Episode notes
Grayscale's ETF Fight
- Grayscale Bitcoin Trust’s attempt to convert to an ETF isn't about crypto's value.
- The SEC’s resistance seems driven by dislike for crypto, not its trading mechanics.
Bitcoin ETF's Impact
- A Bitcoin ETF won't necessarily increase adoption, but it improves liquidity for holders.
- It offers a better way to access Bitcoin compared to closed-end funds, especially with Grayscale needing to secure actual Bitcoins.
VinFast Overvaluation
- Avoid VinFast stock; its high valuation is likely manipulation due to low float.
- While Vietnam is an interesting market, the company's value doesn't match its fundamentals.
