In a notable achievement for the cryptocurrency industry, global Spot Bitcoin ETFs have now amassed over $70 billion in total holdings, representing about 5% of the entire Bitcoin (BTC) supply.
This milestone underscores the rising institutional interest and investment in Bitcoin as a credible asset class.
Spot Bitcoin ETFs have become a formidable presence in the cryptocurrency market, with their holdings exceeding $70 billion, equivalent to 5% of Bitcoin’s total supply.
As of March 2024, these ETFs collectively held around 776,464 BTC.
This remarkable growth in Spot Bitcoin ETFs is primarily fueled by major asset management firms like BlackRock and Grayscale, indicating increased institutional adoption and trust in Bitcoin.
The rapid expansion of Spot Bitcoin ETFs has also influenced Bitcoin’s price, pushing it to an all-time high of over $73,000 earlier in March 2024.
This price surge mirrors the rising demand for Bitcoin among institutional investors, further establishing its legitimacy as an investment option.
