ProShares’ ProShares Ultra Bitcoin ETF, BITU, attracted $3,398,863 in new money on December 19, 2025, signaling renewed appetite for leveraged crypto exposure. The latest inflow represents roughly 0.52% of the fund’s $658.86 million in assets under management (AUM), a meaningful single-day bump for a vehicle designed to amplify Bitcoin’s short-term moves.
The related asset, BTC-USD, is currently trading around $87,514, extending a powerful rally over the past quarter. While the precise three-month percentage gain was not specified, the surge in price underscores why demand is building for tools like BITU that magnify directional bets. Near-term momentum remains in focus, with the 1-day technical signal flashing bullish, a backdrop that often encourages speculative inflows into leveraged products.
The scale of Wednesday’s flow—though a small slice of total AUM—highlights how quickly sentiment can pivot in the leveraged ETF complex as traders position for further upside or hedge short-term corrections. If Bitcoin’s volatility persists, BITU is likely to remain a favored instrument for investors seeking amplified exposure rather than spot holdings alone.
