We have all heard about the Winklevoss' plans to start an ETF but do you know about any other investment companies/capital management companies that have invested in or plan to invest in bitcoins?

Buying coins by yourself is the best investment options since you don't need to rely on a third party to handle the coins for you, thus no risk of default

I do own a couple of coins myself. I was asking to know if there was any movement in this direction since it could have huge implications for the coming price moves in bitcoins as well as its respectability.
