Retail Investors Fuel Bitcoin ETF Boom, Dominating 80% of Market Demand

2024-10-25 17:00

Latest Binance research reveals that Bitcoin ETFs now account for an average of 26.4% of BTC’s spot trading volume, with occasional peaks reaching up to 62.6%. This shift has contributed to Bitcoin’s growing market dominance.

The performance of Bitcoin ETFs has outpaced early Gold ETFs, with net inflows exceeding $18.9 billion in less than a year. Over 1,200 institutions have invested in Bitcoin ETFs, significantly higher than the 95 institutions that backed Gold ETFs in their early stages.

Bitcoin ETF Investments are Dominated by Retail Investors 

Retail investors represent 80% of the demand for Bitcoin ETFs, while institutional involvement has grown by 30% since the first quarter. Investment advisors have seen the largest growth, with a 44.2% increase in holdings.

Although it may take years to fully integrate Bitcoin ETFs into broker-dealers, banks, and advisors, this gradual process is expected to drive wider adoption in the medium term, according to a Binance Research report shared with BeInCrypto.

Investor interest in cryptocurrencies via ETFs continues to rise, with 45% of ETF investors planning to allocate to digital assets in the coming year. This positions crypto ETFs as the second most popular asset class after equities, overtaking bonds and alternative investments in demand.

“Gold racked up over 1 million ounces in ETF inflows last week, the biggest since October 2022—seriously wild! History shows when gold’s hype cools down, Bitcoin usually goes bananas. BTC’s chillin’ between $50K and $70K since April, while gold and silver keep mooning. With a solid $2 billion flowing into Bitcoin ETFs recently, peeps are hyped that after the US elections, BTC might finally blast past that all-time high,” Influencer Mario Nawfal wrote in an X post (formerly Twitter)

The research also shows that millennials are dominating the crypto ETF investments demographic. More than 62% of investors in this space belong to this demographic. In contrast, Baby Boomers have shown significantly lower interest.

ETF inflows have become a key market indicator for cryptocurrencies, as they often signal shifts in market trends. Fluctuations in ETF inflows and outflows have been closely linked to price movements in recent months.
