According to a recent Bloomberg <a href="https://www.bloomberg.com/news/articles/2024-02-23/ria-carson-group-greenlights-four-spot-bitcoin-etfs-for-retail-buyers" target="_blank" rel="noopener nofollow">report</a>, Carson Group, an Omaha, Nebraska-based registered investment advisor (RIA) with a substantial $30 billion on its platform, announced the approval of four of the ten newly launched Bitcoin ETFs. 
Among the approved ETFs are BlackRock’s iShares Bitcoin Trust (IBIT), managing $6.6 billion, and Fidelity’s Wise Origin Bitcoin Fund (FBTC), with $4.8 billion in assets. These two products have experienced the highest investor inflows so far. Additionally, smaller offerings from Bitwise and Franklin Templeton made the cut.

Grant Engelbart, Vice President and Investment Strategist at Carson Group, stated that the firm prioritized “significant asset growth” and <a href="https://bitcoinist.com/without-spot-bitcoin-etfs-btc-down-20-founder/" target="_blank" rel="noopener ">trading volume</a> when selecting IBIT and FBTC.&nbsp; 
Meanwhile, Bitwise’s $1.2 billion Bitcoin ETF and Franklin Templeton’s $100 million Bitcoin ETFs, which will eventually charge fees of 0.2% and 0.19%, respectively, are among the least expensive offerings in the Bitcoin ETF space. 
Engelbart highlighted the importance of offering products from two of the largest asset managers in the industry, BlackRock and Fidelity. He acknowledged Bitwise and Franklin Templeton for committing to being <a href="https://bitcoinist.com/spot-bitcoin-etfs-coming-south-korea-ruling-party/" target="_blank" rel="noopener ">low-cost providers</a> in the space and their notable inflows and trading volumes. Engelbart further noted: 
<blockquote>
 We feel it is important to offer these products as a result from two of the largest asset managers in the industry,” Engelbart said of BlackRock and Fidelity’s ETFs. Bitwise and Franklin Templeton have committed to being the lowest-cost providers in the space, and have also seen large inflows and trading volumes. Both firms also have established in-house digital asset research teams and expertise that we feel are beneficial to the continuing growth and management of the products, as well as advisor research and education
</blockquote> 
Both firms have established “in-house” <a href="https://bitcoinist.com/bitcoin-etfs-record-2-2-billion-inflow-in-past-week/" target="_blank" rel="noopener ">digital asset</a> research teams and expertise, which Carson Group believes will benefit the products’ growth, management, advisor research, and education. 
<h2 id="catalysts-for-trillions-in-assets-under-management">Catalysts For Trillions In Assets Under Management?&nbsp;</h2> 
According to Bitwise CEO Hunter Horsley, the approval of Bitcoin ETFs by platform providers can act as a significant catalyst for fund growth, especially considering that financial advisors oversee trillions of dollars in assets.&nbsp; 
Horsley emphasized that over half of the US, wealth is part of a platform and can only access approved products. Ultimately, Bitwise’s CEO noted that<a href="https://bitcoinist.com/shift-to-crypto-401k-market-poised-to-enter-bitcoin-etfs-standard-chartered-analyst-says/" target="_blank" rel="noopener "> financial platforms </a>“have been busy.” Still, with the emergence of ETFs and the presence of products with over a billion in assets under management (AUM), they are now doing the necessary work. 
Carson Group’s decision to approve four Bitcoin ETFs reflects the growing interest in digital assets within the investment advisory space. The chosen ETFs offer a range of attributes, including significant asset growth, trading volume, competitive fees, and expertise from renowned asset management firms.&nbsp; 
As financial platforms continue to evaluate and approve such products, it is expected that the accessibility and <a href="https://bitcoinist.com/evaluating-performance-bitcoin-etfs-since-launch/" target="_blank" rel="noopener ">adoption </a>of Bitcoin ETFs will expand, enabling a broader base of investors to gain exposure to the cryptocurrency market.
