Highlights

  • Bitcoin ETFs have reversed their trend of net redemptions, collecting a net inflow of $15.7 million.
  • Fidelity's Bitcoin ETF led the inflows with $261 million, while BlackRock's Bitcoin ETF also saw a notable increase.
  • Hong Kong is considering regulatory changes to allow in-kind creations and redemptions for spot Bitcoin ETFs.

Spot Bitcoin ETFs have broken the five-day trend of net redemptions. They collected a net inflow of $15.7 million on Monday. That change is a sizeable reversal following a week when these funds have experienced over $885 million in net outflows. The recent influxes into Bitcoin ETFs demonstrate investor trust and have been part of the cryptocurrency’s market performance. The value of Bitcoin once hit $71,000, and the daily trading volume is up 26%.

The biggest inflow gain of the day came from Fidelity’s Bitcoin ETF (FBTC), which took in $261 million. After FBTC, the BlackRock Bitcoin ETF (IBIT) also posted a significant net inflow of $35.4 million. On the other hand, the Grayscale Bitcoin Trust (GBTC) saw a moderate net outflow of $350 million on the same day. These moves reflect the changing landscape of investment in cryptocurrency, where investors are putting different sentiments in different funds.

London Stock Exchange to List Crypto ETNs

The success of US spot Bitcoin ETFs is encouraging other countries to consider such investment products. The London Stock Exchange revealed that Bitcoin and Ethereum exchange-traded notes (ETNs) would be listed applications that would open in April, and the commencement of trading will be on May 28. This choice highlights the increasing worldwide attention to institutional cryptocurrency exposure. Moreover, Grayscale CLO forecasted the release of Ethereum ETFs before May, suggesting the growing diversity of crypto-related investment alternatives.

Hong Kong is studying a regulatory change that could enable in-kind creations and redemptions for spot Bitcoin ETFs. Such a move would make it different from the cash-only transactions typical of the US market. Should this reform be carried out, it will reshape the market of cryptocurrency investments in Hong Kong, giving investors the alternative opportunity to invest in Bitcoin-related products. Analysis of Bloomberg by Eric Balchunas on X and Rebecca Sin highlights what the possible implications of this change would be for the region’s financial ecosystem.
