ETF analyst Eric Balchunas predicts that Charles Schwab's planned cryptocurrency trading service will face significant challenges in competing with existing ETF products, U.Today reported. The major U.S. financial firm recently announced its intention to launch the service on its trading platform. Balchunas explained that while Schwab's offering would be a better choice for beginners than crypto exchanges due to its fee structure, it falls short when compared to ETFs. He noted that Schwab's fee is 0.75%, whereas ETF fees can be as low as 0.02%. However, he added that directly owning coins offers a significant long-term advantage, as there are no annual management fees. This could offset the higher initial trading costs for those planning to hold Bitcoin for extended periods. Balchunas suggested a rule of thumb: direct purchases are preferable for those intending to hold for more than five years, while ETFs are the best option for shorter-term investments.

Cardano founder Charles Hoskinson has argued that BIP-361, a proposal to defend Bitcoin against quantum computing, is being misclassified as a soft fork. He claimed that if implemented, the proposal would permanently freeze approximately 1.7 million BTC created before 2013, including the 1 million BTC held by founder Satoshi Nakamoto. According to CoinDesk, Hoskinson explained that these 1.7 million early-mined coins would be impossible to migrate because their owners lack the means of proof, as they were mined before the introduction of seed phrases. He accused Bitcoin developers of deceptively labeling BIP-361 as a soft fork to push through what he described as an unconscionable hard fork.
