   "q": "Does HODL stake?",
   "a": "Bitcoin is a proof of work chain, so there is nothing to stake and no fund holding it can pay a staking yield."

   "a": "VanEck Bitcoin ETF, a spot Bitcoin trust sponsored by VanEck, listed Jan 11, 2024. It holds the coin through a custodian rather than futures on it or shares in companies that own it."
