Investment Q&A

Not investment advice or solicitation to buy/sell securities. Do your own due diligence and/or consult an advisor.

Q: Dear 5i team.

Now that Bitcoin seems to be forming a base in the 20k usd range, can you update your thoughts on:
1) The risks associated with owning crypto?
2) The best way(s) to own them? (Ie: in USD and CAD)

Any other commentary is welcome.

Thank you for your ongoing help in these matters.

Q: Are there any bitcoin ETFs eligible for purchase in a Canadian RSP? If so, please provide ticker symbols of applicable ETFs available to a Canadian investor, and which one(s) you might recommend to someone who desires a small bitcoin exposure (1% portfolio weighting). (Both US$ and CA$ RSP accounts are available.)

Q: The Purpose Bitcoin ETFs have started to trade today. I have read some of the available information on these ETFs but would appreciate your "clear language" interpretation.
Do you expect that the price of these ETFs will essentially match the price of Bitcoin and move up and down with Bitcoin in a relatively real-time manner? Or will it move with market demand?
Can you explain the differences between these two funds? Is it simply that one trades in USD and the other in CAD?

Thanks as always for your clarity.
