BlackRock pins Bitcoin ETF as major theme alongside T-bills, tech stocks
BlackRock’s IBIT Bitcoin ETF has featured on the $13.5 trillion asset manager’s homepage, representing one of three major investment themes as the market heads into 2026.
BlackRock says its spot Bitcoin exchange-traded fund was one of its three biggest investment themes in 2025, putting it alongside Treasury bills and the largest US tech stocks.
The asset manager named its iShares Bitcoin Trust ETF (IBIT) alongside its ETF tracking Treasury bills and another tied to the “Magnificent 7” tech stocks, Apple, Microsoft, Amazon, Alphabet, Meta, Nvidia, and Tesla.
IBIT has attracted more than $25 billion in net inflows this year, ranking sixth among all ETFs and trailing broad index funds, despite the fund delivering a negative return so far for 2025.
