Grayscale Bitcoin Trust

<p>Analyst Eric Balchunas has dismissed the current commotion over the alleged failure of Bitcoin ETFs. He stated that these items have been identified recently again as part of the inflows. Now imagine a situation where the skeptics were ready to pen down such items following a series of poor performances.</p>
<p>Balchunas’ statistics show that the year-to-date inflows of Bitcoin ETFs have returned to $17.1 billion. The expert made fun of both supporters and detractors of cryptocurrencies for being overly “reactionary,” pointing out that equities investors often behave differently.</p>

<p>On Tuesday, <a href="https://www.thecoinrepublic.com/2024/09/11/bitcoin-etfs-rally-with-117m-boost-ethereum-adds-11m/" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">US spot Bitcoin ETFs saw a resurgence</a> with $117 million in inflows. Leading this was the $63 million net infusion from Fidelity’s Bitcoin Fund (FBTC). This follows several huge withdrawals from some of the biggest cryptocurrency ETFs in recent weeks.</p>
<p>It was on Tuesday that saw the highest net investment into Fidelity’s Bitcoin Fund, to the tune of $63 million. This has also raised the total net fund inflows to $9.5 billion just after eight months of its operation.&nbsp;</p>
<p>Currently, FBTC has $10.5 billion in assets. Making it the world’s third-largest Bitcoin ETF after Grayscale Bitcoin Trust (GBTC) and BlackRock’s iShares Bitcoin Trust (IBIT). Other funds had positive returns too.</p>
<p>Grayscale’s Bitcoin Mining Trust pulled in $41 million, and ARK Invests Bitcoin ETF had $13 million. While numerous ETFs reported Bitcoin buying in a single day, the biggest one, BlackRock’s IBIT, as well as several other small ones, displayed no inflows.</p>
<p>Even with recent losses, investors are clearly still interested, as seen by the surge in inflows. After significant outflows that began at the end of August and persisted throughout the first few days of September, inflows resumed on Tuesday. During this time, Bitcoin and Ethereum money worth over $1 billion US were taken out.</p>
<p>BlackRock’s IBIT, had its second withdrawal since its inception in January. In an effort to shield themselves from lower prices, short-Bitcoin products were ‘topped up’ with $3.9 million from cautious investors.</p>
<p>Bitcoin, in particular, suffered greatly in September, which is why this month is called “Rektember” in the crypto world.</p>
<h2 class="wp-block-heading" id="h-restoring-confidence-among-the-investors"><strong>Restoring Confidence Among the Investors</strong></h2>
<p>There were certain instances and skepticism in the initial days, but gradually, the concept is picking up. The withdrawal percentage from the total capital during the past week and month was less than 1% AUM.</p>
<p>Though analysts have previously expressed worries over these ETFs’ performance, they are currently stabilizing. Eric Balchunas of Bloomberg claims that Bitcoin ETFs have “done a great job” of preventing withdrawals amid volatile market conditions, which has contributed to the recovery of investor trust.</p>
<p>In addition, Bitwise CIO Matt Hougan said that, out of all new ETF categories in history, financial advisers have adopted Bitcoin ETFs at the quickest rates. The quick adoption shows that despite the market’s volatility, financial experts are becoming more and more interested.</p>
