- October’s ETF totals reached about $3.47 billion across four trading days, reinforcing the concentrated flow of capital into regulated Bitcoin products.
- Bitcoin peaked around $126,198 on Oct. 6–7 before easing, with trading holding near $124,000 after the pullback.
- IBIT holds roughly 783,767 BTC and is approaching the rare $100 billion AUM threshold, as total spot Bitcoin ETF inflows since launch near $60 billion, according to industry trackers.
- Mining and crypto-treasury stocks rallied alongside the price surge, with HIVE up about 25%, Riot climbing nearly 11%, Marathon gaining around 9%, and Argo posting an outsized jump, while a ‘debasement trade’ narrative tied to a U.S. shutdown and expected Fed easing added to demand.
