The new US Spot #ETFs have become a dominant force in the market. These new instruments introduced a significant source of new demand into the market, more than offsetting the daily issuance, as well as sell-side pressure from #GBTC and existing holders. Comparing spot trade volumes 🟧 and ETF trade volumes 🟦, there is strong correlation between these markets, with ETFs trading around 30% of the size of global spot markets. We can also see the seasonality impact of weekends, where ETF markets are closed, and spot trade volumes are notably lower.
