We hope this finds you safe and healthy. In an increasingly uncertain and ever-evolving world, we aim to bring transparency and insights to investors as they navigate investing in digital currencies. With that in mind, we are pleased to share the Grayscale Digital Asset Investment Report for Q1 2020. Our record-breaking quarter suggests that investors may be tactically using pricing drawdowns to increase their exposure to digital assets, and represents an encouraging trend in support of the role that Bitcoin and other digital assets may play in a new global financial environment. 1Q20 highlights include:
•§Grayscale raised $503.7 million into its investment products, our strongest quarter ever, despite broad-based volatility.
•§Grayscale® Bitcoin Trust continued to lead investment demand with inflows of $388.9 million, the largest capital raise in a single quarter. This coincided with Grayscale Bitcoin Trust becoming an SEC reporting company in January 2020.
•§Demand for Grayscale® Ethereum Trust grew nearly 2.5x from 4Q19 to 1Q20.
•§The majority of investments continued to come from institutional investors, accounting for 88% of investment in 1Q20.
•§Investors continued to broaden their digital asset exposure, with approximately 38% of investors having now invested in multiple Grayscale products.
