BlackRock's iShares Bitcoin Trust (IBIT) has surpassed $20 billion worth of assets under management just six months after its launch.  

Nate Geraci, president of the ETF Store, claims that investors and institutional investors are "clearly" showing up to the party based on the recent streak of inflows. 

On July 16, IBIT logged $260 million worth of fresh inflows. Fidelity Wise Origin Bitcoin Fund (FBTC) came in a distant second place with $61 million worth of inflows. 

Overall, spot Bitcoin ETF products saw more than $422 million worth of inflows on Thursday.  

Meanwhile, the price of the leading cryptocurrency has reclaimed the $66,000 level.
