Bitcoin’s Million-Dollar Drama: Did Ether ETFs Really Outshine, or Just Outstubborn?
Thus began another storied week in the land of crypto markets, where optimism springs eternal, and investors collectively decide to have faith (or delusions, depending on whom you ask). Bitcoin ETFs, which the previous week mulled their place in the universe, abruptly remembered their purpose and hurtled back with vigor, as if frightened of being upstaged by their Ethereum cousins. Bitcoin ETFs, not content with subtlety, chose to rally almost all their forces around Blackrock’s IBIT—the Napoleon of index funds—which single-handedly hoarded $147.36 million, presumably while humming “Ode to Joy.” Fidelity’s FBTC, perhaps nursing an existential crisis, managed a respectable $30.88 million, while Grayscale’s Bitcoin Mini Trust took the moniker “mini” to heart and contributed but $10.98 million.
