“Including GBTC, Bitcoin ETFs now hold 3.23% of Bitcoin’s circulating supply.

This is a higher share of supply than in gold’s case, where $110 billion out of a market cap of ~$10 trillion is held in US-traded ETFs (approximately 1% of supply). Despite Bitcoin’s correction, the high ownership of Bitcoin ETFs suggests these have actually been getting decent traction among traditional finance investors.”
