Though these inflows, the 11 bitcoin funds had less than $1 billion in trading activity on Tuesday, far less than the daily volume of eight to ten billion dollars seen during the height of March trading. The ETFs have gathered a net inflow of $14.64 billion overall since their January launch.
The Bitcoin’s price shows that the value of bitcoin declined 2.86% over the previous 24 hours to $61,067 at the time of publishing. This price drop happened in spite of a Standard Chartered analysis showing that the top cryptocurrency would hit its all-time high in August and then rise to $100,000 in conjunction with the U.S. presidential election in November.
Standard Chartered further projected that bitcoin prices may drop much more to the region of $50,000 to $55,000 in a “least likely” situation wherein the current U.S. President Joe Biden withdraws from the election run.
