#Fidelity, one of the world's largest #brokerages, is releasing a product for retail investors that lets them trade #cryptocurrencies without paying any fees. The platform will make money by factoring a 1% spread into every trade execution price. @CNBC cnbc.com/2022/11/03/fidelity-to-open-commission-free-crypto-trading-to-retail-investors.html
The idea is that #FidelityCrypto will allow investors to buy and sell #bitcoin and #ether. It will also provide custodial services to users.
Ok, so what? It's another example of an established institution, not some fly-by-night that nobody has ever heard of, embracing #bitcoin and #ether. Will it come to much? Probably not....
...But it does send a clear message that #crypto is legit and deserves its place alongside other asset classes. #Fidelity is not alone when it comes to consumer brands embracing #bitcoin, #NFTs, #blockchain and #virtualreality I've tracked 250 organisations & built an A to Z... twitter.com/rickhuckstep/status/1587776579752497152?s=61&t=4uJMIFpnL3ZTDLIMSrNdqw
