This is not a way to "grow Bitcoin". It's a way for a big holder to dump a lot of Bitcoins without, they hope, crashing the market.<p>The terms are awful: <i>"The Shareholders’ limited rights of legal recourse against the Trust, Trustee, Sponsor, Administrator, Trust Agency Service Provider and Custodian and the Trust’s lack of insurance protection expose the Trust and its Shareholders to the risk of loss of the Trust’s bitcoins for which no person is liable."</i><p><i>"The Trust will not insure its bitcoins. The Custodian will maintain insurance with regard to its custodial business on such terms and conditions as it considers appropriate in connection with its custodial obligations and will be responsible for all costs, fees and expenses arising from the insurance policy or policies. The Trust will not be a beneficiary of any such insurance and does not have the ability to dictate the existence, nature or amount of coverage. Therefore, Shareholders cannot be assured that the Custodian will maintain adequate insurance or any insurance with respect to the bitcoins held by the Custodian on behalf of the Trust. Further, Shareholders’ recourse against the Trust, Custodian and Sponsor under [New York] law governing their custody operations is limited. Similarly, the Shareholders’ recourse against the Administrator and Trust Agency Service Provider for the services they provide to the Trust, including those relating to the provision of instructions relating to the movement of bitcoins, is limited. Consequently, a loss may be suffered with respect to the Trust’s bitcoins which is not covered by insurance and for which no person is liable in damages."</i><p>I've never seen terms this unfavorable to shareholders in a prospectus before. They're taking on less liability than Mt. Gox took on. If the Bitcoins mysteriously disappear, no one is liable.
