On the one hand: I don't think any news is bad news for Bitcoin, so a whole new cohort of people are now involved, which is great
On the other: If I was a government, calling 10 ETF managers and telling them the Bitcoin they hold on behalf of their customers is impounded, with cash equivalent to be paid out, could be the greatest rug pull of all time

that would prove it had some real value if they wanted it that bad
Of course it would, and the price would 10x, but the Gov would also still have 1 mil coins to work with

They never rug their mates though.

So you don't think Blackrock would let them do it?
Maybe not
Or they would have to let them do it, in order to stay in business with all their other assets under management...?
couldn't they also call up Blackrock and say "give us all your Apple shares".
what's the difference? why do we trust them with Apple shares but not bitcoin
Ha.. Quite possible. This level of scoundrelism wouldn't Suprise me at all.
