**ETF BTC holdings *claims*

Since most of it is through Coinbase, true..

I’m not aware of a single etfCo providing a publicly provably verifiable method to check said claim.

The analyst bros dont have proof of reserves as far as I can see.

I mean merkle tree proof of reserves

Yeah, I don’t know how they get them, some like Grayscale have been ‘known’ for a while..

Skepticism is good, and I think they will show “public proof of reserve” eventually, as it’s a good way to attract funds to your product, but you could apply the same thinking to every ETF. I’m not auditing the SPDR 500 ETF either.

💯

The key difference here is that you have monetary protocol tech with support for proof of reserves, whereas on the SP500 it is fiat tech, managed by humans and reliant on human verification.

Exactly, and why I think they will do it. My bet is on Fideity doing it first.
