Bitcoin ETFs Make a Splash: Bitwise ETF Dominates Inflows with $240 Million

比特幣 ETF 引起轟動：Bitwise ETF 以 2.4 億美元主導資金流入

Washington, D.C. - The highly anticipated approval of spot bitcoin exchange-traded funds (ETFs) by the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) has sparked an influx of investments into the cryptocurrency market. Among the 11 spot bitcoin ETFs that commenced trading on Thursday, Bitwise Asset Management's ETF emerged as the frontrunner, amassing a substantial $240 million in inflows.

華盛頓特區 - 美國證券交易委員會 (SEC) 備受期待地批准現貨比特幣交易所交易基金 (ETF)，引發了大量投資湧入加密貨幣市場。在周四開始交易的 11 隻現貨比特幣 ETF 中，Bitwise Asset Management 的 ETF 成為領跑者，吸引了 2.4 億美元的資金流入。

The SEC's green light for spot bitcoin ETFs, after years of resistance, marks a significant milestone in the evolution of digital assets as an investment class. These ETFs provide investors with a regulated and transparent avenue to gain exposure to bitcoin, the world's leading cryptocurrency.

經過多年的抵制，美國證券交易委員會 (SEC) 對現貨比特幣 ETF 開了綠燈，標誌著數位資產作為投資類別發展的一個重要里程碑。這些 ETF 為投資者提供了一個受監管且透明的途徑來投資比特幣（世界領先的加密貨幣）。

On the first day of trading, a staggering $4.6 billion worth of shares were exchanged across all the newly launched bitcoin ETFs, according to data from LSEG. Grayscale, BlackRock, and Fidelity accounted for the lion's share of this trading activity.

根據 LSEG 的數據，在交易首日，所有新推出的比特幣 ETF 的股票交易價值高達 46 億美元。灰階、貝萊德和富達佔據了這項交易活動的最大份額。

However, it was Bitwise's ETF that stole the show, commanding a large chunk of the inflows. Matt Hougan, Bitwise's Chief Investment Officer, expressed optimism that the market for spot bitcoin ETFs could reach tens of billions of dollars in the future.

然而，Bitwise 的 ETF 搶盡風頭，吸引了大量資金流入。 Bitwise 首席投資長 Matt Hougan 樂觀地認為，比特幣現貨 ETF 市場未來可能達到數百億美元。

"This is a major step forward for the cryptocurrency industry," said Hougan. "We believe that spot bitcoin ETFs will provide investors with a safe and convenient way to gain exposure to this exciting asset class."

「這是加密貨幣產業向前邁出的重要一步，」霍根說。 “我們相信現貨比特幣 ETF 將為投資者提供一種安全便捷的方式來接觸這一令人興奮的資產類別。”

The ProShares Bitcoin Strategy ETF, the first bitcoin futures ETF approved by the SEC in 2021, set a high benchmark with $1 billion in assets within its first days of trading. Industry experts believe that matching BITO's performance would be a testament to the success of spot bitcoin ETFs.

ProShares 比特幣策略 ETF 是 2021 年 SEC 批准的第一隻比特幣期貨 ETF，在交易的首日內就以 10 億美元的資產設定了高基準。行業專家認為，與 BITO 的業績相匹配將證明現貨比特幣 ETF 的成功。

Amidst the intense competition for market share, Franklin Templeton took the aggressive step of slashing the fee for its bitcoin ETF to 0.19%, the lowest in the market. The company also waived fees on the first $10 billion in assets managed by the ETF until August. Valkyrie Investments followed suit by reducing its fees to 0.25% and reported inflows of $29.44 million on the first day of trading.

在市場份額的激烈競爭中，富蘭克林鄧普頓採取了激進的舉措，將其比特幣 ETF 的費用削減至 0.19%，為市場最低。該公司還在 8 月之前免除了 ETF 管理的前 100 億美元資產的費用。 Valkyrie Investments 緊隨其後，將費用降低至 0.25%，並在交易首日報告資金流入 2,944 萬美元。

Despite the SEC's approval, Chairman Gary Gensler cautioned investors against seeing it as an endorsement of bitcoin. He described it as a "speculative, volatile asset," underscoring the need for investors to exercise caution.

儘管獲得了 SEC 的批准，主席加里·詹斯勒 (Gary Gensler) 仍警告投資者不要將其視為對比特幣的認可。他將其描述為“投機性、波動性資產”，強調投資者需要謹慎行事。

As of the market close on Thursday, the price of bitcoin, the world's largest cryptocurrency, stood at $43,696, down 5.32% on the day. However, the launch of spot bitcoin ETFs has injected a surge of optimism into the cryptocurrency market, signaling the potential for broader acceptance and mainstream adoption.

截至週四收盤，全球第一大加密貨幣比特幣價格報43,696美元，當日下跌5.32%。然而，現貨比特幣 ETF 的推出為加密貨幣市場注入了一股樂觀情緒，表明其有可能獲得更廣泛的接受和主流採用。
