To whom it may concern, 


I respectfully request that you approve the request of Grayscale to convert GBTC to an ETF. The GBTC vehicle holds nearly 3.5% of the liquid supply of Bitcoin according to Bloomberg.  That vehicle should offer physical settlement in BTC.  Bitcoin ETFs already exist in countries such as Canada.  A futures ETF exists within the US that was approved.  Investors such as myself, want exposure to actual Bitcoin, not derivatives.  A spot ETF should exist alongside the futures ETF. 


Sincerely, 


Joshua Burman
