BlackRock, Ark lower fee for planned spot bitcoin ETFs

:BlackRock and Ark Investments said on Wednesday they were lowering the fees on their planned spot bitcoin exchange traded funds.

BlackRock would charge 0.25 per cent, compared with the 0.30 per cent fee set earlier. Ark Investments and 21Shares dropped their fee to 0.21 per cent from 0.25 per cent earlier.
