BlackRock's iShares Bitcoin Trust (IBIT) is a U.S. spot Bitcoin ETF that holds bitcoin directly and tracks its price, charging a 0.25% management fee.
No evidence-backed relationships are recorded.
Strategy and BlackRock's IBIT trust hold 1.65 million bitcoin worth about $140.8 billion, 7.87% of the 21 million cap. Strategy owns its coins as a corporate treasury, while IBIT's belong to a trust whose balance moves with share redemptions.
Reality
BlackRock's IBIT took in $450 million last week while all US spot bitcoin ETFs together netted $241 million, about 90% less than the week before. That keeps a three-week inflow streak alive on one fund's buyers heading into October.

Bitcoin sat at $85,276 on Sunday, below the $86,000 area it hit before payrolls, even as Glassnode put October Fed hike odds at 22% from 66%. This week's fund-flow data will show whether ETF buyers are taking over from the short covering that lifted it.
Reality
Bitcoin's CMBI benchmark closed near $83,113, just under the $84,000-$85,000 band where Glassnode counts more long-term holder coins than at any other price. With futures leverage at its lowest since March, spot buyers and sellers will decide whether the band holds.
Reality
Fidelity and BlackRock supplied about 97% of the $433 million that US spot bitcoin ETFs took in on September 18, and the week they rescued still finished at plus $6.2 million, worth about 77 bitcoin.

Cloture on H.R. 3633 failed 49-50 on Sept. 15 with every yes vote Republican. Add the four Republican noes back to the yes column and the count reaches 53, still seven short of the 60 the Senate requires.
Reality
ETHA's $149m on September 11 was nearly 69% of the day's $216m sector inflow, but its share of August's $1.75bn was closer to 57%, and the $13bn cumulative figure is being measured against a sector asset total.
Reality
Spot bitcoin ETFs pulled $606 million on August 20, and IBIT kept $503 million of it. The month's record total is mostly one issuer, and the first fund liquidation shows why.
