In a March 26 post to X, Bloomberg senior ETF analyst Eric Balchunas noted the presence of Bitcoin ETFs in a chart of the largest 30 asset funds in their first 50 days of trading.
Four Bitcoin ETFs made the list of global funds with BlackRock’s IBIT and Fidelity’s FBTC “in a league of their own,” he exclaimed.
Balchunas noted that even the Bitwise Bitcoin ETF (BITB) — currently the 18th largest Bitcoin ETF by assets under management — was larger than the world’s largest SPDR Gold Shares (GLD) fund, he noted.
