Inflow of investor funds into spot exchange-traded investment funds (ETF) on Bitcoin on January 24 was the lowest ever since the launch of the funds on January 11. Interest in the long-awaited Bitcoin ETF is falling after record sales in the first few days.

Recall that on the first trading day of the spot Bitcoin ETF, shares worth $4.6 billion were sold.

By According to JPMorgan Chase, the total net outflow of ten Bitcoin ETFs on January 24 was about $153 million. This is the third day of net outflow in a row.
