These filings arrive just as the deadline for first-quarter 13F reports passes, marking a pivotal moment as this was the first quarter investors could broadly purchase spot Bitcoin ETFs.
这些文件是在第一季度13F报告的最后期限到来之际提交的，这标志着一个关键时刻，因为这是投资者可以广泛购买现货比特币ETF的第一季度。
Matt Hougan, CIO of Bitwise, commented on the surge of institutional filings, estimating that nearly 700 professional firms would have invested almost $5 billion by the May 15 deadline.
Bitwise首席信息官马特·霍根对机构申请激增发表了评论，估计到5月15日的最后期限，将近700家专业公司将投资近50亿美元。
Hougan described this trend as reaching a "historical scale of professional investor ownership," likening it to the launch of gold ETFs in 2004, which was previously considered the most successful ETF launch.
霍根将这种趋势描述为达到了 “专业投资者所有权的历史规模”，将其比作2004年推出的黄金ETF，该基金以前被认为是最成功的ETF推出。
Despite this influx of institutional money, Hougan noted that retail investments still constitute the majority of the $50 billion in assets under management (AUM) in spot Bitcoin ETFs.
尽管机构资金大量涌入，但霍根指出，零售投资仍然占现货比特币ETF管理的500亿美元资产（AUM）的大部分。
"Retail investors remain the largest contributors, demonstrating the widespread interest and confidence in Bitcoin ETFs," Hougan observed.
