Bitcoin ETFs Surge to Record $40.62 Billion Inflows, Outperforming Gold Amid Price Above $100K

Bitcoin exchange-traded funds (ETFs) have seen a record surge in inflows, reaching $40.62 billion, indicating strong institutional demand and growing investor confidence in cryptocurrency-backed financial products. This milestone reflects Bitcoin's increasing acceptance in the financial sector.

Recent data shows that Bitcoin ETFs experienced an inflow of $117.4 million on May 8, marking two consecutive days of inflows. Bitcoin's price is currently holding steady above $100,000, trading just below $103,000.

Despite the Federal Reserve's decision not to cut rates and gold's significant first-quarter rally, Bitcoin ETFs have outperformed gold ETFs in terms of net inflows in 2025, underscoring Bitcoin's resilience and attractiveness to investors. The biggest 4-week inflow into crypto in 3 months has been reported, alongside cash inflows of $51.9 billion over the last 9 weeks.

Prominent figures in the cryptocurrency space, including Coinbase CEO and billionaire Max Keiser, have expressed bullish sentiments on Bitcoin's future, predicting significant price increases. Bill Miller IV highlighted Bitcoin's potential to surpass gold's $20 trillion market cap, given its current $2 trillion valuation and functional advantages. Meanwhile, US equities saw an outflow of $9.3 billion in the week to Wednesday, with the largest 4-week outflows since May 2023, while Japan and Europe stocks experienced inflows, and emerging market stocks saw outflows.
