Potential Approval of Bitcoin ETF Raises Concerns Over Self-Custody and Market Distortion

A potential approval of a spot Bitcoin exchange-traded fund (ETF) in the United States is raising concerns among analysts about the impact it could have on the original vision of Bitcoin. Josef Tetek, a Bitcoin analyst at Trezor, argues that a spot Bitcoin ETF conflicts with the idea of self-custody, which is a fundamental principle of Bitcoin. Unlike a Bitcoin ETF, self-custodial crypto storage solutions allow users to have full control and ownership of their Bitcoin by holding the private key.

Tetek believes that spot Bitcoin ETFs could introduce systemic risks and move people further away from self-custody. He warns that large quantities of BTC stored in central locations could be vulnerable to government seizure, similar to the confiscation of gold in the United States in the 1930s. Additionally, Tetek points out that spot Bitcoin ETFs do not allow for the withdrawal of the underlying asset, potentially leading to the creation of “paper Bitcoin” that is not backed by actual Bitcoin.

While some firms and analysts are optimistic about the approval of a spot Bitcoin ETF, not everyone shares the same sentiment. Arthur Hayes, co-founder of BitMEX, believes that spot Bitcoin ETFs could “completely destroy” Bitcoin if they become too successful. Others argue that spot Bitcoin ETFs could compete with centralized crypto exchanges like Coinbase due to their lower fees.

However, Mati Greenspan, founder of Quantum Economics, sees no direct conflict between self-custody and spot Bitcoin ETFs. He suggests that retail users will continue to prefer self-custody, while institutions may find ETFs more appealing. Greenspan advises retail investors to hold Bitcoin directly rather than opting for Bitcoin ETFs.

Overall, the potential approval of a spot Bitcoin ETF in the United States has sparked debates about the impact on self-custody, the risk of government seizure, and the creation of unbacked Bitcoin. While some see it as a positive development, others express concerns about the potential consequences for the original vision of Bitcoin.
