Eric Balchunas of Bloomberg Intelligence explains why the spot Bitcoin ETFs have made TradFi move at the speed of crypto — and why he’s uncertain spot Ether ETFs will be approved.
In this episode, Eric Balchunas, senior ETF Analyst at Bloomberg Intelligence, discussed the performance of Bitcoin ETFs since their launch two months ago.
Balchunas noted that the ETFs' performance exceeded his expectations, with a faster and more intense "second wind" than anticipated. He attributed this to a combination of asset managers buying in, retail interest, and the "ETF effect" where the knowledge of incoming flows encourages non-ETF investors to buy.
Balchunas also predicted that BlackRock's Bitcoin ETF would likely be the most successful of the nine new spot Bitcoin ETFs, while also doubting that any of the smaller issuers would bow out.
He also discussed the potential for spot Ether ETFs, but was less optimistic about their success compared to Bitcoin ETFs.

A discussion on the intermediation of physical and digital spaces with contemporary conceptual artist Cole Sternberg - exploring the possibilities of crypto for reimagining money, community, power systems and law for a freer society.
In this week's installment of "Money Reimagined," hosts Michael Casey and Sheila Warren are joined by Cole Sternberg, a contemporary conceptual artist known for his thought-provoking and socially conscious artworks, to discuss physical vs digital art, NFTs, and Cole’s free republic of CA project.
Takeaways |
NFTs have the potential to revolutionize the art world by allowing artists to create unique digital artifacts and connect with a global audience.
The intersection of the digital and physical in art opens up new possibilities for creativity and expression.
The blockchain provides transparency and the ability to transform art over time, creating an ongoing dialogue between the artist and the audience.
The perception of NFTs in the artistic community is evolving, with some artists embracing the technology and others remaining skeptical. The original sin in crypto is the financialization of Bitcoin, which can make it challenging for people to move beyond that mental model and explore the broader potential of blockchain technology.
NFTs have both hype and utility, with those who have stuck with them deriving value, functionality, and utility beyond just financial gains.
The Free Republic of California is an artistic representation of a new country, showcasing the power of reimagining governance and community.
The economic assumptions of the Free Republic of California can be debated, but the concept aims to show that positive change is possible by reallocating resources and empowering local communities.
Crypto and decentralization offer possibilities for reimagining money and community, allowing for transparency, accountability, and the visualization of systems.
