Bitcoin experienced a strong rebound in ETF activity, with inflows totaling $471.32 million on April 6th – the largest single-day haul since February. This surge was led by BlackRock’s IBIT ($181.89M) and Fidelity’s FBTC ($147.32M), with all ETFs recording net inflows. The renewed institutional interest coincides with Bitcoin’s price stabilizing near $69,000-$70,000, despite ongoing geopolitical tensions. Ether ETFs also saw a significant reversal, attracting $120.24 million in inflows after a period of outflows. Adding to the momentum, Morgan Stanley is set to launch its spot Bitcoin ETF (MSBT) on April 8th, with a notably low 0.14% expense ratio, undercutting BlackRock’s IBIT and potentially sparking a fee war. Analysts highlight Morgan Stanley’s ‘captive audience’ of financial advisors as a key advantage. Total assets under management for US spot Bitcoin ETFs now exceed $90 billion, demonstrating growing institutional adoption and a shift towards structured allocation.
