in a statement to Cryptonews also noted that macro factors are playing their part in reinforcing Bitcoin’s appeal as a hedge against inflation. He noted:
Macro conditions are doing their part. Rate cut expectations and persistent inflation reinforce Bitcoin’s appeal as a hedge, with many eyeing $113,000 as a realistic near-term target by June 2025.
He further added that Bitcoin’s history shows us that sharp rallies often invite sharp corrections.
A stronger U.S. dollar or fresh geopolitical tensions could easily knock momentum off course.
