Bitcoin ETFs Just Snapped HARD — $381M Flooded In as BTC Rockets Past $90K
U.S.-based Bitcoin ETFs just pulled off their biggest flex in almost two months. On April 21, they stacked up a whopping $381.3 million in net inflows — that’s serious cash moving into BTC exposure 👀. According to Farside Investor, this was the biggest ETF pump since Jan 30, when Bitcoin was riding that all-time-high hype wave.
So why’s everyone suddenly so bullish again? Easy. Bitcoin’s price is poppin’ off — it shot back up to $88K and now it’s chillin’ around $90,997.
Leading the ETF gang was ARK 21Shares (ARKB) with a strong $116.1M bag. Fidelity’s FBTC followed up with $87.6M. Even OGs like Grayscale (GBTC) and the Bitcoin Mini Trust ETF (BTC) got in on the action, adding a combined $69.1M.
BlackRock’s IBIT, the biggest BTC ETF on the block, brought in $41.6M. And don’t sleep on the underdogs — HODL and EZBC also caught some heat with $11.7M and $10.1M in inflows.
And guess what? People are also getting hyped for the first XRP ETF, which could be the next big mover if approved. 📈
But it’s not all green candles just yet — zooming out, CoinShares says the U.S. digital asset market still looks a bit shaky. The full week actually saw $71M in outflows, meaning April 21 might’ve just been a rare pop-off moment.
Meanwhile, Europe’s playing bullish:
- 🇨🇭 Switzerland pulled in $43.7M
- 🇩🇪 Germany followed with $22.3M
- 🇨🇦 Canada joined with $9.4M
One plot twist: those mid-week U.S. retail sales numbers? Too strong — and that led to a fat $146M exit from digital assets. Yikes.
Oh, and short Bitcoin ETFs? They’re flopping. For the seventh week straight, they saw outflows — down 40% in AUM. Looks like betting against BTC ain’t the vibe rn.
Bottom line: Bitcoin ETFs just had a banger day, but the market’s still moving with caution. Buckle up — it’s gonna be a volatile ride.
