TLDR

  • BlackRock earned over $260 million in revenue from its Bitcoin and Ethereum ETFs in less than two years.
  • The iShares Bitcoin Trust (IBIT) generated $218 million in fees during its first year.
  • BlackRock’s Ethereum fund, ETHA, earned $42 million in fees within its first year.
  • IBIT has grown into the largest crypto ETF globally with over $88 billion in assets.
  • ETHA holds a 72.5% market share of US Ethereum ETF flows, attracting $13.4 billion in net inflows.

BlackRock has generated over $260 million in annual revenue from its Bitcoin and Ethereum exchange-traded funds (ETFs) in less than two years. The revenue largely stems from the success of the iShares Bitcoin Trust (IBIT) and the Ethereum fund (ETHA). These funds have quickly become key contributors to the firm’s growing digital asset portfolio.

BlackRock IBIT Becomes Top Crypto ETF

Launched in January 2024, BlackRock’s iShares Bitcoin Trust (IBIT) has already raised $60.6 billion in net inflows. The fund charges a 0.25% fee, resulting in $218 million in revenue during its first year. According to VettaFi, IBIT has quickly become the largest crypto ETF globally and the 22nd largest ETF overall by assets.

With over $88 billion in assets under management, IBIT continues to dominate the market. It now holds nearly three-quarters of all US Bitcoin ETF flows.

ETHA Achieves 72.5% Market Share Quickly

BlackRock’s Ethereum fund, ETHA, has also seen remarkable success since its July 2024 debut. ETHA has attracted $13.4 billion in net inflows, securing a dominant 72.5% share of the US Ethereum ETF market. Like IBIT, the fund charges a 0.25% fee, adding another $42 million in revenue during its first year.

The rapid success of both IBIT and ETHA underscores BlackRock’s swift integration into the crypto finance space.

These funds have set a new standard for crypto ETF products.

BlackRock’s success in the crypto space is a reflection of growing investor interest. Its spot Bitcoin and Ethereum ETFs have become among the most profitable products in its portfolio.

The Federal Reserve cut interest rates by 25 basis points, and Powell said this was a risk management cut

PANews reported on September 18th, according to the Securities Times, that at 2:00 AM Beijing time on September 18th, the Federal Reserve announced a 25 basis point interest rate cut, lowering the federal funds rate from 4.25%-4.50% to 4.00%-4.25%, in line with market expectations. The Fed's interest rate announcement triggered a sharp market reaction, with the three major US stock indices rising briefly before quickly plunging. The US dollar index plummeted, briefly hitting a new low since 2025, before rebounding sharply, turning a decline into an upward trend. The sharp market volatility was closely tied to the subsequent monetary policy press conference held by Federal Reserve Chairman Powell. He stated that the 50 basis point rate cut lacked broad support and that there was no need for a swift adjustment. Today's move could be viewed as a risk-management cut, suggesting the Fed will not enter a sustained cycle of rate cuts. Powell reiterated the Fed's unwavering commitment to maintaining its independence. Market participants are currently unaware of the risks to the Fed's independence. The latest published interest rate dot plot shows that the median expectation of Fed officials is to cut interest rates twice more this year (by 25 basis points each), one more than predicted in June this year. At the same time, Fed officials expect that after three rate cuts this year, there will be another 25 basis point cut in 2026 and 2027.
