Pop quiz: Who is the only asset manager with two Bitcoin ETPs?
Answer: Grayscale!
Most of you might have heard about $GBTC - their flagship Bitcoin ETP.
But their other ETP, BTC, might actually be the better choice. Here’s why:
BTC is the cheapest Bitcoin ETP in the U.S.! 🔥
With a 0.15% management fee, it undercuts competitors charging 0.19%-0.25%. Sure, the difference might seem small but the savings add up over time.
BTC offers the same Bitcoin exposure but with lower fees (sounds like a no-brainer to me).
