Grayscale spot Bitcoin ETF has faced challenges since converting from a trust to a spot ETF in January. The transition led to over $17 billion in withdrawals, partly due to its higher fees compared to competitors and the wave of bankruptcies in the crypto industry over the past two years, which prompted companies to withdraw funds to repay creditors.
On Friday, GBTC recorded inflows of $31.6 million, according to Farside Investors. Currently, Grayscale manages over $18 billion in assets. In March, Grayscale announced plans to seek approval from the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) to create a new, lower-fee Bitcoin Mini Trust, though the fees for this new fund are yet to be decided.
May has been a positive month for spot Bitcoin ETFs overall. Bloomberg’s senior ETF analyst, Eric Balchunas, reported $1.3 billion in inflows over two weeks, reversing the previous month’s outflows and bringing the net value of these ETFs to approximately $12.3 billion since their inception.
Balchunas highlighted that fluctuations in ETF inflows and outflows are normal, advising traders to remain calm and view these changes as typical market behavior. He remains optimistic about the long-term prospects for spot Bitcoin ETFs.
Grayscale spot Bitcoin ETF recovery in inflows and the broader positive trend for spot Bitcoin ETFs suggest growing investor confidence in these financial products despite the recent volatility and industry challenges.
