As of December 6, 2024, these ETFs collectively hold over 1.1 million BTC, making them the largest Bitcoin holders globally. This milestone was achieved in less than a year since their launch, marking a significant moment in the financial investment landscape. According to Bloomberg ETF analyst Eric Balchunas, the ETFs now hold approximately 1,104,534 BTC. The ETFs include prominent funds like $IBIT, $FBTC, $GBTC, $ARKB, $BITB, $HODL, $BRRR, $BTCO, and $EZBC.
