On October 1, 2026, BlackRock's iShares Bitcoin Trust (IBIT) attracted $196 million in inflows, the largest single-day inflow for U.S. spot Bitcoin funds that week. In contrast, Fidelity's Wise Origin Bitcoin Fund (FBTC) experienced $61 million in outflows and had only one positive inflow day all week.
