JEPQ previously held the record for the fastest exchange-traded fund, reaching $10 billion in assets under management (AUM) in 647 trading days, taking around three years.
BlackRock’s IBIT and Fidelity’s FBTC passed $10 billion AUM in 49 and 77 trading days, respectively.
The spot bitcoin exchange-traded funds (ETFs) from BlackRock and Fidelity beat the previous record for a fund reaching $10 billion in assets under management in a fraction of the amount of time it took the previous record-holder, as noted by Bloomberg's senior ETF analyst Eric Balchunas on the social media platform X.
"Prior to the bitcoin ETFs, the record speed for an ETF to reach $10 billion in assets was held by JEPQ who did it in 647 trading days (nearly three years). IBIT got there in 49 days, FBTC in 77 days," Balchunas wrote.
JEPQ is the JPMorgan Nasdaq Equity Premium Income ETF. It is an actively managed fund that uses the Nasdaq-100 Index as a benchmark, trades equity-linked notes and sells call options to provide income to its holders, according to Yahoo Finance. JEPQ shares trade at $53.42 as of 10:30 a.m. ET (14:30 UTC) on May 10, seeing year-to-date returns of 10.14%. Its net assets are $12.37 billion after launching on May 3, 2022.
BlackRock's iShares Bitcoin Trust IBIT and the Fidelity Wise Origin Bitcoin Fund FBTC launched on Jan. 11, 2024. Both funds give investors exposure to bitcoin's price movements while omitting the need to hold the asset itself.
IBIT crossed $10 billion in total inflows on March 11, 2024, and $15 billion in total inflows on April 12.
IBIT maintained $17.28 billion in assets under management as of May 6, according to The Block's Data Dashboard.
