Bitcoin ETFs Match 15 Years of Gold Inflows in Under Two Years

US spot Bitcoin ETFs have achieved a historic milestone by matching the capital inflows seen by Gold ETFs over 15 years in less than two years. This rapid growth highlights a significant shift in institutional preference, even as Bitcoin remains approximately 46% below its all-time high. Fernando Nikolić of Blockstream emphasized that this scale of adoption is unprecedented in financial history, especially given the current market drawdown. The trend follows a period where these funds recorded consecutive weekly inflows for the first time in five months, signaling renewed market confidence. Major players like BlackRock’s IBIT and Fidelity’s FBTC continue to drive this momentum, effectively bridging the gap between traditional finance and digital assets. Analysts suggest that the speed of Bitcoin's institutional integration is outpacing traditional commodities, solidifying its role as "digital gold."
