US Bitcoin ETFs See Positive Net Inflows After Week-Long Outflows
Recently, US spot Bitcoin ETFs experienced a positive change in trend, bringing in $31 million in net inflows after a seven-day period of continuous net outflows across most funds. This shift in momentum saw three funds attracting inflows, two facing outflows, and the remaining funds recording no flows for the day.
– Fidelity’s FBTC led with inflows of $49 million
– Bitwise’s BITB reported $15 million in inflows
– VanEeck’s HODL experienced net inflows of $4 million
– Grayscale’s GBTC saw net outflows of $30.3 million
– ARK Invest and 21Shares’ ARKB recorded $6 million in net outflows
– BlackRock’s IBIT, the largest spot Bitcoin ETF in terms of net asset value, reported zero net flows
– Other funds such as BTCO, BRRR, EZBC, and BTCW managed by Invesco, Galaxy Digital, Valkyrie, Franklin Templeton, and WisdomTree, respectively, also recorded zero net flows
– The 11 spot ETFs have attracted a total net inflow of more than $14.4 billion
Spot Ether ETF Launch Anticipated
While spot Bitcoin ETFs have been trading for almost six months, their Ether counterparts are yet to make an appearance. Speculations suggested a potential launch in July, but the US Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) has remained tight-lipped about it.
– SEC Chief Gary Gensler mentioned that the spot Ether ETF process in the US is progressing smoothly
– Gensler confirmed that the final registration steps, known as S-1 filings, are currently in progress at the staff level
– Eight ETF bidders received approval for 19b-4 filings on May 23, but they are still working on their Form S-1s, the final requirement for trading approval
