IShares Bitcoin Trust Registered’s IBIT logged another hefty inflow on May 06, 2026, attracting $251.43 million in new capital. The move lifts the fund’s assets under management to $66.97 billion, with the latest flow equal to roughly 0.38% of AUM, underscoring sustained institutional appetite for spot Bitcoin exposure.

The related asset, BTC-USD, is currently trading at $80,937.78 after climbing about 18.05% over the past three months. While that advance is less explosive than earlier in the cycle, the 1-day technical backdrop still flashes a bullish tone, with the signal sitting at Buy.

For IBIT, the combination of steady price appreciation and continuing inflows suggests investors are buying dips rather than backing away from volatility. With Bitcoin holding near record territory, the latest cash surge positions the ETF as a key barometer of how comfortable mainstream portfolios have become with direct crypto market risk.
