Bitwise Chief Investment Officer: Still expects Bitcoin Spot ETF to attract record inflows in Q4.

BlockBeats news, on October 8, the encryption asset management company Bitwise predicts that the U.S. Bitcoin Spot ETF will attract record fund inflows in the fourth quarter, with the total for the year expected to surpass that of 2024. Earlier this year, Bitwise Chief Investment Officer Matt Hougan had predicted that the fund inflows for Bitcoin ETF in 2025 would exceed the inaugural year scale of $36 billion. So far, the actual inflow is about $22.5 billion, and at this rate, it will reach $30 billion by the end of the year—slightly lower than the first-year performance. However, in a memo to clients on Tuesday, Hougan expressed no concerns, expecting a strong fourth quarter to drive fund inflows to a new historical high, with three major factors driving this event: the release by wealth management institutions, the big pump in Bitcoin prices, and the "hedging against currency devaluation" narrative.
