Dear SEC, I'm writing to support the conversion of Grayscale Bitcoin Trust (Symbol: GBTC), currently the world's largest Bitcoin fund, to the first Spot Bitcoin ETF in the United States. I
 live in Illinois and I don't believe as an American I need to live under a nanny state where politicians think they know better than me & need to 'protect' me from my investment decisions. I'm a full grown adult and can think and risk for myself. Sincerely,
 Brian Schmidt
