But despite this, the fund still records very good numbers, according to “Balchonas”.

Globally, BITO and GBTC outperform other ETFs linked to cryptocurrency around the world.

Grayscale failed to convince the SEC to approve its request to convert GBTC into a spot bitcoin ETF.

As a result, GBTC trading volume collapsed to a record high of 35%.

Grayscale filed a lawsuit against the authority.

On the other hand, the first ETF to track the price of bitcoin in reverse (i.e., follow and bet on the bitcoin price going down) saw decent trading volume.

The “ProShares Short Bitcoin Strategy ETF (BITI)” enjoyed a successful launch, increasing its trading volume by nearly 300% in a week.

Balchonas told BITI that the BITI numbers are perfectly healthy, although they may seem small compared to the size of what the BITO has recorded.
