Bitcoin Spot ETF IBIT Posts Over $25B Inflows Despite -9.59% Return, Ranks 6th Among US Stock ETFs
COINOTAG News, December 20 — Bloomberg’s Senior ETF Analyst Eric Balchunas released the top 25 US stock ETFs by annual inflows on X. Among them, the Bitwise Bitcoin Spot ETF IBIT posted a -9.59% annual return, yet ranked sixth in inflows, even surpassing the SPDR Gold Trust (GLD) by new money.
This pattern highlights sustained demand for regulated crypto access amid volatility, with IBIT pulling in excess of $25 billion in inflows during a bear market.
The contrast between a negative return and robust inflows reinforces a long‑term thesis: institutional appetite for spot BTC exposure persists as regulatory clarity improves.
Traders should monitor inflow momentum and macro triggers that could lift the crypto ETF narrative when conditions turn favorable.
