correct me if im wrong but im pretty sure there’s no guarantee how many sats a share in these etfs are worth
on a dollar value, they’ll do fine but on a per sat basis investing into an etf in a bull day dilutes the per share sats value of everyone else in the fund
the reverse happens on bear days, afaict. here’s the lil scenario i walked through to convince myself of this dynamic.
100 shares, 100k sats. current price is $2/sat. $200k total NAV
ea share worth 1k sats
lets say the price moves up, to
$4/sat, $400k NAV, 100k sats
i buy 10 shares, $40k in, buys 10k sats
110 shares, $440k/110k sats
1k sats/share
market moves: day price is $5. $40k buys 8k sats
110 shares, 108k sats
989sats/share
market moves: day price is $2. $40k buys 20k sats
110 shares, 120k sats
1.09k sats/share
the big question is: is the price per share sold updated for the sats they acquire? or do they just accept money at price X, buy as many sats as they can at day-end and that’s what gets added to the fund?
