  • JPMorgan’s TVL in Bitcoin ETFs increased 64% and currently stands at over $343 million.
  • Bitcoin is apparently recovering and banks see no reason not to become active again.

JPMorgan Chase has announced its holdings in the iShares Bitcoin Trust ETF Fintel data increased by 64.26% to $343 million. The bank purchased 2,067,134 additional shares of IBIT, the world’s largest Bitcoin ETF by assets. Their total holdings now stand at 5,284,190 shares, up from 3,217,056 shares, valued at $302 million, representing significant growth in their investment.

IBIT itself manages over $80 billion in net assets and has recorded cumulative net inflows of over $64.5 billion. JPMorgan is increasing its stake, showing that the bank is betting more on Bitcoin ETFs as an asset class. This move comes after the bank announced in June that it would accept Bitcoin ETFs as collateral.

The latest purchase comes amid a recovery in the Bitcoin ETF spot market in the US. Inflows are back after a six-day run of outflows that saw more than $2 billion flow out of ETFs between October 29 and November 5. On November 6, Bitcoin spot ETFs recorded net inflows of $240 million, with IBIT alone receiving more than $112 million, driving the inflows.

Bitcoin ETF TVL grows to $343 million

The bank’s growing participation reflects increasing institutional confidence in Bitcoin ETFs. The recent purchases show that the company is actively expanding its crypto exposure and making IBIT an important part of its portfolio. As of September 30, 2025, the bank increased its holdings to $343 million, even in a volatile market.

This move follows Bitcoin’s price fluctuations since late October. Bitcoin fell from over $116,000 on October 28th to around $98,900 on November 5th. The losses came after the crypto market’s drop on October 10, which showed a period of downward pressure on Bitcoin and related exchange-traded funds that had already triggered some previous sell-offs.

Despite the recent volatility, analysts and institutional players remain cautiously optimistic. JPMorgan expects Bitcoin could reach $170,000 in six to 12 months. The company is buying heavily in IBIT and has a clear strategy to strengthen its asset positions and benefit from the market recovery and growing investor demand.

Bitcoin signals recovery rally

On-chain data from CryptoQuant highlights trends in losses realized by traders. Crypto analyst Ali Martinez notes that Bitcoin typically recovers when realized losses fall below -12%. Current data shows that the margin is around -11%, suggesting that selling pressure is easing and heralding a possible recovery phase supported by investor confidence in Bitcoin price performance.

Ali’s chart shows the real price of Bitcoin along with profit and loss trends over time. Historically, declines close to -12% have corresponded to market lows, followed by recovery periods. As of November 7, 2025, the real price of Bitcoin is around $114,351 while the market price is around $101,551, indicating minor losses and renewed buying interest.

Institutional investors, including JPMorgan, are expected to closely monitor these signals. IBIT inflows, previous recovery trends and recent technical signs can guide their strategies and allocation decisions. Steady performance and gradual inflows can increase confidence in Bitcoin ETFs.
