The pace of outflows has slowed compared to earlier this year. Data reveals that the first $10 billion was withdrawn within two months of its ETF conversion, while the subsequent $10 billion took over six months.

However, GBTC remains under pressure as investors continue to exit positions. The fund’s Bitcoin holdings have decreased to approximately 222,170, valued at around $12.8 billion, data shows.

Despite GBTC’s losses, the US spot Bitcoin ETF market as a whole remains positive. On Monday, these ETFs collectively attracted $12.8 million in net capital.

BlackRock’s iShares Bitcoin Trust (IBIT) saw a resurgence of inflows after a period of stagnation, taking in $15.8 million. Other prominent Bitcoin ETFs managed by Fidelity, Franklin Templeton, and VanEck reported inflows of around $5 million each.

Grayscale’s low-cost Bitcoin ETF also managed to attract some inflows, ending the day with $2.8 million. The rest reported zero flows.
