Specifically, these funds will be managed by six leading firms, namely Migdal Capital Markets, More, Ayalon, Phoenix Investment, Meitav, and IBI. They will offer different Bitcoin exposure and asset management fees ranging from 0.25% to 1.5%.

Initially, this trading will only be once a day, but the firms are already making plans to make it continuous and other expansions of their services. Their optimism about Bitcoin and the big role of ETFs in this can be understood from their statements.
