US Spot Bitcoin ETFs Plunge in April, Reversing Inflow Trend

May 02, 2024 at 05:54 pm

Spot Bitcoin exchange-traded funds (ETFs) have experienced a reversal in inflows, with April marking the first month of net outflows totaling $343.5 million. All nine spot Bitcoin ETFs witnessed net outflows, led by Fidelity's FBTC with a loss of $191 million, breaking a three-month streak of consecutive inflows. This shift in sentiment follows a period of waning enthusiasm and could indicate a potential slowdown in the growth of spot Bitcoin ETFs.

US Spot Bitcoin ETFs Plunge in April, Reversing Inflow Trend

Spot Bitcoin ETFs Witness Steep Declines in April, Breaking Three-Month Inflow Trend

The United States spot Bitcoin Exchange-traded Fund (ETF) market has faced unprecedented headwinds in recent days, with April marking a significant downturn in investor sentiment.

Massive Net Outflows Across the Board

On Wednesday alone, all nine spot Bitcoin ETFs experienced substantial net outflows, totaling an alarming $563.7 million. Fidelity's FBTC suffered the most significant outflow, losing over $191 million. This outflow surpassed even Grayscale's GBTC, which has endured a persistent trend of outflows since spot Bitcoin ETFs commenced trading in the US.

Data from SoSo Value reveals that Grayscale registered $167.3 million in net outflows during this period. ARK 21Shares, which awaits a decision from the US Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) on its Ethereum ETF application, saw its Bitcoin ETF endure $98.1 million in net outflows, ranking third.

Other notable outflows included BlackRock's IBIT ($36.9 million) and Bitwise's BITB ($29 million). Daily net outflows have become a recent trend for BlackRock, which had previously enjoyed a relatively strong performance.

Hashdex's DEFI emerged as the only spot Bitcoin ETF to avoid daily outflows on Wednesday, but it also failed to attract any inflows.

April Breaks Consecutive Inflow Streak

The significant outflows in April have reversed a three-month trend of consecutive inflows for spot Bitcoin ETFs. As of April 29th, the US spot BTC ETF market had experienced total outflows of $51.5 million. ARK 21Shares Bitcoin ETF bore the brunt of outflows on this day, losing $31.34 million.

Despite these losses, Grayscale led the April outflows with approximately $2.5 billion exiting the GBTC ETF.

Diminished Optimism Dampens Inflow Projections

Earlier in March, JPM Securities expressed optimism about the future of spot Bitcoin ETF inflows, predicting a potential surge to $220 billion within three years. However, the current market sentiment casts doubt on the likelihood of such high inflows.

Time will tell whether market dynamics will improve and drive better performance for the spot Bitcoin ETF market. Nonetheless, the recent outflows have undoubtedly dampened the enthusiasm that surrounded the launch of these products.
