The VanEck #Bitcoin ETF will use the $HODL ticker symbol. VanEck will use Coinbase to custody their coins for them. Ironic.
Discussion
All just marketing 😅
I was impressed when I saw that the Fidelity fund plans to self-custody, but I guess it’s not surprising given their history. For those who have accounts where the money is unfortunately locked into trad-fi, the Fidelity ETF seems like the only one of them worth considering.
fidelity is the only one out of all of them that is doing it correctly.
I will continue to use me as the trusted custodian of my Bitcoin.
Although it is yet to be seen if I am a truly responsible custodian.
honestly, it’s debatable.
I heard off Bloomberg that VanEck was going to use Gemini for custody. Are you sure they’re going to use Coinbase? I saw a graphic that showed Fidelity was going to self custody, hashdex was unknown, and 9 of the 12 are using Coinbase. If vaneck is using Coinbase now that would be 10 of 12.
