This shows amid the massive demand, the regulated ETF products have scooped up more than 17,009 BTCs this week alone. This clearly highlights strong institutional participation in BTC ETFs<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Ark Invest\u2019s ARKB continues to lead the pack for the second consecutive day with more than $203 million in inflows on Friday. Fidelity\u2019s FBTC stood second with $123 million in inflows, while BlackRock\u2019s IBIT stood third at $111.7 million in inflows per the data from Farside Investors<\/a>. These three players alone took away 6,661 Bitcoins from the open market on Friday.<\/p>\n

In comparison to the daily BTC production of 450 Bitcoins, the demand is very high. Along with the 17,000 Bitcoins scooped by exchange-traded-funds, MicroStrategy<\/a> alone took away 7,000 Bitcoins this week.<\/p>\n
