BlackRock Leads the Pack

BlackRock’s iShares Bitcoin Trust brought in the most money during this stretch. The fund attracted $479 million over the three trading sessions.

Bitcoin Price and Market Mood

Bitcoin briefly climbed above $64,920 on Wednesday. This happened as the inflows kept coming in.

The price later settled at $64,744.53. That was up 0.7% over the previous 24 hours, according to CoinGecko.

Despite the price gain, investor sentiment stayed cautious. The Crypto Fear and Greed Index remained in “Extreme Fear” territory.

The index scored 25 on Wednesday. That was down slightly from 27 the day before.

This index measures overall sentiment toward Bitcoin and other large cryptocurrencies. A lower score points to more fear in the market.

Ether ETFs also saw money coming in during this stretch. These funds added $60.9 million on Wednesday.

That marked the second straight day of inflows for Ether ETFs. Their two day total reached $114.6 million.

XRP ETFs told a different story this week. These funds recorded $3.58 million in net outflows on Wednesday.

That outflow reduced XRP ETF total net assets to $993.4 million. Cumulative net inflows for these funds still stood at $1.51 billion.

The mixed results show that not every crypto ETF moved in the same direction this week. Bitcoin and Ether funds gained ground while XRP funds lost some.
