Morgan Stanley has unveiled its initial investments in Grayscale Bitcoin ETF (GBTC) and ARK 21Shares Bitcoin ETF (ARKB). <\/p>\n\n\n\n

These disclosures follow the investment bank's recent announcement of substantial holdings in BlackRock iShares Bitcoin ETF (IBIT) to the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) this week.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Morgan Stanley Holds Investments in Grayscale, Ark21Shares ETFs<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

In recent 13F-HR\/A filings \r\n \r\n \r\n \r\n <\/g>\r\n \r\n \r\n \r\n <\/clipPath>\r\n <\/defs><\/svg><\/span><\/a>with the U.S. SEC, Morgan Stanley reported its holdings for the quarters ending December 31, 2023, and March 31, 2024. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

These new filings were an update to a previous 13F submitted earlier this week.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Previously, the bank held shares in Valkyrie Bitcoin and Ether Strategy ETF and ProShares Bitcoin Strategy ETF (BITO) until last year but had not significantly invested in Bitcoin ETFs. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

However, following the launch of spot ETFs in January, according to the latest SEC filing, Morgan Stanley invested in Grayscale Bitcoin Trust (GBTC), ARK 21Shares Bitcoin ETF, and BITO.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

As of March 31, the Wall Street <\/a>giant held approximately $270 million in GBTC and $2.25 million in ARKB shares. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

CoinGape reported that the company also held 5.5 million shares of BlackRock\u2019s iShares Bitcoin Trust, valued at $190 million. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

This disclosure followed Goldman Sachs revealing holdings of about 7 million iShares Bitcoin Trust shares and 1.5 million Fidelity FBTC shares.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Currently, Morgan Stanley has 2,780 shares of Grayscale Bitcoin Trust valued at $148,000 and 26,222 shares of ARK 21Shares Bitcoin ETF worth $1.57 million. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

The company has decreased its investments in other BTC ETFs in Q2.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Bitcoin Price To Rally With Bitcoin ETF Inflows<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Recent Bitcoin ETF inflows suggest a potential shift towards positive sentiment. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

On Friday, BlackRock, Fidelity, Bitwise, ARK 21Shares<\/a>, and Invesco Galaxy reported inflows in spot BTC ETFs, while Grayscale continues to experience outflows.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Experts predict that cash flow into U.S. exchange-traded funds may increase in a few weeks, potentially driving BTC price recovery. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Analysts like Michael van de Poppe forecast 1-2 weeks of subdued price action before a significant upward surge.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In the past 24 hours, BTC price increased by 2% and is currently trading at $59,362, with a low of $57,690 and a high of $59,847. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

However, trading volume has dropped by 37% in the last 24 hours, reflecting a decrease in trader interest, with market sentiment at an extreme fear level of 25 today.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
