A U.S.-listed Bitcoin ETF is set to face its worst monthly outflows since its launch two years ago. Data shows that in June, investors have withdrawn more than $4.1 billion from these 13 Bitcoin ETFs, setting the largest single-month net outflow record since these products began trading in January 2024. Among them, BlackRock's Bitcoin spot ETF with the largest assets under management - IBIT - alone accounted for US$3 billion in outflows.
Meanwhile, Bitcoin itself is headed for its worst month since June 2022, when a string of cryptocurrency bankruptcies culminated in the collapse of Sam Bankman-Fried’s cryptocurrency exchange FTX. Since this month, Bitcoin has fallen by more than 18%. Its price has been hovering around this level since falling below the $60,000 mark last week.
市场情报公司Glassnode的分析师在最新报告中写道，“此次资金流出的规模和持续时间表明，传统投资者依然保持防御姿态。”分析师补充称，以往比特币出现回调时，往往会吸引资金流入ETF逢低买入；而这一次，投资者却选择降低敞口。
