GBTC Grayscale Bitcoin Trust ETF

Grayscale Investments®, an asset management firm with over a decade of expertise in crypto investing, offering more than 25 crypto investment products, and manager of Grayscale® Bitcoin Mini Trust  (NYSE Arca: BTC) and Grayscale® Ethereum Mini Trust (NYSE Arca: ETH), today announced that its lowest-fee* Bitcoin and Ether ETPs – symbols: BTC and ETH – have together garnered more than $750,000,000 inflows since the products launched on July 31, 2024, and July 23, 2024, respectively, just three months ago. 

Grayscale Bitcoin Mini Trust ("BTC") and Grayscale Ethereum Mini Trust ("ETH"), exchange traded products, are not registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940 (or the ’40 Act) and therefore are not subject to the same regulations and protections as 1940 Act registered ETFs and mutual funds. 

“Crypto is still in the very early stages of adoption, and the success of BTC and ETH to-date is emblematic of strong client demand for low-cost ETPs that enable simple, convenient, flexible exposure to top crypto assets,” said John Hoffman Grayscale Managing Director, Head of Distribution and Partnerships. “Grayscale has long prioritized bridging the gap between traditional finance and the crypto ecosystem because we believe our clients deserve the ability to gain exposure to digital assets through the trusted ETP wrapper. The Grayscale team is focused on helping all investors navigate the digital asset class, as they seek to future-proof their financial portfolios and practices.”  

Since July 2024: 

• Grayscale® Bitcoin Mini Trust (NYSE Arca: BTC) is the lowest-cost Bitcoin ETP in the world with over $2B AUM, as of October 24, 2024, at 0.15% (15bps) annually.  
• Grayscale® Ethereum Mini Trust (NYSE Arca: ETH) is the lowest-fee Ether ETP in the world with over $1B AUM, as of October 24, 2024, at 0.15% (15bps) annually.  
• Combined, BTC and ETH, have generated net inflows of over $750,000,000 to-date. 

Symbols: BTC and ETH are the most cost-effective financial products for investors looking to gain exposure to Bitcoin and Ether, the market-leading assets in the transformational blockchain technology industry.
