Bitcoin ETF March Trading Volume Surpasses January and February Combined

Bloomberg ETF analyst Eric Balchunas pointed out that the trading volume of Bitcoin spot ETF in March reached 111 billion USD, about three times the volume of January and February combined, which makes him more optimistic about April's performance.

In addition, data compiled by another Bloomberg analyst, James Seyffart, shows that BlackRock IBIT's trading volume steadily increased in March.

Eric Balchunas believes that BlackRock IBIT has officially taken over the trading volume leadership from GBTC and has become the $GLD of the Bitcoin ETF world, the world's largest gold ETF.
