Bitcoin ETFs Gain Exposure Through Strategic Expansions in US and Australia
Bitcoin ETFs Rise in US and Australia
BlackRock, the world's largest asset manager, has expanded its spot Bitcoin exchange-traded fund (ETF), IBIT, in the US. The firm added five new Authorized Participants (APs), enhancing the fund's accessibility and liquidity for investors. These entities are essential in the ETF's operation, facilitating the creation and redemption of shares.
IBIT, operational since January 11, 2024, stands as a signal of the growing confidence in and demand for Bitcoin as a legitimate asset class. The increasing mainstream acceptance of Bitcoin is further demonstrated by Monochrome Asset Management's strategic decision to list its Bitcoin ETF on Cboe Australia.
