CryptoCompare: crypto ETPs +2.2% as of October 2020

The recent CryptoCompare report in October 2020 revealed that average daily volumes of crypto ETPs increased by only 2.2% in October compared to September.  

They rose from $65.2 million to $66.6 million, with the main markets, in terms of the average daily volume, being GBTC/USD, with $40.9 million, and ETHE/USD with $4.13 million, from Grayscale, followed by BTCE/EUR from BTC Group and QBTC.u/USD from 3iQ with less than one million each. 

Grayscale’s Bitcoin Trust (GBTC) still accounts for the vast majority of daily ETP volume, averaging $57.2 million in October. Added to the volumes of Grayscale Ethereum Trust (ETHE) and Grayscale Ethereum Classic (ETCG), volumes rise to 64.7 million in daily volume, down 1.19% from September. 

The largest ETPs by market capitalization are Grayscale Bitcoin Trust, with $5.8 billion, and Grayscale Ethereum Trust, with $1.25 billion, followed by ETC Group’s BTCE with $60 million and Wisdom Tree’s BTCW at $34 million.

Those with the highest yields in the last 30 days, however, were BTCE with 7.7% and BTCW with 7.3%, so much so that they even outperformed the BTC/USD spot market. 

Grayscale’s GDLC and ETCG, on the other hand, have recorded losses over the last 30 days of 19.9% and 17.6%, respectively. Grayscale products have generally underperformed the market in the last 30 days.
