Prospective issuers of spot Bitcoin ETFs in the United States have disclosed the initial funding amounts for their products in updated S-1 filings with the SEC<\/span>.<\/p>\n

Investment firm VanEck announced<\/a> its intention to allocate $72.5 million for the structure.<\/p>\n

BlackRock will commit<\/a> $10 million to the launch of its Bitcoin ETF.<\/p>\n

Bitwise Asset Management has planned<\/a> an initial investment of $500,000. Meanwhile, Pantera Capital expressed interest in investing $200 million in a Bitcoin fund. According to the filing, this intention is not a legally binding obligation for the firm.<\/p>\n

The Valkyrie fund will receive<\/a> $525,000 from its parent company through share purchases. The initial funding for the Bitcoin ETF from ARK Invest and 21Shares will amount to $437,000.<\/p>\n

In late December, WisdomTree allocated<\/a> $2.5 million to a subsidiary designated as the sponsor of the future fund. Around the same time, Invesco and Galaxy took a similar approach, with their joint product investment reaching<\/a> $5.1 million.<\/p>\n

Issuers also provided final details on the fee structures for crypto ETFs. Bitwise announced the lowest fixed fee rate at 0.24%. VanEck follows with 0.25%, but the firm also plans a zero fee for the first 3-6 months. BlackRock will start with a 0.2% fee, which will later increase to 0.3%.<\/p>\n

Amidst these developments, Grayscale Investments reduced its fee from 2% to 1.5% as part of the proposed conversion of its Bitcoin Trust into a spot ETF. At the time of writing, the assets of the Grayscale Bitcoin Trust amount<\/a> to nearly $29 billion. The trust holds over 622,600 BTC, or about 3% of the total issuance of the first cryptocurrency.<\/p>\n

Earlier, two days before the SEC’s decision on spot Bitcoin ETFs, the agency’s head, Gary Gensler, warned of the volatile nature of crypto assets and the associated risks.<\/p>\n

According to Matrixport analyst Markus Thielen, the regulator is expected to reject all product applications in January, contrary to the expectations of some experts.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
