Total return includes distributions, from end-of-day prices adjusted for splits and distributions, to 22 Oct 2026. Periods of 3 years and longer are annualised and shown only when the fund's history is long enough. Volatility is the standard deviation of daily returns over the last year, annualised. Past performance does not guarantee future results.

Cost: expense ratio

We could not match an expense ratio for GBTC in the SEC prospectus data we read. Funds structured as trusts or notes, and very new funds, are often missing. We show nothing rather than a guess; the issuer's fact sheet has the figure.

Income: distributions

GBTC paid no distributions in the last 12 months. Its return comes from price change only.

Cash paid per current share (restated for share splits), before tax, from EODHD.

GBTC top holdings

We have no holdings for GBTC. Holdings come from Form N-PORT filed with the SEC; grantor trusts, unit investment trusts and notes do not file it, and we do not guess a portfolio.
