There's still all the second order effects of the etf that are yet to happen too

I more so meant all the regulations that are going to get repealed
👍🏼
You think Bitcoin’s commodity regulation under CFTC will be repealed?
Referring to stuff like this
I have doubts that comment is accurate. Fidelity is a broker dealer and custodies their own Bitcoin for their FBTC ETF.
I think he knows what he's talking about
I just disproved his claim with an example. Doesn’t seem like it.
Maybe nostr:npub1jpvsahpy0vgq7gu8nfqjkeskce0gwjk8jpss590xkvjh5xxe4epsruqgsz can answer better
You can buy bitcoin the asset on Choice by Kingdom Trust and probably Fidelity too and have Fidelity custody it for 1% annual fee. I’m not sure you can redeem in kind, but they definitely custody bitcoin and have been before the ETF got approved
I think he mentions just that? " a huge firm like fidelity ppl are fine with sine they trust apriori but a new firm like bitwise if we said we did self custody then many prospective investors would raise eye brows"
What is the inaccuracy?
“for example broker dealers (regulated by FINRA and SEC) aren't allowed to custody bitcoin or really touch it in any way”
This part appears inaccurate
