Truth Social Withdraws Spot Bitcoin ETF Filing Amid Fee Competition
- Increased Market Competition: Truth Social's withdrawal of its spot Bitcoin ETF filing highlights the intensified competitive landscape following Morgan Stanley's launch of the MSBT with a 14-basis-point fee, making it increasingly difficult for new entrants to stand out in a market dominated by larger asset managers.
- Product Structure Reset: The ETF was designed as a passive Bitcoin trust intended to hold Bitcoin through a custodian and reflect BTC performance, but it faced formidable competition from existing ETFs in terms of liquidity, brand trust, and fees, prompting Truth Social to reconsider its product structure.
- Potential of the 1940 Act: Seyffart suggested that Truth Social may pivot to a more flexible crypto ETF under the Investment Company Act of 1940, allowing for a different product structure that avoids direct competition with plain spot Bitcoin trusts, thereby keeping its crypto fund plans alive.
- Increased Market Concentration: The withdrawal leaves the spot Bitcoin ETF market more concentrated around issuers with scale, low fees, and strong distribution power, and while Truth Social still has room to pursue crypto fund products through alternative structures, the appeal of a plain Bitcoin ETF significantly diminishes without a sharper fee or broader strategy.
