Greeks Live, a professional option investor tool platform, also reported a historic high in 24-hour option trading volume at $620 million.

Spot Bitcoin ETF funds also had a strong week with record trading volumes exceeding $2 billion. However, on February 29th, there was an outflow of nearly $600 million from Grayscale’s ETF fund, which, according to preliminary data from Farside Investors, caused the net inflow for all ten ETF funds to drop to $93.8 million since February 6th, the lowest level. 
BlackRock’s Bitcoin fund saw net inflows of $604 million on February 29th, surpassing Grayscale’s net outflows and providing more inflows than all other ETF funds combined for the day.
