In the same time period, Grayscale has offloaded some of its holdings in Bitcoin, Ethereum, Ethereum Classic, Horizen (ZEN), Stellar (XLM) and Basic Attention Token (BAT). The outflows of these digital assets are not a large portion of Grayscale’s holdings and should not be a cause of concern for retail investors.

However, the outflows are a confirmation of reduced interest in these products by institutional investors as the crypto markets lean towards a bear market.
