Cryptocurrency AUM

The New York-based digital asset management firm saw a sharp decline in the total value of its digital assets under management. On 13 May 2021, the company mentioned that the overall value of its cryptocurrency AUM reached an all-time high of approximately $53 billion. The recent decline in the overall value of the cryptocurrency market and a slowdown in institutional crypto inflows caused the latest drop of nearly $17 billion in the cryptocurrency holdings of Grayscale. The company has several other cryptocurrency assets under management including Ethereum Classic (ETC), Litecoin (LTC) and Bitcoin Cash (BCH). Grayscale’s Ethereum Classic trust is one of the most valuable investment trusts of the company. Grayscale has more than 12 million ETC under management with a total value of more than $900 million.

The overall market cap of digital currencies currently stands at around $1.6 trillion, which is a drop of more than 5% in the last 24 hours.
