Their fees are a % of the ETF's assets under management each year, so they make money either way, but BTC price going up makes them more. E.g. $1bn assets, 0.2% p.a. fee = $2m p.a. . Suppose there's then noone buying or selling, but BTC price doubles, then assets would increase to $2bn and ETF issuer would get $4m p.a.

It's that key narrative that's drilled into people from childhood. "If prices don't go up people won't spend and we're all doomed". This belief is so ingrained and strong it will need some serious shocks to break it.

The drowning out of good initiatives by the ETF train is a shame. People think ETFs will be great for price, but in the long term they might actually hinder BTC's move to base money for economies as could just be seen as another alternative asset class. I'm hoping that a decent number of ETF investors will learn about it and realise the benefits of self custody, and its wider utility.

Yes, no free lunch with strategies like these. When I was running advisor best advice panels, I'd get plenty of new strategies pitched that I'd turn down. They always sounded great, but all of them did considerably worse over a full market cycle than just holding the plain assets. Half really crashed and burned.

Encryption infuriates politicians and other elites. It's the main thing that's preventing a next level of control and narrative. I expect there to be a 'crisis' in the next few years that leads the public to accept surveillance with open arms. Have to stay very vigilant and fight.

2023-12-17 00:16:10

My concern is that governments and corps will see this as an easy attack vector and think paying the fees is a bargain to clog up the network and make Bitcoin L1 very high fees indefinitely (earlier than it would have done if it had stayed BTC transaction data-focused only).

It's the small DCAers that were told to get their BTC off exchanges. They've built up huge amounts of UXTOs that are either going to be hit by v high % fees, or even turned to dust. Lots of disenchantment. Hope there's some automated solutions to help them soon.

If this is considered an attack vector for BTC it may be used by governments and corporations that see it as a threat. They may consider the cost a bargain in order to clog the network and make fees unattractive/turn small DCAers to dust. It could go on indefinitely.
