Grayscale Bitcoin Trust Shows Reduced Net Outflows Amidst Market Decline

Mar 24, 2024 at 06:05 am

Net outflows from the Grayscale Bitcoin Trust (GBTC) reached $642.5 million on March 18th, the highest since its inception. This surge was attributed to a court ruling allowing Genesis Global Holdco LLC to liquidate GBTC shares worth $1.3 billion. However, the downward trend in GBTC outflows towards the end of the trading week signaled positive buyer demand for BTC.

Grayscale Bitcoin Trust Shows Reduced Net Outflows Amidst Market Decline

Grayscale Bitcoin Trust Experiences Reduced Net Outflows

Amidst a broader decline in net inflows for Bitcoin-spot exchange-traded funds (ETFs), Grayscale Bitcoin Trust (GBTC) saw a moderation in net outflows during the week ending March 22.

Positive Signal for GBTC

Significantly, GBTC's net outflows reached their lowest level for the week, providing a positive signal for the fund. On Monday, March 18, GBTC experienced a surge in net outflows, reaching $642.5 million, the highest since the launch of the Nine, a group of nine publicly traded Bitcoin investment trusts.

The initial spike in GBTC outflows was attributed to the court ruling in the Genesis bankruptcy case. In February, the courts authorized Genesis Global Holdco LLC to liquidate GBTC shares worth approximately $1.3 billion.

Market Trends and Investor Sentiment

Despite the improvement in GBTC outflows, the overall trend in BTC-spot ETF market net inflows remained negative, reflecting a test of buyer demand for Bitcoin.

According to BitMEX Research and Farside Investors, the BTC-spot ETF market experienced total net outflows of $887.7 million in the week ending March 22.

iShares Bitcoin Trust (IBIT) and Fidelity Wise Origin Bitcoin Fund (FBTC) witnessed a sharp decline in their respective net inflows compared to the previous week.

IBIT recorded net inflows of $828.3 million in the week ending March 22, a significant decrease from $2,483.6 million in the week ending March 15. FBTC's net inflows also fell to $79.4 million from $717.9 million during the same period.

MicroStrategy's Confidence

Notwithstanding the recent outflows, MicroStrategy (MSTR) founder and Chairman Michael Saylor remains optimistic. Saylor has consistently expressed confidence in Bitcoin's long-term value and continues to acquire the asset for his company.
