$3 billion leaves Bitcoin ETFs. Why Wall Street isn't panicking
On this episode of CoinDesk’s Public Keys at the New York Stock Exchange, Jennifer Sanasie is joined by CoinDesk Indices President Dave LaValle to unpack a $2.97 billion outflow streak from Bitcoin ETFs and what it really means for institutional adoption. Bloomberg Intelligence Senior ETF Analyst Eric Balchunas joins the show to explain why the recent outflows may be more noise than signal, share his bullish outlook on the fast-rising HYPE ETFs, and discuss how firms like Morgan Stanley, Goldman Sachs, and BlackRock are expanding access to Bitcoin through new investment products. In this week’s 10X segment, LaValle breaks down the fundamentals of margin trading, explaining what separates professional traders from retail investors when it comes to managing leverage, risk, and conviction. Plus, Stellar Development Foundation CEO and Executive Director Denelle Dixon discusses DTCC’s decision to select Stellar as the first public blockchain connected to its upcoming tokenized securities settlement platform, and what it means for the future of tokenization and institutional blockchain adoption. - This episode of Public Keys is brought to you by Kraken Pro.
