Asset management firm Grayscale Investments has recorded over $20.4 billion in outflows from its spot Bitcoin and Ether exchange-traded funds (ETFs) combined.
The Grayscale Bitcoin&nbsp;Trust ETF (GBTC) has lost an average of approximately $137.7 million daily in almost seven months since its launch on Jan. 11. As of July 29, GBTC recorded total outflows of $18.86 billion.
In contrast, all other nine spot Bitcoin (<a href="https://cointelegraph.com/bitcoin-price">BTC</a>)&nbsp;ETFs simultaneously approved in the United States maintain a positive balance, as shown below.

The newly launched Grayscale Ethereum Trust (ETHE) showcased a performance comparable to GBTC in terms of investment outflows.

The Ether (<a href="https://cointelegraph.com/ethereum-price">ETH</a>)&nbsp;fund lost $1.72 billion in five days, bringing Grayscale’s total crypto ETF outflows to $20.58 billion. In the process, Grayscale shed 18.7% of its initial seed funds of nearly $9.2 billion.

On July 30, Steno Research senior analyst Mads Eberhardt claimed that massive outflows from the Grayscale’s ETHE should subside by Aug. 2. However, Eberhardt sees the strong early outflows as a reason for bullishness in the short term.

“The Grayscale Bitcoin ETF outflow subsided significantly following the eleventh trading session,” he said. 
<blockquote data-ct-non-breakable="true">
 “Since the Grayscale Ethereum ETF has experienced a much higher outflow relative to AUM [assets under management], we believe that peak outflow will occur sometime this week.”

Pseudonymous trader Evanss6 echoed Eberhardt’s view by comparing the launch of spot BTC and ETH ETFs side-by-side.

According to Evan, the outflows from Bitcoin ETFs bottomed on the seventh trading day, and the bottom occurred when cumulative GBTC outflows reached 13.2% of the original fund, adding that Bitcoin proceeded to “rip [approximately] 92% in 50 days” following the bottoming of GBTC outflows.
