Grayscale Bitcoin Trust

Spot

<p class="is-style-lead">Spot Bitcoin (<a href="https://crypto.news/price/bitcoin/" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">BTC</a>) exchange-traded funds (ETFs) recorded a net inflow of $45 million on May 28.&nbsp;</p>
<p>This extended their win rate to 11 straight days despite the Grayscale Bitcoin Trust ETF (GBTC) experiencing $105.2 million in outflows.</p>
<p>These ETF products collectively saw an inflow of 632 BTC. The positive capital flow was due to BlackRock’s and Fidelity’s products overshadowing the 1,550 BTC outflow from GBTC.&nbsp;</p>
<p>Notably, BlackRock’s iShares Bitcoin Trust (IBIT) witnessed inflows worth $102.5 million, the largest for any ETF. Meanwhile, Fidelity’s Wise Origin Fund (FBTC) recorded the second-highest inflow of $34.3 million.&nbsp;</p>
<p>Franklin Bitcoin ETF (EZBC) and VanEck Bitcoin Trust (HODL) reported zero inflows on the same day.</p>

<p>The massive outflow from GBTC resulted in the product losing its position as the largest spot ETF in terms of BTC holdings. This shift is <a href="https://crypto.news/grayscales-gbtc-sees-33-reduction-in-bitcoin-holdings-amid-9-26b-outflows/" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">attributed</a> to the higher costs associated with the ETF compared to other products, leading investors to withdraw funds.&nbsp;</p>
<p>Before <a href="https://crypto.news/grayscales-bitcoin-etf-hits-1-6b-outflows-hours-before-halving/" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">converting</a> to an ETF, Grayscale held over 600,000 BTC. Following 96 days of trading, BlackRock’s <a href="https://crypto.news/blackrock-ibit-etf-logs-first-zero-inflow-day-since-us-bitcoin-etf-launch/" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">IBIT</a> surpassed GBTC in BTC holdings, with 288,671 BTC worth $19.7 billion, compared to GBTC’s 287,488 BTC worth $19.6 billion.</p>
