Spot Bitcoin ETFs are already grabbing the headlines, according to a recent CoinShares report released on January 15.

In the blog post, the digital assets investment firm revealed a $1.18 billion inflow into the crypto space in the past week. Turning its searchlight into the region receiving the bulk of these funds, CoinShares’ James Butterfill identified the US market as the principal recipient of the net inflows.

The North American market took in a total of $1.24 billion, with the European market taking in minor inflows within the same period.

While the inflows are commendable, Butterfill notes that they fall short of the record set at the launch of Bitcoin futures exchange-traded funds (ETFs) in October 2021, which received up to $1.5 billion.

Following the same steps, ProShares ETFs in the US attracted $265 million in the past week, while its MTD inflows stood at $337.4 million.

Meanwhile, CoinShares’ report showed that Bitcoin was the chief beneficiary of the inflows, with $1.141.8 billion worth of Bitcoin assets making their way into the US market.

However, after a two-year delay, the US government agency gave the green light to roll out the crypto-backed service on January 10.

In its announcement, the SEC approved 12 spot Bitcoin ETF applications, including ones from BlackRock, Fidelity, WisdomTree, and nine others.

Canadian Bitcoin ETF Also Impacted.

The impact of this change in market dynamics has not been limited to the European landscape alone.

The Canadian crypto market witnessed the most significant negative inflows, leading to a weekly outflow totaling -44.2....
