The assets under management for Hong Kong’s Bitcoin ETFs have exceeded $250 million, signaling a growing market confidence despite slower initial performance compared to U.S. ETFs.

Hong Kong Bitcoin ETFs Reach $250M AUM

The assets under management (AUM) of spot Bitcoin ETFs in Hong Kong have topped 2 billion Hong Kong dollars, or around $256 million.

When contrasted with their American counterparts, the Hong Kong Bitcoin TFs got off to a slower start.

Hong Kong Bitcoin ETFs Receive 247 BTC Inflows Amid Market Growth

Information gathered by SoSo Value indicates that the three spot Bitcoin ETFs based in Hong Kong saw a net inflow of about 247 BTC last week, increasing their overall holdings to about 4,450 BTC. Nearly $269 million, or HK$2.1 billion, is the current total AUM for the ETFs.

OSL, a digital asset trading platform, is a partner of China Asset Management and Harvest Asset Management, two ETF operators with AUM of over HK$1.3 billion ($167 million). Separate from OSL, the third-place Bitcoin ETF has HK$776 million ($99.5 million), or over 42% of the market.

Bitcoin ETFs in Hong Kong Face Limited Investor Options

In contrast to the eleven offerings in the US market, investors in Hong Kong have a limited number of options to acquire exposure to BTC.

Per Cointelegraph, although there have been recent inflows, spot Bitcoin ETFs in Hong Kong have lagged behind their US equivalents. In the first week after the ETFs' April 30 launch, they received $262 million in inflows, the vast majority of which was subscribed prior to the listings going live.

When US spot Bitcoin ETFs debuted in January, they received billions of dollars in inflows; in comparison, actual asset inflows during the first week were a meager $14 million.

Hong Kong ETFs Struggle to Match US Bitcoin ETF Growth

Attempts by Hong Kong to establish itself as a center for Bitcoin investments are hindered by this discrepancy.

According to Bloomberg ETF analyst Rebecca Sin, there is a one-of-a-kind chance to boost AUM and trading volume through the city's in-kind ETF origination mechanism. When compared to the American market, Hong Kong's investor interest and capital inflows are still lower.
