On the other hand, Grayscale’s GBTC currently holds an estimated 350,252 BTC, worth $22.04 billion, but has been experiencing <a href="https://thenewscrypto.com/grayscales-gbtc-outflows-slow-analysts-caution-on-further-decline/" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">daily outflows</a> averaging $277 million. If current trends persist, BlackRock is expected to surpass Grayscale’s holdings by mid-April, potentially accelerating if BlackRock’s inflows revert to higher levels seen in previous weeks.

This impending shift underscores BlackRock’s growing influence in cryptocurrency and its status as a key player in institutional Bitcoin investment. Notably, as of March 10, BlackRock’s ETF had already surpassed <a href="https://thenewscrypto.com/blackrocks-bitcoin-etf-surpasses-microstrategys-holdings/" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">MicroStrategy’s holdings</a>, further signaling institutional adoption of Bitcoin.
MicroStrategy, known for its bullish stance on Bitcoin. Currently holds 214,246 BTC, having augmented its portfolio by an additional 9,000 BTC on March 19. However, If BlackRock surpasses Grayscale, it will stick to its position as the largest institutional holder of Bitcoin globally.
Further, discussions abound regarding the potential impact of this transition on Bitcoin’s price, particularly given the substantial outflows from GBTC. Bitcoin’s current price stands at $67,255, with a market cap of $1.32 trillion. The price of BTC surges over 4.46% in the last 24 hours following a week of decline.
