Bitwise CIO: Institutions continued to increase their holdings in Bitcoin ETFs in Q2, and most of them are long-term holders
ChainCatcher news, Bitwise Chief Information Officer Matt Hougan stated on social media that after reviewing the 13-F filings submitted by various institutions in recent days, he made some preliminary summaries based on the second quarter Bitcoin ETF holdings, including:
- Institutions are still increasing their holdings, and the trend continues: In Q2, 10 Bitcoin spot ETFs had a total of 1,924 institutional holders, up from 1,479 in Q1, representing an increase of about 30%. Considering that Bitcoin experienced a decline in Q2, this result is already quite impressive.
- Most institutional investors are diamond hands: The majority of institutional investors who allocated in Q1 held or purchased more positions in Q2. Among the filers in Q1, 44% of institutions increased their holdings in Bitcoin ETFs in Q2, 22% remained unchanged, 21% reduced their positions, and 13% exited completely.
- Hedge funds remain major holders: Most of the top holders of ETFs are mainstream hedge funds, including Millennium, Schonfeld, Boothbay, Capula, and others. However, there are also a significant number of advisors, family offices, and select institutional investors. Over time, we hope to see an increasing share from wealth management firms and pension funds.
