- Bitcoin ETFs saw inflows exceeding $869.8M in March after a challenging February, aligning with renewed bullish momentum in the broader cryptocurrency market
- ARKB ETF’s $100M inflow on March 14 marked a turning point, reversing significant outflows and signaling renewed investor confidence in Bitcoin funds
- Bitcoin surged nearly 8% since March 14, reaching $87,379, backed by institutional investments and a rising market cap of $1.73 trillion
The Bitcoin ETF market certainly started out on a high note, registering billion-dollar inflows month after month. Since the first U.S. spot Bitcoin ETF launched in January of 2024, the market for this financial product experienced over a year of unprecedented growth.
However, all good things must come to an end, or at least a pause. By February 2025, all Bitcoin exchange-traded funds began to register considerable money leaving the funds. The data suggests that from February until mid-March, the collective of Bitcoin ETFs were registering 35 times more outflows than inflows.
The heavy bleeding of funds would only stop by March 14, when Ark Investment’s “ARKB” Bitcoin ETF would pull $100 million in inflows in a single then, driving the sum of all ETFs to register a $41.3 million surplus on that date.
Since then, data from Farside Investors reveals that Spot Bitcoin funds have managed to turn the tide and revert the bullish momentum.
From March 14 until March 24, these funds registered consecutive inflows every single day, managing to buy $869.8 million in Bitcoin in this short time frame.
Bitcoin Nears $90,000
At the same time, Bitcoin the asset has also experienced a more favorable momentum in the recent past. After tumbling to below $80,000 last week, Bitcoin gained nearly 6% in value. Currently, $BTC is valued at $87,379 per coin, bringing it closer to reclaiming last week’s losses. Bitcoin’s current market capitalization is at $1.73 trillion.
Interestingly, since Bitcoin ETFs began their recovery on March 14, $BTC followed a similar trajectory, gaining 7.98% in value in that same timeframe. This growth has been further bolstered by increasing institutional investments, as major financial players continue to integrate Bitcoin into their portfolios, signaling a broader acceptance of the asset class.
