I got access to @Fidelity Crypto today. I'm looking forward to them adding support for deposits and withdrawals. I probably won't use the service before then.

Is there any indication they plan to allow withdrawals? Or is this gonma be like a venmo-style 'buy bitcoin' program?

It's probably just them holding a ton of GBTC or BITO, meaning they don't have any actual bitcoin to withdraw.

Then this 'development' means nothing, unfortunately.
