Spot Bitcoin ETF Trading Marks $10 Billion Since Launch

Grayscale Investments and BlackRock, eminent players in the field, have spearheaded the competition. Notably, Grayscale’s GBTC commanded a substantial trading volume of $5.174 billion in the first three days, while BlackRock’s IBIT closely followed with $1.997 billion. Fidelity‘s FBTC secured a noteworthy trading volume of $1.479 billion during the same period.

ETF analyst Eric Balchunas from Bloomberg observes BlackRock’s escalating position in Bitcoin holdings, anticipating a potential surpassing of MicroStrategy in the near future. The combined trading volume of BlackRock and Fidelity’s spot Bitcoin ETFs already exceeds $3.1 billion, primarily driven by fund inflows.

However, an intriguing trend emerged as Grayscale’s GBTC and ProShares‘ BITO, despite contributing over 60% to the total trading volume, experienced substantial fund outflows. Investors, recuperating from losses over the past year, seemingly opted to sell their holdings.

In particular, Grayscale GBTC saw a noteworthy outflow of funds, reaching $594 million on the third day of Bitcoin spot ETF trading, culminating in a total outflow of $1.173 billion within the initial three days.

As the dust settled on the third day of spot Bitcoin ETF trading, it became evident that Grayscale, BlackRock, and Fidelity’s offerings had cemented themselves as the top contenders, securing nearly 90% of the burgeoning market.
