Q: Hello,
I know you have answered many questions on this subject but can i get more clarity please? First, are you able to add the symbol BMNR to your list. I chose SBET as you have that in your list. When i look at price of bitcoin for last 5 years, it has gone up alot. However, MicroStrategy's return over the same period is much higher (it holds bitcoin). How could the difference be so diverse. I am wondering if i should go with sbet and bmnr (equal amounts) as opposed to Ethereum etfs.. Please comment and if you feel the etf route is best , what are the elf's you suggest in cdn $ for bitcoin and Ethereum?

Q: hi folks:

i try my best to avoid any counter party risk in my portfolio (because i am a luddite and think the derivative markets are in search of a pin)

2 questions:

are there any crypto etfs/funds that you are aware of that actually hold the underlying crypto asset?

seondly (with the same proviso) are you aware of a'one stop' crypto etf that would have say 50% BTC and the balance allocated amongst the 'others'

overall, looking for a one ticket solution with actual ownership

thank you

ps. as i understand it,. assets like IBIT, ETC ......do not meet the 'ownership criteria' noted; whereas FBTC (fidelity) and BTCC (purpose) do

Q: Ethereum has dropped from a high of $4100 to below $2600, could you please explain why, also when Bitcoin has generally stayed in the $100k range? Is this a buying opportunity? If it is, is there a Canadian ETF to put money into? Thanks in advance. Also, many thanks for your answer on my previous question on BTC, it was extremely detailed and well thought out.
