Despite the anticipation surrounding Hong Kong's ETF debut, the inflows remain dwarfed by the outflows from US-based ETFs, raising concerns about Bitcoin's (CRYPTO:BTC) price trajectory.
Hong Kong's ETFs witnessed $217 million in net inflows, while US ETFs saw $298 million in net outflows, indicating a significant disparity in market sentiment.
Institutional inflows from ETFs played a pivotal role in Bitcoin's recent rally, with US ETFs contributing substantially to the cryptocurrency's surge past $50,000 earlier.
However, the lackluster trading activity in Hong Kong ETFs on their debut suggests subdued market participation, although it could set a precedent for broader Asian crypto exposure.
With Bitcoin slipping below $60,000 post the ETF debut, there's speculation that failure to hold the $59,000 support level could prompt a retest of the $50,000 mark, according to market analysts.
