Although the ETF launch has done well under normal circumstances, it seems to have <a href="https://www.newsbtc.com/bitcoin-news/bitcoin-climax-analyst-flags-market-peak-amid-spot-etf-hype-cooling-off/" target="_blank" rel="noopener nofollow">fallen short</a> of the huge <a href="https://bitcoinist.com/robert-kiyosaki-predicts-bitcoin-spot-etf-approval/" target="_blank" rel="noopener ">numbers projected by many market analysts</a>. According to Blackrock CEO Larry Fink, the new ETFs are just the first step toward a new financial world. 
“ETFs are step one in the technological revolution in the financial markets. Step two is going to be the tokenization of every financial asset,” he said in an interview with CNBC.

The report from BitMEX Research also revealed the dynamics between the first and second days of trading. As stated earlier, the first day of trading ended with almost $4.6 billion in trading volume and a $625.8 net inflow. However, trading volume fell to just over $3.1 billion on the second day, with BitMEX data revealing a lower net inflow of $205 million. 
The majority of the second-day outflow can be attributed to the Grayscale Bitcoin Trust. Despite <a href="https://bitcoinist.com/over-4-billion-traded-as-spot-bitcoin-etfs-go-hot/" target="_blank" rel="noopener ">leading the market</a> with about $1.9 billion in trading volume on the first day, the fund failed to register a net inflow, ending the day with $95.1 million in net outflow. This outflow continued into day two, with the Grayscale Bitcoin Trust registering over $484 million net outflow.&nbsp;
