BlackRock’s iShares Bitcoin Trust (IBIT) saw a record $872 million in net inflows on Oct. 30 as cumulative BTC held by US Bitcoin ETF (exchange-traded fund) products closed on the 1.1 million held by Bitcoin creator Satoshi Nakamoto. 
Overall, <a href="https://insidebitcoins.com/news/bitcoin-nears-all-time-high-as-spot-btc-etfs-see-870m-surge-driven-by-blackrocks-ibit">U.S. Bitcoin ETFs</a> registered nearly $900 million in inflows on Wednesday alone, as Bloomberg ETF analyst Eric Balchunas said they are gobbling up BTC ‘’like Pac-Man on a bender.’’

The surge in inflows marks the largest single-day inflow for BlackRock’s IBIT since its inception in January, surpassing the previous high of $849 million set in March. This influx is part of a broader trend, with the U.S Bitcoin ETFs collectively amassing $72.46 billion worth of BTC in less than 9 months.&nbsp; 
Balchunas said the recent BTC ETF inflows are fueled by factors including anticipation of a pro-crypto outcome in the upcoming U.S. presidential election and central banks’ global shift toward reducing interest rates. 
“US spot ETFs are scheduled to hit 1 million bitcoin held by next Wed and pass Satoshi by mid-December (before their first birthday, amazing),” Balchunas said on X. ”If prices keep going up, Trump wins, we could see FOMO kick in, and it all happens faster.”

The record-breaking inflows have positioned BlackRock’s IBIT as a dominant player in the Crypto ETF market, significantly outpacing its competitors. Balchunas said IBIT has crossed the $30 billion mark in assets.

It hit this milestone in just 293 days, an all time record.

This means that BlackRock’s IBIT holds 41.4% of all the BTC accumulated by ETFs since they began trading in January.&nbsp;
