The Bitcoin ETF "IBIT" with an asset under management of 9 trillion yen has rapidly risen to 5th place in the US ETF rankings.

## Entering the Top 5

According to data from Bloomberg’s ETF analyst, Eric Balchunas, on the 21st, BlackRock’s Bitcoin spot ETF “IBIT” has entered the top 5 in the ETF ranking for year-to-date inflows. Just a month ago, it was at 47th place, but since April 21, it has recorded approximately $6.5 billion in net inflows, bringing its current year-to-date net inflow amount to $8.9 billion (1.2 trillion yen).

IBIT gained a net inflow of $287 million on May 21, moving up to fifth place, ahead of the SPDR Short-Term Government Bond ETF (BIL). It is currently close to $16.8 billion in the iShares Very Short-Term Treasury ETF (SGOV), $15.2 billion in the Vanguard Total Stock Market ETF (VTI), and $13 billion in the SPDR Portfolio S&P 500 ETF (SPLG).

In terms of assets under management, IBIT recorded $66.9 billion, ranking fourth out of the top five. However, it still falls short of the $661.5 billion in the Vanguard S&P 500 ETF (VOO), $477.5 billion in VTI and $68.4 billion in SPLG, and will need further breakthroughs in the second half of the year to overtake the leader VOO ($64.5 billion in net inflows) for the full year of 2025.

“With gold and cash ETFs falling in the rankings, the rankings are gradually returning to where they were in 2024,” Balčunas said. IBIT recorded a staggering net inflow of $37.4 billion in its first year of listing in 2024, ranking third for the year. The current rapid inflow of funds suggests an increase in institutional investors’ access to the bitcoin market.
