As of press time, Fidelity’s holdings amount to around $11.1 billion; an additional inflow of approximately $1.3 billion would take it to the top 10. On Sept. 27, it saw $227 million in inflows in a single day. However, it has mostly seen flat flows over the past month, with just 22 days of net outflows since its launch in January.
This shift highlights the increasing involvement of traditional financial institutions in the crypto market. Fidelity’s potential move into the top 10 illustrates a broader trend of institutional adoption of Bitcoin. The company’s holdings are primarily through its US ETF and custody services.
The top Bitcoin holders include entities like Coinbase and Binance, with unspent Coinbase rewards from 2009 leading the list at over 1 million BTC. MicroStrategy is also a significant holder, though it has been surpassed by BlackRock’s IBIT ETF, which holds 365,310 BTC.
