What Do Analysts Think About Bitcoin ETFs?

First of all, CoinShares research director James Butterfill said, "Our estimates for Bitcoin ETFs were much more modest at 14 billion dollars for the first year. However, ETF inflows have clearly exceeded our expectations."

Butterfill among ETFs has stated that BlackRock Bitcoin ETF reached $61 billion in assets under management (AUM) in less than a year, while it took 20 years for the gold ETF to reach $33 billion in AUM.

Butterfill also added that the success of ETFs contributed to the launch of Bitcoin at a historically low price period.

VettaFi Sector and Industry Research President Roxanna Islam, "Just as we expected, we were anticipating a successful Bitcoin ETF launch, and it attracted much greater interest than we expected a year later. And we expect the momentum to continue in 2025."

Bitwise Head of Investments Matt Hougan said that US spot Bitcoin ETFs are the best performing ETFs of all time.

Hougan "Bitcoin is the best performing asset in history. ETFs also achieve great success in their first year, and in the second year, inflows tend to surpass the first year's results. Because access to Bitcoin ETFs is still prohibited for most professional investors. This will change in 2025, and I expect the 2025 inflows to significantly exceed those of 2024." said.

Finally, 21Shares analyst Matt Mena, stating that Bitcoin ETFs have achieved great success, said, "I was extremely optimistic about the US Bitcoin ETFs that the crypto community has been discussing and expecting approval for over a decade. I was expecting a net inflow of 15 billion dollars, but the ETFs exceeded my expectations completely."
