When I joined @Grayscale in 2014, we sponsored one investment product - Grayscale #Bitcoin Trust - and managed $60 million in AUM. Today, we have a family of 15 products and manage more than $53 billion in AUM.
Our team has worked tirelessly to build $GBTC into the world’s largest, most transparent #Bitcoin investment vehicle while partnering with policymakers and regulators to build familiarity and trust in Bitcoin, #blockchain, and the underlying digital currency market.
Grayscale Bitcoin Trust was approved for a public quotation in May 2015. Today, $GBTC is owned by investors in all 50 states, representing over 700K retail and institutional accounts.
One of the most important milestones in @Grayscale’s history was seeing $GBTC approved as the very first crypto SEC reporting investment vehicle, which helped move the entire digital currency ecosystem forward. Today marks yet another major milestone...
We’ve partnered with @NYSE Arca to file Form 19b-4 with the SEC to convert Grayscale #Bitcoin Trust (OTCQX: $GBTC) into a Bitcoin Spot ETF -- the natural next step in its evolution.
This is an important moment for our investors, our industry partners, and all those who realize the potential of digital currencies to transform our future. #BitcoinETF
Let me be clear: None of this deliberate, responsible growth would have been possible without the commitment and work of the 40+ @Grayscale team members. This is a world-class team. Full stop.
None of this would be possible without the incredible vision of our Founder, @BarrySilbert, who knew *years* before anyone that crypto would be a bona fide investable asset class.
@Grayscale has long pioneered opportunities for investors to more readily access the ever-evolving digital currency asset class, and we will continue to do so in the months and years ahead.
