Arca Files With the US SEC to List Its Accredited Investor Bitcoin Trust
The finance manager Arca has filed a Form D registration with the U.S. SEC in order to provide investors with a new bitcoin trust offering. The fund will be called the “Arca Accredited Investor Bitcoin Trust” and it will be taking investments of $25k or more, according to the Arca filing. This is half the value of Grayscale’s GBTC minimum investments set at $50k.
Arca has other crypto fund products and the Arca U.S. Treasury Fund. The fund is “a closed-end fund registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940 issuing shares as digital securities that are transferable using blockchain technology,” according to the company. The Arca U.S. Treasury Fund dubbed “arcoin” was launched on July 6, 2020. The Arca Accredited Investor Bitcoin Trust will focus on bitcoin (BTC).
