BlackRock’s spot Bitcoin ETF attracted its largest daily inflow in nearly three months on Friday, as investors increased exposure to crypto-linked assets.
According to Farside Investors, the iShares Bitcoin Trust recorded $287.4 million in inflows, its strongest showing since October. The move came as markets reacted to rising geopolitical tensions following the U.S. capture of Venezuelan President Nicolás Maduro, an event that pushed oil prices lower while crypto markets remained resilient.
U.S. spot Bitcoin ETFs collectively recorded $471.3 million in inflows, the highest combined daily total since mid-November, reversing earlier outflows and lifting weekly net inflows to $459 million. Analysts said start-of-year portfolio rebalancing played a role, as Bitcoin underperformed other assets in late 2025.
Others pointed to policy uncertainty and geopolitical assertiveness as factors strengthening Bitcoin’s appeal as a decentralized store of value. Inflows also spread to Fidelity, Bitwise, and Grayscale products, signaling broad-based institutional interest.
