Investrade is thrilled to bring you groundbreaking news in the cryptocurrency space- the Securities and Exchange Commission has officially approved the first-ever spot market Bitcoin Exchange Traded Funds (ETFs), and they are now available for trading at Investrade, for $0 commission!
Here's what you need to know about this significant development:
1. What's a Spot Market Bitcoin ETF?
A spot Bitcoin ETF is an exchange-traded fund - a highly liquid fund that changes price throughout the trading day, just like a stock - that directly tracks the price of Bitcoin, primarily by holding a large amount of the cryptocurrency itself.
2. Eleven New Bitcoin ETFs Across Major Exchanges:
The SEC has approved eleven new ETFs, now listed on the NYSE Arca, Cboe BZX, and Nasdaq exchanges. These ETFs, covering a variety of offerings, include:
· Grayscale Bitcoin Trust (GBTC)· Bitwise Bitcoin ETF (BITB)· Hashdex Bitcoin ETF (DEFI)· ARK 21Shares Bitcoin ETF (ARKB)· Invesco Galaxy Bitcoin ETF (BTCO)· VanEck Bitcoin Trust (HODL)· WisdomTree Bitcoin Fund (BTCW)· Fidelity Wise Origin Bitcoin Fund (FBTC)· Franklin Bitcoin ETF (EZBC)· iShares Bitcoin Trust (IBIT)· Valkyrie Bitcoin Fund (BRRR)
3. Simplifying Bitcoin Investments:
When you invest in a Bitcoin ETF, you're essentially buying shares that represent a basket of Bitcoin in the fund's portfolio. The value of your investment will move in tandem with changes in Bitcoin prices. This provides a hassle-free way for investors to gain exposure to Bitcoin without the complexities of direct ownership and storage.
4. Easy Trading Through Investrade:
Trading Bitcoin ETFs is now more accessible than ever. Investors can seamlessly buy and sell shares in these new funds through Investrade, for $0 commission, eliminating the need for a hot or cold storage wallet to secure crypto private keys.
5. Competitive Fees and Waivers:
Multiple Bitcoin ETFs hitting the market on January 11, 2024. Sparked a fee war among issuers, with each trying to entice investors with waivers and fee reductions. We urge you to research and thoroughly understand the fee structure before making any purchase decisions related to these ETFs.
6. Consider the Risks of Bitcoin:
Investors should be aware of potential risks associated with Bitcoin ETFs. These include the inherent volatility of Bitcoin markets, which may impact the performance of associated ETFs, along with market and liquidity risks that can affect the ability to buy or sell shares at desired prices. Regulatory changes, technological vulnerabilities, fees, and the influence of market sentiment are additional factors contributing to the complexity and risk profile of Bitcoin ETFs.
This groundbreaking development marks a significant step towards democratizing access to Bitcoin investments. As always, we encourage you to do your research, thoroughly understand the risks, and make informed decisions.
