April just reminded everyone who’s really moving this market 😏
Spot BTC$BTC ETFs pulled in $2.44B in April — nearly 2x March — pushing total AUM to ~$102B. That’s not retail hype, that’s institutions stepping back in and absorbing more BTC than miners are producing.
BlackRock’s IBIT dominated hard, taking over 70% of flows and holding ~800K+ BTC. Fidelity Investments’s FBTC followed, while even new players like Morgan Stanley’s MSBT started pulling fresh capital. Meanwhile, Grayscale Investments keeps bleeding outflows.
This isn’t just a bounce — it’s a positioning shift. YTD flows flipped back positive, and April’s demand came alongside a 12–16% BTC rally toward $80K. Institutions didn’t chase the top… they funded the move$BTC #USSeeksStrategicBitcoinReserve
