IBIT's $665M day was ~126% of all spot bitcoin ETF net flow; Fidelity and Grayscale lost $138.5M; BTC still ~$82K

BlackRock's iShares Bitcoin Trust (IBIT) took in $665.2M on Monday, its biggest day since October 2025. All US spot bitcoin ETFs combined took in $526.6M.

So IBIT was ~126% of the category's net flow while Fidelity and Grayscale lost $138.5M. That one day is ~1% of IBIT's $66.4B in assets, yet bitcoin still sits near $82K. Some of it is just money switching funds.
