What does good mean?<p>it&#x27;s futures based and I&#x27;ve seen roll costs estimated to be about 10%, though this should come down to 3-5%.<p>So that&#x27;s bad...<p>It does have a &quot;Canadian ETF&quot; clause, meaning it can hold the Canadian ETF&#x27;s to help reduce the reliance on futures, by holding existing Canadian Bitcoin ETF&#x27;s that already hold spot BTC.<p>So that&#x27;s good.<p>It has a management fee&#x2F;expense ratio of 0.95% which is bad.<p>But it means anyone with access to the US markets can now safely get btc exposure, which is good.<p>It was the fastest ETF to $1B in assets( GLD the gold etf was the previous holder) so it&#x27;s getting more attention than the old school store of value.<p>So that&#x27;s good.<p>But sooner or later a spot bitcoin ETF will come out that holds BTC, which will make people run from this ETF, which is bad.<p>So you really need to clarify what you mean by &quot;any good&quot;.
