Aggravated by Multiple Factors

Istoriškai Pilkos spalvos „Bitcoin Trust“ shares have traded at a premium to their underlying asset. However, this began to change early last year. As other Bitcoin investment vehicles emerged, most notably Canadian Exchange-Traded Funds (ETFs). And several other Bitcoin-based instruments, such as Bitcoin futures ETFs, were introduced later that year.

In early 2021, GBTC was trading at a premium of around 29% above the price of Bitcoin; by mid-February of that year, that premium had dropped to barely 8%. On February 18 and 19, the first exchange-traded funds (ETFs) in Canada began trading.

By February 23, GBTC was trading at a discount to the price of Bitcoin, and its value has continued to decrease since then, hampered by the terrible bear market of 2022 and aggravated by the market damage of the previous two weeks caused by the breakdown of FTX.

Since Grayscale and Genezė are both owned by Barry Silbert’s Digital Currency Group, the latter has been placed on liquidity alert as a result of the continuing problem.
