Self-custody is king, BUT if you are not up to it... YET, the Bitwise ETF is not only the cheapest but 10% of profits will go to open-source devs through Opensats, Brink, and the HRF.

The only issue is that they use Coinbase as a custodian instead of self-custodying themselves, like how Fidelity is doing.

You can also pay more and go with the memes with $BRRR if you are rich.

I wonder if they will ever show proof of reserves for these.

- Bitwise, Coinbase / $BITB / 0.20%, 10% of profits to Opensats, Brink, HRF
- Fidelity, Own / $FBTC / 0.25%
- Ark Invest, Coinbase / $ARKB / 0.21%
- BlackRock, Coinbase / $IBIT / 0.25%
- VanEck, Gemini / $HODL / 0.25%, for the OGs.
- Franklin, Coinbase / $EZBC / 0.29%
- Wisdom Tree, Coinbase / $BTCW / 0.30%
- Invesco, Coinbase / $BTCO / 0.39%
- Valkyrie, Coinbase / $BRRR / 0.49%, for the memes!
- Hashdex, BitGo / $DEFI / 0.90%
- Grayscale, Coinbase / $GBTC / 1.50%

I really wish it would "self-custody" would morph into "self-utxo management". Because it's a crucial aspect that self-custody proponents have overlooked in amping people into cold storage.

I'll go on record stating Bitwise is a shitcoin. Looked at what they did with the debut of their bitcoin index fund. They pumped BITW and dumped it on retail. Fuck Bitwise. They don't have the integrity to back the promise of donating 10%. https://finance.yahoo.com/quote/BITW?p=BITW&.tsrc=fin-srch

Bitwise are shitcoiners. Fidelity if you must and donate yourself.

I'd hope no one on here is fool enough to put their money with these clowns. Stack your own sats and donate to opensats

I don't understand why these big guys don't self custody and cut out Coinbase. it seems dumb to pay another party to manage something you can manage yourself and also take on the risk of whatever shenanigans Coinbase does. ofc, self custody is king but the accessibility for the masses with ETFs is...
