Bitcoin Dips Below $62K Amid Disappointing Hong Kong ETF Debut

The post Bitcoin Dips Below $62K Amid Disappointing Hong Kong ETF Debut appeared on BitcoinEthereumNews.com. The launch of Hong Kong’s spot Bitcoin ETFs witnessed lackluster trading activity and disappointing expectations with a total volume of just $11 million.

Since their introduction on January 11, nearly a dozen spot BTC ETFs in the U.S. have attracted close to $12 billion in investor capital.

ChinaAMC’s Bitcoin fund led the pack, commanding 57% of the total turnover among all Bitcoin ETFs on its debut.
