<p style="color: #252525;"><span style="font-weight: 400; color: #252525;">Bloomberg ETF analyst Eric Balchunas shared data on X showing that the new spot Bitcoin ETFs (excluding Grayscale’s GBTC) saw a spike of 34% in their daily trading volume at the end of the fifth day of trading. Interestingly, when it comes to weekly capital inflows among all U.S. ETFs, BlackRock and Fidelity’s Bitcoin ETFs rank fourth and fifth, respectively.</span></p> 
<blockquote class="twitter-tweet" data-width="550" data-dnt="true"> 
 <p lang="en" dir="ltr">This is interesting, the Newborn Nine actually saw a 34% jump in volume today vs yesterday. Normally with a hyped up launch you see volume steadily decrease each day post-launch, rare to see it reverse back up. All but one saw jump too but GBTC change flat so wasn't a volatility… <a href="https://t.co/f6xOsLRWjr">pic.twitter.com/f6xOsLRWjr</a></p>

<p style="color: #252525;"><span style="font-weight: 400; color: #252525;">The Bitcoin ETFs from BlackRock and Fidelity each had over $1 billion in assets under management at the end of the fifth day of trading. This is thanks to investors flooding the new funds.</span></p> 
<h5 style="color: #252525;"><strong><span style="color: #252525;">Why is Bitcoin down?</span></strong></h5> 
<p style="color: #252525;"><span style="font-weight: 400; color: #252525;">Spot Bitcoin ETFs have put up impressive numbers since they went live. However, Bitcoin’s <a href="https://www.coingecko.com/en/coins/bitcoin" target="_blank" rel="noopener">price</a> has continued to slide, moving to $41,159.21, which is a -10.60% decline in the last 7 days.</span></p>

<p style="color: #252525;"><span style="font-weight: 400; color: #252525;">The purest <a href="https://www.altcoinbuzz.io/bitcoin-and-crypto-guide/could-the-upcoming-bitcoin-halving-fail-us/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">explanation</a> for this decline, among others, involves Grayscale Bitcoin Trust. Grayscale GBTC was successfully converted into an ETF last week. This presented its backers with a chance to make profits on the $28 billion of bitcoin it had amassed. GBTC redemptions have exceeded $1.6 billion over the last five days.</span></p> 
<p style="color: #252525;"><span style="font-weight: 400; color: #252525;">JPMorgan analysts led by Nikolaos Panigirtzoglou warned that if Grayscale’s investors continue to take profits, Bitcoin could face a further price slump.</span></p>
