BlackRock Reports 63% Increase in Crypto ETF Assets to Nearly $80 Billion in Q3 2026
BlackRock, the world's largest asset manager, announced a significant increase in its digital assets category, reporting assets under management (AUM) of approximately $79.6 to $80 billion during the third quarter of 2026. This marks a 63% rise from $48.8 billion at the end of the previous quarter, although the total remains below the peak of around $104 billion reached in September 2025.
The growth in BlackRock's crypto business was primarily driven by strong inflows and a notable rally in Bitcoin prices, which surged over 42% during the quarter, climbing from approximately $58,564 to around $84,000. The firm recorded net inflows of $7.9 billion into its digital asset exchange-traded products, the highest quarterly figure since the third quarter of 2025. The iShares Bitcoin Trust (IBIT) and the iShares Ethereum Trust (ETHA) were the main contributors to this growth, with IBIT accounting for the majority of BlackRock's crypto holdings, which rose by about 62% according to Arkham Intelligence.
Despite the impressive quarterly gains, BlackRock's digital assets segment remains a small fraction of its overall business, which reported total net inflows of $205 billion and a record AUM of $15.5 trillion. The firm emphasized that while price increases can inflate AUM figures, the $7.9 billion in net inflows indicates a strong investor interest in the crypto market. However, the volatility of cryptocurrency prices means that the AUM could quickly decrease if there is a market pullback.
