The trend in crypto investing is changing; Bitcoin ETFs are seeing an inflow of capital. In the last five trading days, Bitcoin ETFs pulled in $1.1B, more than double from the prior week of $515.9M, according to ETF.com data. Big players in the space, like BlackRock’s iShares Bitcoin Trust (IBIT) and Fidelity Wise Origin Bitcoin Fund (FBTC), are still leading the charge as investors move into Bitcoin against geopolitical and economic uncertainty.

This is different from the chaotic global markets after US President Donald Trump announced tariffs-first 25% on Canadian and Mexican imports, then he hit the brakes. In response, investors are increasing their allocation to Bitcoin-based products as part of a broader risk management strategy.

Bitcoin ETFs Surge as Traditional Markets React to Policy Changes

Based on available data, since January 2024, spot Bitcoin ETFs have gathered over $40.6B while Ethereum ETFs, since July 2023, have grabbed only $3.2B.

Bitcoin is still volatile, down 1.3% in the last 24 hours to $98,000 due to US economic policy uncertainty and global geopolitical tensions.

Top Gainers Among Bitcoin ETFs

Despite these inflows, Bitcoin is still susceptible to regulatory changes, trade policy shifts and macroeconomic concerns.

Grayscale Bitcoin Trust – GBTC Sees Slower Outflows

While inflows into some of the new Bitcoin ETFs were strong for much of January-February, outflows for Grayscale’s Bitcoin Trust–which became an ETF a few months ago, for instance, was $3.1M over the last 5 days, says. Meanwhile, its ETH counterpart, Grayscale Ethereum Trust (ETHE), saw $72M in outflows, so Ethereum-based products are not yet enjoying the same investor confidence as Bitcoin ETFs.

Trump Administration’s Pro-Crypto Stance

The greater acceptance of Bitcoin ETFs is aided largely by the pro-crypto affirmation from the Trump administration. The promotion of digital asset growth by the Trump administration happened through many policies advancing blockchain capacity building and Bitcoin adoption.

Reports also have it that the Securities and Exchange Commission is merging its crypto enforcement unit into what could mean non-restrictive regulations. Just recently, Trump appointed the former PayPal executive David Sacks as AI & Crypto Czar, showing his administration’s keen interest in digital assets.

This has created a good environment for Bitcoin ETFs, so investors are increasing their exposure to digital assets as part of their overall portfolios.

Ethereum ETFs Struggle

BTC ETFs are outpacing their Ethereum-based counterparts. While Bitcoin ETFs have gathered $5.3B YTD, Ethereum ETFs have only seen $492.9M in new assets, according to ETF.com.

Even with Ethereum’s highly volatile price lately, Ethereum-based products are not getting the same level of institutional acceptance that Bitcoin ETFs are now getting, so this is a legit avenue for institutional and retail investors.

The gap shows a broader investor preference for Bitcoin ETFs, at least, as traditional financial institutions are embracing Bitcoin as an inflation hedge.

Global Market Reaction to Bitcoin ETF

As Bitcoin ETFs keep attracting institutional money, the global markets are adjusting to the increasingly finance-integrated crypto industry. The CoinMarketCap ‘Fear & Greed Index, which measures investor sentiment, is at 38 (Fear), due to U.S. economic policies and geopolitical tensions. Traditional markets: the Nasdaq 100, S&P 500, and STOXX 600-are all red due to Trump’s tariffs, pushing investors into Bitcoin-based products.

Bitcoin is strong, shining in economic turmoil when most other assets fail to.

Conclusion: Bitcoin ETFs’ Place in Modern Finance

$1.1 billion pouring in for Bitcoin ETFs in just 5 days, it’s clear institutional investors are buying Bitcoin as a hedge against economic uncertainty and inflation risks. With regulatory clarity, pro-crypto policies and more institutional acceptance of traditional finance players, Bitcoin ETFs will be important in the future of the global financial system. As global markets prepare for more volatility, the Bitcoin ETF is the vessel of choice for investment, solidifying Bitcoin’s position in the financial world as the digital store of value.
