BlackRock’s $1 Billion Bitcoin Purchase Pushes Holdings to $60.6B

BlackRock has made its largest Bitcoin purchase of the year, further solidifying its position as a dominant player in the cryptocurrency market.

BlackRock’s Growing Bitcoin Portfolio

Investment giant BlackRock recently purchased $1 billion worth of Bitcoin (BTC), bringing its total holdings to an impressive $60.6 billion. This latest acquisition, made on January 22, marks the company’s largest Bitcoin purchase in 2025 so far.

According to blockchain intelligence firm Arkham Intelligence, BlackRock now holds 572,616 BTC, strengthening its influence in the crypto space.

IBIT ETF Sees Strong Growth

BlackRock’s iShares Bitcoin ETF (IBIT) continues to dominate the Bitcoin exchange-traded fund (ETF) market. Despite experiencing record outflows earlier this month, IBIT rebounded strongly on January 24, surpassing $1 billion in trading volume within just two hours.

Data from SoSo Value shows that on the same day, IBIT recorded:

  • Net inflows of $155.69 million,
  • Cumulative inflows reaching $39.73 billion,
  • Trading volume of $2.78 billion.

With such rapid growth, IBIT has become the fastest-growing ETF in history. Bloomberg analyst James Seyffart even ranked it among the top 20 US ETF launches of all time in 2024.

Future Outlook for BlackRock and Bitcoin

BlackRock remains optimistic about Bitcoin’s future. In a recent Bloomberg interview, Robert Mitchnick, BlackRock’s Head of Digital Assets, emphasized that while 2024 was a groundbreaking year, Bitcoin adoption is still in its early stages.

CEO Larry Fink shares a bold vision, predicting that increased adoption could drive Bitcoin’s price to $500,000 to $700,000 per BTC.

Bitcoin Price Update

Despite BlackRock’s bullish stance, Bitcoin faced a rough start to the week. Its price recently dipped below the $100,000 mark, trading at $99,090—a 5.6% decline over the past 24 hours and now it is back above 100k$..
