The ETF market in 2025 is entering a crazy money-raising period. Bloomberg senior analyst Eric Balchunas revealed astonishing data: total capital inflow for the year reached $1.48 trillion, with an average of $6 billion per day, a 28% increase compared to the record in 2024.



Where did all the funds go? Vanguard's S&P 500 ETF (VOO) dominates, attracting $138 billion, even surpassing its own record from last year. But the most eye-catching performance is from Bitcoin spot ETFs — BlackRock's Bitcoin spot ETF has firmly entered the top ten, ranking sixth.

When talking about Bitcoin ETFs, iShares' IBIT cannot be ignored. This star product attracted $24.8 billion in 2025, with assets swelling to $67.3 billion, ranking sixth among all ETFs. The data looks impressive, but there's a harsh fact: IBIT is the only ETF among the top 15 in capital inflows that had a negative return for the year, with a decline of -6.41%. The volatility of Bitcoin's price directly impacted this ETF's annual performance.

Overall, in 2025, a total of 3,525 ETFs (about 72%) achieved net inflows, indicating that market activity is indeed unprecedentedly high.

1.48 trillion USD poured in, yet IBIT still dropped 6%, this is my daily routine—money keeps pouring in and it keeps falling. $24.8 billion has gone in, but I still can't catch the bottom. My withdrawal card is already ready to give up. VOO attracting $138 billion is really fierce. As soon as the inverse indicator activates, I’m sure I’ll be the one to crash here someday. Among the top ten, only IBIT is losing money. Son of a gun, isn’t this just writing my autobiography? The crypto army charges forward, and I follow behind, always the last one to step onto the battlefield.

1.48 trillion poured in, and IBIT is still losing money? That's outrageous, no wonder so many people are buying the dip on Bitcoin spot ETFs.

$148 billion in the market, but BTC ETF still couldn't hold... IBIT吸248亿 surprisingly lost 6.41%, this is the reality, brother. Wait, VOO alone absorbed 1380亿? Traditional finance is the real vampire, haha. I'm impressed with the top ten spot for BTC spot ETFs, what about Grayscale? This wave of capital entering isn't all for us, they've all been cut by CeFi. Damn, looking at the data is satisfying, but the holdings are still in the green, this feeling... $1.48 trillion flowed in, what's going on? My account is still all red. IBIT really dragged down this wave, the more funds, the sharper the decline.

1.48 trillion poured in, and IBIT still lost 6%... Is this called attracting money? I think it's just a rip-off of retail investors. --- VOO attracted 138 billion, IBIT attracted 24.8 billion, but IBIT is bleeding heavily. The difference is huge. --- It's another hype around spot Bitcoin ETFs. Funds come in quickly and lose just as fast, cycle repeats. --- Net inflow of 3,525 ETFs sounds impressive, but how many are losing money? Good data doesn't necessarily mean profit. --- Bitcoin volatility smashes IBIT. And it's still ranked sixth? If it weren't for wealthy investors following the trend, it might be even worse. --- An average of 6 billion USD daily, it feels like all the money has been taken by institutions. Retail investors might as well just be chives. --- Star products with negative returns— isn't that ironic? Honestly, I think it's just a clearer way to cut losses. --- VOO is very stable, while Bitcoin ETFs are like roller coasters. It's obvious which one to choose at a glance.

$148 billion in the market, this wave is really institutional investors疯狂 accumulation VOO monopolizing the market is not new, but the direct rise of BTC spot ETF is truly outrageous IBIT has gained so much money but still亏损? That's really outrageous 248 billion inflow resulted in a 6.4% drop, investors should be crying Overall, 72% of ETFs are profitable, this data looks pretty good The volatility of Bitcoin in this wave is really a roller coaster for investors VOO is steady, with 138 billion truly formidable The speed of the spot BTC ETF, who would have thought Funds are疯狂 pouring in, but few can make money... IBIT had a crash, and no matter how much money there is, it can't救负收益

$1.48 trillion entered the market, but some people are crying after getting trapped in IBIT... This is the market. --- The monster VOO is still eating, and Bitcoin ETF is also joining the fun. Funds really have nowhere to go. --- IBIT received 24.8 billion, but the result was -6.41%. Laugh out loud. This is what you call a textbook "high-position bagholder." --- Crazy capital inflows sound exciting, but for most people, the moment they enter is the beginning of being harvested. --- 35,25 ETFs had net inflows. Sounds impressive, but how many of them are actually making money...
