Over the last two days, IBIT was the sole U.S. Bitcoin fund to attract investments, while other ETFs, with the exception of Grayscale’s, saw no new inflows or even decreases.

Despite IBIT experiencing inflows, it fell short of the GBTC’s outflows of $110.1 million on April 15, which had been larger at $166.2 million the previous day. The net result was that all 10 Bitcoin spot ETFs experienced outflows totaling $91.8 million over the two days.

During the past week, Bitcoin’s price dropped by 11.7% to reach $62,743, which aligns with the cryptocurrency’s recent market instability. Additionally, global investment products related to Bitcoin experienced outflows totaling $126 million by April 12.
