  • BlackRock's IBIT and Fidelity's FBTC have seen significant growth, with asset bases of about $6 billion and $4.3 billion, respectively, indicating strong investor confidence.
  • Investors have seen returns of over 18% since the January 11 debut of the new ETFs, outperforming bitcoin's less than 12% gain in the same period.
  • The continuous inflow streak, including a $330 million single-day inflow into BlackRock's IBIT, reflects growing mainstream interest in cryptocurrency investments.
