Bitcoin ETFs Bag $528M in Wednesday Inflows

Bitcoin ETFs pulled a surprising $528 million in Wednesday inflows, pushing the 3‑day haul past the $1‑billion mark. That Wednesday surge came as Bitcoin briefly leapt above $84,700, only to settle around $82,485 by market close. The three‑session total of $1.08 billion lifts October net inflows to roughly $461 million, while year‑to‑date inflows hit $1.34 billion. BlackRock’s iShares Bitcoin Trust led Wednesday with $235 million, followed by Fidelity Wise Origin with about $213 million. Two weeks of withdrawals preceded the rebound, with ETFs shedding $228 million last week and $681 million the week before. Even altcoin ETFs saw modest gains: Ether added $15 million after a five‑session outflow streak, Solana $585,000, and XRP $709,000. These inflows signal renewed investor confidence after a month‑long dip, as regulators still weigh the ETFs’ approval.
