BlackRock has officially made history. The asset management giant’s iShares Bitcoin Trust (IBIT) has surpassed 700,000 BTC under management, further cementing its status as the dominant force in institutional crypto investment.

This milestone marks not only a symbolic threshold but a fundamental shift in how Bitcoin is perceived in traditional finance. With the ETF’s value exceeding $75 billion and inflows accelerating, this institutional tide is reshaping the supply dynamics of Bitcoin itself.

The Road to 700,000 BTC: How BlackRock Became the Whale Among Whales

Since its January 2024 debut, BlackRock’s spot Bitcoin ETF has broken one record after another. It began as just another contender in a crowded regulatory race. Now, IBIT controls more than 55% of all Bitcoin held by U.S. spot ETFs, according to Cointelegraph and confirmed by on-chain analytics platform Arkham.

What separates BlackRock from the pack is not just scale, but consistency. Daily inflows of over $150 million have become the norm. Even during market dips, institutional buyers, ranging from hedge funds to pension groups, have kept accumulating IBIT shares. In fact, recent 13-F filings show participation from sovereign wealth funds in Asia and North America, signaling that Bitcoin has matured into a serious asset class.

Bitcoin’s Price Reacts to ETF Demand Surge

Following the announcement of the ETF’s new milestone, Bitcoin’s price hovered near $108,000, with daily highs approaching $110,000. The price range reflects a tight consolidation zone just beneath its previous all-time high of $112,000, set earlier in March 2025.

Technical analysts suggest that a breakout above this level, backed by strong ETF flows, could push BTC toward the $130,000 range in the next leg up. QCP Capital noted that options traders have begun positioning around $130K call options for Q4, indicating rising confidence in further gains.

“The sheer scale of BlackRock’s accumulation has turned this ETF into a gravity well for capital,” said an analyst at AlphaNode Research. “It’s absorbing sell pressure and dictating the tempo of the broader market.”

Why IBIT Dominates the ETF Landscape

While several other asset managers launched spot ETFs after regulatory approval in early 2024, BlackRock’s early mover advantage, low management fees (0.25%), and superior liquidity have given it a near-monopoly. No other product has matched its institutional brand appeal or execution efficiency.

Furthermore, BlackRock has reportedly partnered with a network of authorized participants and market makers, ensuring seamless creation and redemption cycles, even in volatile conditions. This stability encourages larger firms to allocate capital without slippage or execution risk.

A New Paradigm for Bitcoin Supply and Demand

Perhaps the most important impact of the ETF’s success is the reduction in available Bitcoin supply. Every share issued by IBIT must be backed by actual Bitcoin. With over 700,000 BTC now locked in the ETF, those coins are effectively removed from circulation. The total amount of BTC in all U.S. spot ETFs now exceeds 1.25 million, more than 6% of all Bitcoin in existence.

This trend creates what many analysts are calling a “supply squeeze supercycle,” in which price increases are not just speculative but structurally driven. If inflows continue and macroeconomic conditions stay favorable, the imbalance between demand and circulating supply could force a reevaluation of Bitcoin’s long-term price ceiling.

Conclusion

BlackRock’s iShares Bitcoin ETF surpassing the 700,000 BTC mark is more than a headline, it’s a landmark moment for both institutional adoption and the evolution of digital assets.

With over half of the U.S. spot ETF supply under its wing, BlackRock is shaping Bitcoin’s price discovery, liquidity, and mainstream legitimacy. As institutional demand continues to build and macro sentiment remains risk-on, Bitcoin may not just test its all-time highs, it could rewrite them entirely.
