Bitwise<\/a> Chief Information Officer (CIO) Matt Hougan asserted<\/a> that investment advisors are adopting spot Bitcoin (BTC<\/a>) exchange-traded funds (ETFs) faster than any other ETF launched in recent history.<\/p>\n

Hougan made the statement in response to a Sept. 8 social media post by researcher Jim Bianco, who claimed that less than 10% of US-traded spot Bitcoin ETFs AUM comes from investment advisors. He added that the ETFs are a “small tourist tool” instead of an adoption vehicle.<\/p>\n

Nearly $1.5 billion from advisors<\/h2>\n

Hougan analyzed BlackRock\u2019s<\/a> iShares Bitcoin Trust (IBIT<\/a>) net flows related to investment advisors, which are $1.45 billion. Compared to the total $46 billion in inflows from spot Bitcoin ETFs, Hougan agrees with Bianco that this is indeed a small amount.<\/p>\n

However, excluding all other flows from Bitcoin ETFs and solely focusing on the $1.45 billion flow linked to investment advisors, Hougan explained that this would make IBIT the second fastest-growing ETF launched in 2024 out of over 300 funds.<\/p>\n

He added:<\/p>\n

\u201cThe only ETF that \u2018beats\u2019 it on assets is KLMT, an ESG ETF that was seeded by a single investor with $2 billion and trades on average ~250 shares per day, with zero investment advisor adoption.\u201d<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

Hougan further highlighted that investment advisors are adopting Bitcoin ETFs faster than any other ETF in history despite the relatively lower amount invested compared to other investors.<\/p>\n

Hougan added:<\/p>\n

\u201cIt is just that their historic flows are overshadowed by the even-more-historic purchases of other investors.\u201d<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

Bloomberg senior ETF analyst Eric Balchunas<\/a> agreed with the Bitwise CIO and confirmed that the nearly $1.5 billion in advisor allocations are “more organic inflows” than any other ETF launched this year.<\/p>\n

Not too staggering<\/h2>\n

Jim Bianco's post on X was prompted by the major outflows from US-traded spot Bitcoin ETFs registered last week. According to Farside Investors data<\/a>, the ETFs collective lost $706 million last week, with nearly $288 million in fleeing capital registered on Sept. 3.<\/p>\n

Balchunas noted that the major outflows represent 0.5% of Bitcoin ETFs' total AUM, which he considers is not “too staggering.<\/a>” The Bloomberg analyst added:<\/p>\n

\u201c[People] are so warped (err spoiled) by how big the inflows are that any little outflow they freak. Princess and the Pea Syndrome).\u201d<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

Additionally, Balchunas explained<\/a> that the correct way to measure an ETF's health is by tracking its flows since dollar-denominated assets under management can shrink if the asset price goes down.<\/p>\n

He concluded by highlighting<\/a> that Bitcoin ETFs have over 1,000 institutional holders after two 13F periods, which he added is “beyond unprecedented.”<\/p>\n

Balchunas added that 20% of IBIT's shares are held by institutions and large advisors and expects this number to reach 40% in the next 12 months.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
