The Bitcoin ETF sector saw a net inflow of $49 million on May 31, marking a positive trend that has persisted for 14 consecutive trading days. This continued influx of capital underscores growing investor interest and confidence in Bitcoin as a viable investment amidst broader market dynamics.
Grayscale Faces Challenges
However, the day was not favorable for all entities in the sector. Grayscale’s Bitcoin Trust (GBTC), one of the most significant funds, reported an outflow of $124.3 million. This marks the highest level of outflows for the fund in the past 21 trading days, signaling a potential shift in investor sentiment towards this particular vehicle.
In stark contrast, BlackRock’s Bitcoin ETF, known as IBIT, saw a significant rebound in inflows. From a modest $1.6 million the previous day, inflows surged to $169 million. This represents a substantial recovery and points to robust investor demand and confidence in BlackRock’s offerings.
