IBIT’s net assets reached $97.32 billion, with a Bitcoin market share of 4.03%. The trust traded near parity, with a premium/discount rate of 0.10%, showing steady investor demand. Its daily trading volume here reached 55.76 million shares, valued at $3.84 billion.
The ETF has maintained consistent inflows across 2024 and 2025, even during periods of price correction. Notably, this contrasts with mid-August, when IBIT contributed to 70% of the $800 million in outflows, dragging Bitcoin down 9% from its all-time high of $124K.
Analyst Aixbt described shorting into ETF inflows as a “bold move,” citing low profit-taking and ongoing institutional accumulation. The data suggests Bitcoin’s consolidation could evolve into a bullish short squeeze as liquidity builds and spot bids remain firm.
