Looking at the holdings allocation on the products, it appears that Bitcoin enjoyed the lion share with the Grayscale Bitcoin Trust recording about $14.1 billion. This is understandable as Bitcoin remains the most popular and most trusted cryptocurrency among the thousands in the system. The Grayscale Ethereum Trust on the other hand accounted for $1.81 billion of the Asset Under Management.
The likes of XRP, Zcash, and XLM surprisingly have less significant holdings. However, Litecoin, Bitcoin Cash, and Ethereum Classic boast a fair share of the Assets Under Management with holdings of $125 million, $70.7 million, and $67.7 million respectively. The surprise addition is Ethereum classic which is not as popular as some of the less significant holding assets like XRP.
Comparing these to that of the holdings of each digital asset trust on 14 December is nothing but positive growth across all products. Out of the $13 billion Assets Under Management recorded last week, Bitcoin had $10.82 billion shares with Ethereum recording $1.72. Litecoin, Bitcoin Cash, and Ethereum Classic recorded a share of $74.8 million, $58.6 million, and $74.3 million respectively. On December 10, 131,455 Ether valued at $74 million was added to the Ethereum Trust Fund indicating a massive growth in that area as well.
Michael Sonnenshein, managing director at Grayscale Investment stated that:
“Throughout 2020, we are seeing a new group of investors who are Ethereum first and in some cases Ethereum only. There’s a growing conviction around Ethereum as an asset class.”
2020 has been a very good year for Grayscale Investment Trust having recorded massive growth of holdings across products. In just one week in November 2020, its Bitcoin holdings increased by 15,000. In just one week in December, its Bitcoin holdings increased by 56,000, which is very impressive. The COVID-19 implications were part of the reasons why Bitcoin interest soar so high in 2020 with Institutional interest rising by a high margin. Most companies seek to take advantage of the scarcity of Bitcoin to hedge against inflation.
