What’s new? Spot bitcoin exchange-traded funds (ETFs) from investment firms BlackRock and Fidelity were among the top 10 largest ETFs in the US in terms of fund flow in January with a combined total of $4,8 billion. Thus, BlackRock’s iShares Bitcoin Trust (IBIT) product, traded on Nasdaq, was in eighth place with $2,6 billion, while the Fidelity Wise Origin Bitcoin ETF (FBTC), available on the CBOE exchange, ranked 10th ($2,2 billion).
What else is known? According to YCharts data at the end of last year, 3109 exchange-traded funds are operating in the United States. Trading in shares of ten spot BTC ETFs was approved by the securities regulator SEC on January 11, including GBTC from Grayscale, which previously operated as a bitcoin trust without the ability to redeem shares.
According to Morningstar analysts, GBTC was in second place in terms of outflow of funds among all ETFs at the end of the month with an indicator of $5,7 billion.
At the same time, the total fund flow for the ten spot BTC ETFs has remained positive for six consecutive days (+$829,69 million). On the last day of trading, February 2, only GBTC (-$144,61 million) recorded an outflow.
Nate Geraci, president of the investment consulting firm ETF Store, also noted the clear leadership of IBIT and FBTC among the nine recently launched bitcoin products. He singled out a fund from Bitwise (BITB) and a joint product from ARK Invest and 21Shares (ARKB) as a “strong middle class,” and predicted that assets under management (AUM) for each would reach $1 billion in the medium term.
On January 19, FBTC, following IBIT, broke the $1 billion mark in fund inflows.
CFTC chair Rostin Behnam criticized the launch of spot BTC ETFs in the absence of a regulatory framework, as it creates false confidence among investors in the control of such products by regulators.
