[This is very interesting. Very. Jan]
The price of Bitcoin BTC hit $60,000 Friday for the first time in six months. The rising valuation could continue with news that a Bitcoin Futures ETF is on the way.
What Happened: Bloomberg added a ticker to a Bitcoin ETF to its data feed, signaling the strong likelihood that the first U.S. Bitcoin Futures ETF hits the market next week.
“Bloomberg’s data team in the process of adding the ProShares Bitcoin Strategy ETF to the terminal,” Bloomberg’s James Seyffart reports.
The Bitcoin ETF from ProShares will trade with ticker BITO. The ETF lists a management fee of 0.95%, which Seyffart notes is less than half of the 2% currently charged by the Grayscale Bitcoin Trust
“This thing is going live next week. Either Monday or Tuesday," he said. The Bloomberg feed shows a date of Oct. 19.
Why It’s Important: Many companies have filed for Bitcoin ETFs over the years, only to be rejected by the SEC.
It has become increasingly likely that Bitcoin ETFs will be approved, which could lead to a handful hitting the market next week and even more by the end of the year. ProShares could grab early first mover advantage and see strong inflows.
The lower management fee from BITO could be bad news for Grayscale Bitcoin Trust. GBTC, which trades similar to an ETF but is a trust, has amassed $37.3 billion in assets under management since launching in 2013.
GBTC shares are up 395% over the trailing 12 months and up over 38,0000% since launching in 2013.
Many ETF companies have launched funds that offer exposure to Bitcoin via mining companies or companies that hold Bitcoin on their balance sheet.
The Viridi Cleaner Energy Crypto-Mining & Semiconductor ETF launched in July and has seen shares increase 55% since launching.
Price Action: BTC is trading at $60,163.80 at the time of writing.
Bitcoin passed Facebook Inc earlier this week to become the sixth-largest publicly traded company or cryptocurrency with a market cap of $1.14 trillion, according to AssetDash.com.
S.Africa: AIDS madness: Blacks having sex with: Dogs, Goats and Donkeys
AIDS is making Blacks crazy in so many ways. First it was the raping of babies which has not stopped. But now they are turning to bestiality. I have mentioned such stories in the past and put them on the site.
Video: Keeping Whites DOWN: Scientific & Historic FACTS that have to be HIDDEN from Whites
This is a very important video that I put a tremendous amount of effort into. I wanted to summarize scientific and historic facts from 40,000 Years of the history of the European (White) race. This is the story of where we come from and how we came to be what we are, and why we are awesome. We look at thousands of years of the effort of our ancestors.
