  $BITO just about at $1b in total volume today (curr $993m but trades still trickling in). Easily the biggest Day One of any ETF in terms of ‘natural’ volume. It also traded more than 99.5% of all ETFs (incl some bigs like $DIA, $ARKK, $SLV). It def defied our expectations.. https…

  ProShares' PR says $BITO ended the day with $570 million in assets. #Bitcoin

  The #Bitcoin ETF hit so hard it crashed the Proshares website. Epic.

  Don't ever forget the CCP and “ESG” went hammertime on #Bitcoin for two months and as soon as they laid off for a minute it did a double straight in their face back to ATH and now ProShares launched the second most successful ETF ever and I'm just curious how all that tastes.

  Started with $20 million in seed, so that's ~$550 million in day 1 inflows.

  Proshares #bitcoin futures ETF has casually net slurped 8.8k $BTC or so on day1 https://twitter.com/...

  Aha, so the #Bitcoin ETF *was* the biggest launch day ever in ‘natural’ volume. By far. https://twitter.com/...

  Proshares #Bitcoin futures ETF $BITO has successfully launched in the US. Gensler's reasoning as to why a futures ETF is allowed but not a regular $BTC ETF is allowed sounds a lot like “we would have no direct control over a direct ETF”

  Thinking maybe this ETF thing might become important https://twitter.com/...

  After years of delays, the first #Bitcoin-linked ETF in the US makes its debut in watershed moment. Roughly 6 million shares of BITO changed hands 20 minutes in. https://www.bloomberg.com/... https://twitter.com/...

  When a real Bitcoin ETF comes out it is gonna be MASSIVE I think ppl are underestimating the amount of $$$ that is waiting for this https://twitter.com/...

  The ProShares #bitcoin futures ETF has now traded north of $995,969,000 in volume in its first day. That marks a new record for the best ever natural trading volume debut for an ETF Bitcoin now less than $1,000 away from hitting a new record high as it passes $64,000 $BITO

  Investing in a Bitcoin ETF is potentially far riskier than actually owning Bitcoin https://www.bloomberg.com/...
