The iShares Bitcoin Trust (IBTC) is a proposed exchange-traded fund ([[ETF]]) that aims to track the price of Bitcoin. Developed by BlackRock, the world's largest asset manager, it would allow investors to gain exposure to [[Bitcoin]] through a traditional investment vehicle traded on stock exchanges. This would make investing in Bitcoin more accessible to a wider range of investors, as they could buy and sell shares of IBTC through their regular brokerage accounts. While not yet approved by the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC), IBTC has generated significant interest as it could potentially simplify Bitcoin investment and bring further legitimacy to the cryptocurrency market.
