IBIT has a total expense ratio (TER) of 0.25%, which means you pay $25 per year for every $10,000 invested.
IBIT is an accumulating ETF — dividends are automatically reinvested into the fund rather than paid out, which can be more tax-efficient in many jurisdictions.
IBIT is a US-domiciled ETF (not UCITS). Non-US investors should consider the US estate tax implications (40% on US assets above $60,000) and the 30% dividend withholding tax (reduced by treaty in some countries).
IBIT uses full physical replication, meaning it holds all (or nearly all) securities in the CME CF Bitcoin Reference Rate – New York Variant index directly.
