Grayscale Amasses 552.5k Bitcoin and Almost 3 Million ETH with Latest Big Accumulations

2020-12-10 21:16

Grayscale Investments continue to gobble up more and more Bitcoin, and now it has its eyes set on Ether as well.

All this buying has Grayscale Bitcoin Trust amassing 552.5k BTC so far, worth more than $10 billion. GBTC currently has almost 3% of Bitcoin’s circulating supply.

As per the company’s Dec. 3rd filing with the US Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC), they added another nearly 14,592 BTC worth over $280 million to its holdings.

GBTC is currently trading at a premium of around 15% to BTC price, cut down in half since last week. The premium started trending up in early October along with the jump in the price of Bitcoin but has been keeping under 30% throughout 2020 except for a handful of occasions.

This premium is a function of “exposure to bitcoin in a regulated vehicle without having to deal with the challenges of custody, eligibility to some tax-efficient schemes, strong distribution through regular brokerage accounts, lack of alternatives such as an ETF,” noted data provider Skew in its report.

However, it is not just Bitcoin that Grayscale’s institutional investors have their eyes on. Grayscale’s ETH stash is ready to hit 3 million, currently at 2.94 million ETH worth nearly $1.7 billion.

This Ether accumulation actually saw a big spike on Wednesday, which means this week institutional investors bought the dip on ETH.

Ether is currently trading at $560, up from yesterday’s low of $530, while Bitcoin is around $18,240, has managed to recover from yesterday’s drop to $17,650.

Grayscale Ethereum Trust (ETHE) is trading at a premium of a whopping 127%, down from 900% in June.
