ARK 21SHARES BITCOIN ETF REACHES A $200M FIRST TIME
Despite Bitcoin’s price volatility, daily inflows to the co-sponsored ARK Invest ARK 21Shares Bitcoin ETF surged to above $200 million.
The strongest bull markets I’ve been in are built on walls of worry.
Cathie Wood
– CEO of Ark Invest
Investor interest in Bitcoin ETFs is increasing despite the volatility of the cryptocurrency market, as demonstrated by the performance of ARKB, BlackRock’s IBIT, and Fidelity’s FBTC.
With ARKB’s performance indicating investor confidence and a possible maturity of the cryptocurrency sector, Cathie Wood’s ARK Invest is still demonstrating a strong commitment to the space.
After plunging below $63,000 a week earlier, the price of bitcoin (BTC) teased a recovery above $72,000, prompting net inflows of $243.4 million into the ETF market.
On Wednesday, the ARK 21 Shares Bitcoin ETF (ARKB) saw inflows above $200 million for the first time.
The large inflows into ARKB contrast sharply with the exceptionally low daily inflows of $1.5 million into FBTC on the same day. IBIT saw $323.8 million in inflows during this time.
In actuality, FBTC experienced a record low day of just $1.5 million on Wednesday, whilst IBIT witnessed $323.8 million in inflows.
As more and more digital assets are integrated into regular financial markets, the success of products like ARKB may indicate that the cryptocurrency industry is maturing and that mainstream investors are beginning to accept it.
The record inflows into the ARK 21Shares Bitcoin ETF demonstrate the market’s resiliency and the continued appeal of Bitcoin as an investment vehicle, despite price volatility, as the cryptocurrency environment continues to change.
