Subsequently, 21Shares added approximately $52M in net inflows. This marks a huge achievement as the ETF witnessed no flows on August 19. This signifies an elevation in investor confidence. The broader market sentiment is potentially turning favorable for Bitcoin. Contrarily, Grayscale’s Bitcoin Trust witnessed an outflow of 12.8M, compared with 0 flows on August 19.
ETH ETFs Continue to See Outflows with $6.5M Withdrawn on the Fourth Day
The Ethereum ETFs contrastively experienced negative flows of $6.5M on August 20. This negative trend has been persistent for the past 4 days. However, these withdrawals have decreased to a great extent. A day ago, the outflows of ETH ETFs stood at $14M. Thus, this development shows a gradual change in investor sentiment.
BlackRock saw the largest inflows among the ETH ETFs with the inclusion of $26.8M. On the other hand, the respective ETF recorded no flows on the 19th of August. The disparity between the flows of BTC and ETH ETFs could mirror the difference in investor confidence on both sides.
