The digital asset chief expert of VanEck, Gabor Gurbacs, has just tweeted that the first public Bitcoin fund, listed on the Toronto stock exchange two weeks ago, sold 163,716 shares yesterday.

He says this is yet another proof that institutional investors are interested in Bitcoin, despite what BTC critics keep saying.
