Overview
2024 spot Bitcoin ETFs exceeded expectations, accumulating over $105 billion in assets in their first year. Among them, BlackRock's iShares Bitcoin Trust (IBIT) set a record for the most successful launch in US ETF history, accumulating over $523 billion in assets in its first year. Experts predict that 2025 will be the "Crypto ETF Year," with over 50 crypto ETFs gaining approval, including spot Solana and XRP funds, as well as option and equity-based products, following the arrival of the new leadership at the US Securities and Exchange Commission. While some hedge funds or pension funds will allocate modest funds to spot ETFs, most inflows come from non-professional investors. With more institutional investors and advisors joining, the fund inflow in 2025 is expected to easily surpass that of 2024.
