Today’s episode is brought to you by Franklin Templeton, manager of 70-plus ETFs in the US, including EZBC, Franklin Bitcoin ETF.

In ETF land, they like to try to have memorable tickers. I think they nailed it with EZBC – because the spot bitcoin ETF gives investors an easy way to get exposure to bitcoin, without having to worry about private keys, digital wallets and all that stuff.

EZBC has zero fees – they’ve waived it to zero - until August 2024. That’s followed by the lowest ongoing fee of 19 basis points.

We had a guest from Franklin Templeton recently who reminded us that the firm has a 75-Year history of innovation. They’ve actually had big digital assets focus and presence since 2018 – they’ve been building blockchain-based technology solutions, developing a range of investment strategies and running node validators. They launched the first US registered mutual fund to use public blockchains to process transactions and record share ownership. Really cool stuff from a firm with a solid footprint and trusted legacy in traditional finance.
