Grayscale Bitcoin Trust ETF is trading 3.4% down today as bitcoin prices slide following an escalation in U.S.–Iran military conflict, which is driving investors out of risky crypto assets and into safe havens.
- The decline reflects crypto-specific pressure, as broader U.S. equity indices remain roughly flat despite the geopolitical volatility.
- Selling pressure is compounded by continued outflows from spot bitcoin ETFs following a weak May and lingering concerns regarding persistent inflation and delayed Fed rate cuts.
