Fact Check
The strongest evidence obtained is Yahoo Finance, which directly states that Bitcoin ETF flows turned positive and that IBIT added about $3 billion. This supports the main thrust of the claim. However, the claim attributes part of the data to Bloomberg and Lookonchain, and I did not secure those original primary materials in this run. The official iShares Bitcoin Trust ETF page confirms the fund but does not validate the specific numbers in the fetched content. Therefore, based on Yahoo Finance the claim is likely true, but confidence is limited by incomplete primary-source confirmation.
Summary
U.S. spot Bitcoin ETFs recorded $14.45 million in net inflows on April 24, extending the category’s recent recovery in demand. BlackRock’s IBIT led the day with $22.88 million in net inflows, while ARKB posted the largest outflow at $9.02 million. Total net assets across U.S. spot Bitcoin ETFs stood at $102.64 billion, and cumulative net inflows reached $58.56 billion. The new data adds a specific daily snapshot to earlier reports of an eight-day inflow streak through April 23 that had totaled about $2.1 billion.
