Highlights
As the market witnesses a massive bull run in Bitcoin, the Spot ETFs are promoting the idea of BTC as a store of value. As investors watch the Bitcoin price crossing above the $57,000 mark, the spot Bitcoin ETFs mark a significant milestone. These innovative investment vehicles have garnered significant attention, and recent activity has been nothing short of extraordinary.
On 26th February, a combined daily trading volume of $2.4 billion was witnessed across the nine Bitcoin ETFs, underscoring the market’s voracious appetite for Bitcoin-linked products.
Amongst the nine ETFs, BlackRock’s iShares Bitcoin Trust (IBIT) has taken center stage with remarkable pre-market activities. Eric Balchunas, senior analyst at Bloomberg, shared about the $80 million traded in IBIT before the market even opened.
IBIT stands out, not just for the sheer volume of trading but for the unprecedented level of activity it represents for an ETF barely two months into its launch. With this surge, the bulls have propelled IBIT to surpass a whopping $7 billion in total value, a testament to the trust’s burgeoning dominance in the Bitcoin ETF space.

IBIT showcases a significant increase in Bitcoin holdings, indicating a bullish stance from investors and market watchers alike. The ETF’s ability to draw such high pre-market activity suggests robust confidence and a keen investor interest that could very well redefine the ETF landscape.
Amidst the bullish frenzy in the ETF sector, a decreasing outflow was observed in Grayscale’s spot Bitcoin ETF. The Grayscale Bitcoin Trust (GBTC) has seen its net outflows taper for three consecutive trading days, culminating in a record-low outflow of $22.4 million. Such diminishing outflows hint at a reversal of sentiment, potentially marking the beginnings of a bullish phase.
The situation with Grayscale is noteworthy. Net outflows have been decreasing significantly. Just last week, we saw a daily net outflow of $44.2 million. By the 26th, this had halved. It’s a clear sign of changing investor sentiment. Such a shift could influence Bitcoin’s market price. It could also affect its reputation as a sustainable investment.
The market dynamics are fascinating. On one side, new spot Bitcoin ETFs are seeing a rise in trading volumes. They are attracting significant inflows. On the other side, the decrease in outflows from established funds like GBTC is evident. This suggests that investor attitudes toward cryptocurrency ETFs are maturing. As trust in Bitcoin’s value grows, its bullish impact on the market looks promising.
