Upcoming Ethereum ETF may replicate IBIT’s success, boosting BlackRock’s crypto market position.
BlackRock’s Bitcoin ETF, IBIT, has grabbed attention with a remarkable surge in trading volume and share price, recently recording an impressive $912 million in trading volume. This milestone reflects growing institutional and retail confidence in Bitcoin investments.
The chart for IBIT reveals several notable trends. In February 2024, ETF flows started strong with $386 million, peaking at $612 million before tapering to $96 million. March 2024 saw high volatility, with notable peaks at $849 million and $452 million. This was followed by a plateau in April, where flows stabilized with lower volatility.
May 2024 witnessed a dip with significant outflows and almost zero flow days. However, June showed recovery with positive inflows, reaching $347 million. The upward trend continued into July with a significant surge, ending the month with a high of $525 million.
Analyzing support and resistance levels, several critical points emerge. The $19 million level in April represents a major support point. Another key support level is $21 million, also from April. During June’s recovery, $18 million emerged as a vital support level. On the resistance side, the $849 million peak in March indicates a strong resistance point, followed by $612 million, and $525 million, the recent July peak.
The overall trend in IBIT flows suggests a general uptrend, indicating increasing investor interest. Periods of high volatility are typically followed by market consolidation, as seen in April. The recent surge in July suggests renewed confidence among investors, potentially setting the stage for further bullish momentum.
Since its inception, BlackRock’s Bitcoin ETF has accumulated over $19.5 billion in inflows. The share price has surged by 20% over the past two weeks and is up 46% since January.
