Following its conversion from a Trust to a Spot ETF, Grayscale has witnessed a significant outflow of funds, totaling $6.856 billion.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><!-- WP QUADS Content Ad Plugin v. 2.0.80 --><\/p>\n<blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\" data-width=\"550\" data-dnt=\"true\">\n<p lang=\"en\" dir=\"ltr\">\ud83d\udd0e Latest data shows US Spot <a rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/hashtag\/Bitcoin?src=hash&amp;ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">#Bitcoin<\/a>  ETFs with a net inflow of US$477M yesterday. <a rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/t.co\/FQr512EHJf\">pic.twitter.com\/FQr512EHJf<\/a><\/p>\n<p>\u2014 Crypto.com Research &amp; Insights (@cryptocom_rni) <a rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/cryptocom_rni\/status\/1758441237244477724?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">February 16, 2024<\/a><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">This includes a $525 million withdrawal in the past week and a $175 million reduction in the 24 hours leading up to February 15.
