Q: Both funds hold BTC only, no other alt coins that I can see. The current price has a premium to NAV of 27% and 3% for QBTC.U. Why such a huge spread ? I know GBTC is much bigger but still it makes no sense to me. Do you have an explanation ? Also am I correct to assume the price of these 2 stocks will move pretty much in line with the price of BTC ? If you had to buy one which would you buy ?
Thanks

Q: Dear 5i,

I have questions about BABY listed on venture exchange.
This appears to be a holding company listed on the venture exchange but, the company resides in Israel. Can you explain why they might have this structure? The company doesn't look like it makes money yet and it seems heavily promotional and they also appear to do a lot of equity issues. Should one be cautious about these stories? It sounds like they have a licensing agreement to sell and existing product already in Israel to the North American market. If one were to invest 2% would you purchase in a NonReg or TFSA account? Please deduct points as required and thanks.

Q: My question is related to the storage quantity of gold and silver at Sprott. As I buy and sell PHYS and PSLV on the TSX I assume I am selling to OR buying from another trader in the market. Where does Sprott obtain the funds to add to its holdings or are the physical holdings constant after funds from the IPO were invested in the metals? Am I trading around those initial physical holdings?

If I don’t hold the physical metal like having a gold wafer in a safe deposit box, do I really own it?

Q: Acquisition of HyGear and a $100 million bought deal announced...thoughts?

I see there is a bought deal offering and also a private placement. Does this mean some shares will be sold to the public and some will be bought privately? With the bought deal price of $5.80, do you think the share price drops this much?

Would you add, hold or sell on this news?
