  • In this episode, Nik is joined by Bloomberg's senior ETF analyst Eric Balchunas. Eric details the records shattered by BlackRock's and Fidelity's bitcoin ETFs, explains why bitcoin gives investors portfolio completion, and forecasts the next couple years of institutional demand.

    Thank you Nik! Please bring Eric back in the future. He tweets really useful/interesting stuff in the ETF world, but it's even better when you ask questions and get him to go more in depth.

    I had Vanguard through my employer. I took approximately 800k out of my account and put 2/3 into bitcoin. Vanguard had no exposure to bitcoin and why would anyone stay in stocks and bonds??

    Revux's commitment to a transparent fee structure is refreshing. No hidden costs - just what the crypto community needs!

    Of the $10B into IBIT, how much of that was really just a transfer for lower fee?

    That’s nice but how much btc they own for etfs

  • @johnshaff
    @johnshaff Před 26 dny +1

    Eric has made his position very clear on numerous occasions that Vanguard is essentially the King and therefore they don’t even have to care about Bitcoin, much less it being a calculus of decision making. I find that opinion unrooted from reality.

  • @sr4169
    @sr4169 Před 27 dny

    Other Channels state that Vangurd owns a lot of MSTR. Maybe Vanguard doesn’t want to take custody, but Vanguard will incorporate many of the 937 companies that now hold BTC into their ETFs.

    Q: Where might investors see better gains in the future, holding one BTC at $67,000 or 145 BCH at $460 ?
    They share the same Genesis block, the same 21M max supply, the same miners and the same halvings.
    Bitcoin Cash is up about 300% in one year which is around twice as much as BTC and the BCH chart looks like Bitcoin in 2016 🤔

  • @joyjayant

    Vanguard will take over one of the existing ETF.

  • @kennethedwards3095
    @kennethedwards3095 Před 24 dny

    As the fiat ship takes on more water, we should expect to see more of these ETF families having their trusted children to set up self custody. This would signal a drawdown on the ETFs while the underlying asset accelerates the upward trend.

    . . . Bitcoin to 10million by 2033. Nothing can stop what's coming

  • @OnlyCompassionIsNeeded

    It seems to me that so many people were curious about increasing the amount of US dollars paper which was created out of thin air. I personally hold a small amount of Bitcoin because I don't see the value of US dollar which does lost ita value due to inflation. So I want to hold and wait till the day we can exchange things via Bitcoin and if or when we started to circulate Bitcoin as a means of exchange, FBR will really finish its role.

    Ive really appreciated watching Eric navigate the insanity of the "koolaid crypto crowd"... i think hes realizing how many everyday folks spend thousands of hours reading about markets and studying historical concepts in an attempt to understand his profession, and we have been brought here thanks to bitcoin incentivizing our thoughts and actions... the mentally ill crypto trolls that could never pass the marshmallow test are NOT representative of most people who humbly stack sats while quietly building a productive America in their day to day life. ❤

    None of this adds up.
    If so much money is coming into BTC, why is the price stagnate.
    The price is not going up.
    It’s stuck at 70k

    • @BrandonGParkes
      @BrandonGParkes Před 17 dny

      Supply on exchanges…… for now.
      Think of it like this.
      There’s 1000 BTC on exchanges. Every day 10 more are made, but money for 50 come in.
      No need for price to spike, the exchanges can support the extra 40. BUT, now the exchanges only have 960. That’s what’s coming.
      Google BTC exchanges at all time lows (and buckle up) !!!
