Gold may be outperforming Bitcoin in price this year, but institutional investors are doubling down on BTC. BlackRock’s iShares Bitcoin Trust (IBIT) has already attracted nearly $7 billion in inflows in 2025, surpassing the SPDR Gold Trust (GLD), the world’s largest gold ETF.
This growing interest signals a powerful shift: institutions are betting on Bitcoin’s long-term growth, regardless of short-term volatility.
