🥇BlackRock
BlackRock led the charge, adding 1,000 BTC. They're just shy of 10,000 BTC for the week and 30,000 for the month. It’s been a chaotic FUD filled time with Germany selling and MT Gox distributions, yet through it all, Blackrock keeps buying.

🧮 Total
Aside from BlackRock, ETFs were largely quiet yesterday. Total net flows were +673 BTC, with Grayscale selling 400, Ark buying 50, and Fidelity buying 20 BTC. Investor focus seems to have shifted to Ethereum - which is in it’s first week of it’s ETF launch.

🔷 Ethereum
Day two of Ethereum’s ETF launch saw net outflows (-$133m) with massive outflows from Grayscale’s Ethereum Trust ($-327m). Who could have seen this coming? The positive for ETH investors were $148m inflows excluding Grayscale. Fidelity ($75m), Bitwise ($30m) and VanEck ($20m) led the way.

Sometimes nothing is better than something.
After the Crowdstrike meltdown and their CEO’s subsequent PR challenges last week, they somehow managed to find a way to insult all the thousands of people who missed flights, work, and otherwise had their Friday messed up — all while trying to do something nice.
