Since January, the value of assets under management (AUM) has decreased by only 31% from $28.7 billion to $19.6 billion due to the increase in BTC’s 38% price increase since the Jan. 11 launch.

BlackRock’s spot Bitcoin ETF came close to the leader with $17.2 billion. At the same time, the outflow of funds since the launch of the GBTC convertible fund amounted to $16.38 billion.

BlackRock and Grayscale were the only products that recorded any fund movement on April 15. According to SoSoValue, total net outflows from spot Bitcoin ETFs in the U.S. were $36.67 million.
