<ul> 
 <li>Grayscale’s market share in spot bitcoin ETF trading volume has decreased, with BlackRock and Fidelity gaining dominance.</li> 
 <li>BlackRock and Fidelity’s ETFs now hold almost 80% of the total assets under management for all spot bitcoin ETFs, excluding Grayscale.</li> 
</ul>  
<p>Grayscale’s dominance in the spot bitcoin ETF trading volume has been challenged as BlackRock and Fidelity’s ETFs continue to grow in market share. </p> 
<p>Grayscale’s ETF, which had been leading in daily trading volume since its inception in January, now captures less than 20% of the total trading volume. </p> 
<h2 id="rising-competitors">Rising Competitors</h2> 
<p>On the other hand, BlackRock and Fidelity’s ETFs combined accounted for 69% of the total trading volume last Friday. </p> 
<p>When spot <a href="https://crypto.ro/en/cryptocurrencies/bitcoin/">Bitcoin</a> ETFs began trading earlier this year, Grayscale’s product consistently absorbed about half of all trading activity. </p> 
<p>However, BlackRock’s spot bitcoin ETF alone accounted for nearly 47% of all trading volume last Friday. </p> 
<p>Together, BlackRock and Fidelity’s products held almost 80% of the total assets under management for all spot bitcoin ETFs, excluding Grayscale. </p> 
<h2 id="grayscale-s-market-position">Grayscale’s Market Position</h2> 
<p>Despite the decrease in market share, Grayscale’s total assets under management (AUM) have rebounded, likely due to the increasing price of bitcoin. </p> 
<p>Meanwhile, BlackRock and Fidelity’s ETFs have been steadily growing in size due to robust levels of capital inflows. </p> 
<p>According to BitMEX Research, “The assets of the ETFs excluding [Grayscale] are now over $28 billion. This is now larger than GBTC’s assets for the first time.” </p> 
<p>Grayscale’s spot bitcoin ETF charges a higher management fee of 1.5% compared to BlackRock’s 0.12% on assets under $5 billion and 0.25% afterward. </p> 
<p>Fidelity is not charging any fees until August. </p> 
<p>Grayscale has not yet responded to requests for comment.</p>
