$2.7 Billion: Crypto Giant Grayscale Hits All-Time High in Assets Under Management

July 17, 2019

Grayscale, the world’s largest cryptocurrency asset manager, reached a new all-time high in volume in Q2 2019, thanks in large part to institutional investors.

The firm says it hit $2.7 billion in assets under management.

“Grayscale assets under management (AUM) nearly tripled: Grayscale AUM grew from $926 million at the end of Q1 2019 million to $2.7 billion at the end of Q2, and all ten investment vehicles included in the Grayscale family of products generated positive performance, net of fees for the first time.”

…

“Inflows nearly doubled quarter-over-quarter, from $42.7 to $84.8 million, demonstrating that the recent rally in digital asset prices is supported by fresh investment and despite the fact that the Grayscale Bitcoin Trust was temporarily closed to new investment throughout May and June…

“This quarter, institutional investors comprised the highest percentage of total demand for Grayscale products (84%) since we began publishing this report in July 2018.”

Since hitting the all-time high, Grayscale AUM dipped along with the price of Bitcoin, with the figure now standing at $2.5 billion.
