2025/09/21 18:53

TLDR

  • BlackRock earned over $260 million in revenue from its Bitcoin and Ethereum ETFs in less than two years.
  • The iShares Bitcoin Trust (IBIT) generated $218 million in fees during its first year.
  • BlackRock’s Ethereum fund, ETHA, earned $42 million in fees within its first year.
  • IBIT has grown into the largest crypto ETF globally with over $88 billion in assets.
  • ETHA holds a 72.5% market share of US Ethereum ETF flows, attracting $13.4 billion in net inflows.

BlackRock has generated over $260 million in annual revenue from its Bitcoin and Ethereum exchange-traded funds (ETFs) in less than two years. The revenue largely stems from the success of the iShares Bitcoin Trust (IBIT) and the Ethereum fund (ETHA). These funds have quickly become key contributors to the firm’s growing digital asset portfolio.

BlackRock IBIT Becomes Top Crypto ETF

Launched in January 2024, BlackRock’s iShares Bitcoin Trust (IBIT) has already raised $60.6 billion in net inflows. The fund charges a 0.25% fee, resulting in $218 million in revenue during its first year. According to VettaFi, IBIT has quickly become the largest crypto ETF globally and the 22nd largest ETF overall by assets.

With over $88 billion in assets under management, IBIT continues to dominate the market. It now holds nearly three-quarters of all US Bitcoin ETF flows.

ETHA Achieves 72.5% Market Share Quickly

BlackRock’s Ethereum fund, ETHA, has also seen remarkable success since its July 2024 debut. ETHA has attracted $13.4 billion in net inflows, securing a dominant 72.5% share of the US Ethereum ETF market. Like IBIT, the fund charges a 0.25% fee, adding another $42 million in revenue during its first year.

The rapid success of both IBIT and ETHA underscores BlackRock’s swift integration into the crypto finance space.

These funds have set a new standard for crypto ETF products.

BlackRock’s success in the crypto space is a reflection of growing investor interest. Its spot Bitcoin and Ethereum ETFs have become among the most profitable products in its portfolio.

XRP Price Has Surged 15% Anytime This Metric Appeared In The Past

Analysts note that the XRP price is showing unusual resilience, as a key metric previously seen before short-term rebounds reappears on its chart. In a new technical analysis, crypto market expert Dom points out that the latest market setup mirrors conditions that have led to at least a 10% surge each time this pattern emerges.    Recurring Metric Signals 10% XRP Price Surge In an X post released while XRP was still trading around $2.19, Dom highlighted a familiar technical signal, noting that past appearances of a bid-skew metric on the chart have consistently led to sharp price recoveries. As a reflection of its previous stability, the analyst stated the XRP had displayed incredible strength over the last several days, trading above the $2 level.  Related Reading: Analyst Claims XRP Price Will Surge To $220 Due To ETFs, But Is This Possible? Even as the Bitcoin price plummeted by more than $15,000 in the past few days, the analyst pointed out that XRP had maintained its local low from November 5. The accompanying chart highlights this divergence between XRP and BTC, where the altcoin’s structure holds its range despite the widespread market downturn.  Historically, when XRP has shown such strength during periods of Bitcoin weakness, Dom notes that it has signaled countless price reversals. The analyst further highlighted that over the past three months, every time the recurring bid-skew pattern appeared, XRP followed with an upswing of at least 10%.  If the historical metric holds, Dom’s analysis suggests there could be a continuation of XRP’s recent resilience, potentially driving its price up by 10% to at least $2.09. At the time of the analyst’s post, this target may have been higher, since XRP was still trading above $2. However, the cryptocurrency has since fallen below that threshold, reaching $1.9 at the time of writing.  XRP CVD Data Reveals Controlled Selling Pressure In a subsequent update, Dom shared a second chart, showing that XRP’s price had declined from its previous level of $2.19 to $2.01. He highlighted that this negative price action serves as a reminder that market dynamics don’t always follow textbook patterns. The recent decline in XRP also falls into roughly 15% of cases where typical orderbook signals fail to predict short-term moves.  Related Reading: Here’s How High The XRP Price Needs To Be To Flip Bitcoin In the Binance spot market, Dom points out evidence of “controlled” selling rather than forced liquidations. Unlike earlier periods where strong bids consistently led to upward price momentum, XRP’s Spot Cumulative Volume Delta (CVD) curves on Binance, Coinbase, Bybit, and other exchanges are sloping downwards. Moreover, among all the crypto exchanges, Binance has recorded the most decline.  Dom notes that controlled selling can be seen clearly in the smoothed cumulative volume lines on the chart. He warns that these developments are tricky to time. Moreover, without a sudden climax or sharp liquidation, bottoming could form slowly, making entries based on traditional reversal signals more challenging.
