I don’t think they hate Bitcoin at all, I think ETFs actually give Coinbase a huge opportunity to build a strong business by focusing on Bitcoin.

It's a love hate relationship. They love Bitcoin because that's where the majority of their profit comes from. They hate bitcoin because it puts a sledgehammer to the "crypto" narratives they shill. Coinbase would prefer Bitcoin didn't exist.

Horrible fees on just holding the ETF by anyone, then your financial advisor will take a cut too. Pure garbage!
