On September 5, 2024, Eastern time, the Spot Bitcoin ETF had its seventh straight day of net outflows. The cumulative total now stands at $17 billion, with the last individual day net outflow reaching around $211.1 million. Grayscale’s Mini Trust reported a number that tanked with a negative flow of $8.4 million. On the other hand, GBTC rallied around $23.2 million to signal the level of bleeding Grayscale is going through.
The total outflow of GBTC is closer to $20 billion. The next report could surpass this milestone, which is more likely given the issuer’s persistent negative sentiments and ongoing outflows since its inception. BlackRock is playing the role of balancing the sentiments. Its total collections are $20.9 billion in inflows as of September 5, 2024.
Bitcoin Spot ETFs’ total net asset value is $50.73 billion. Its net asset ratio is 4.58%, with a cumulative net inflow worth over $17 billion.
This is for the second time in the last 7 days that total net outflows for a single day have gone above $200 million. The last time it happened was on September 3, 2024, with a total of $287.7 million. Numbers have approached but just above that threshold, such as on August 30, 2024, when negative flows totaled $175.6 million. That was also the day when every issuer reported an outflow from the system.
BlackRock’s numbers are missing once again. It last reported an outflow of $13.5 million on August 29, 2024. That was a rare scenario, given that the issuer barely reports outflows even in the Spot Ether ETF segment.
All that being said, the token is currently shedding money. In the past 24 hours, BTC has experienced a 0.92% decline, currently exchanging hands at $56,534.51 as the content is being articulated. The flagship cryptocurrency is yet to surpass the mark of $60,000. Near-term predictions indicate that the token will eventually overcome the prevailing complexities and reach a value of more than $64,000. This would set the stage for $84,000 within the next 30 days; however, it is also the same target that continually appears in predictions but fails to be realized. Reports in the past indicate that BTC is pursuing any amount exceeding $80,000, but the precise timing of this endeavor is still uncertain.
BTC’s volatility is 3.28%. Once numbers pertaining to unemployment and recession possibilities are made public, it is likely to rebound. The segment is likely to suffer from bearish sentiment since investors are hesitating to make investments in anything that could drain their funds. Borrowing funds is expensive, and it is only natural for investors to make every penny count.
Spot Bitcoin ETFs have more days ahead of them to turn the table in their favor.
