ETF Investors Return to Profitability
According to Bloomberg ETF analyst James Seyffart, the average bitcoin ETF holder has moved back above water for the first time since January, with an estimated cost basis of approximately $81,722 per BTC, below Monday's trading price. This shift reflects renewed sentiment as ETF investors hold unrealized gains while fresh capital enters at the fastest pace of the year.
