I've been keeping my eye on GBTC, to put into my mine and my wife's IRAs. The premium is too fucking high still. The premium+maintenance fees need to be significantly less than the ~20% capital gains tax that I'd have to pay from selling/using "physical" bitcoin.
With the impending Bakkt launch, GBTC might look like trash in a couple months. I haven't been able to find much information on using Bakkt in IRAs or 401Ks though.
GBTC has a yearly fee of 2%, so you would lose that 20% in 10 years holding it in your IRA. GBTC was a truly great buy in the fall of 2015 (and a great sell in December of 2017). I was actually planning to buy some, but did not since I was expecting Winkelvoss ETFcoming "any minute now". Oh, well.

Yeah I eventually gave up and reopened short. Doesn't look like Badger wants to come out of his nice cosy burrow today.
Good call after all. Maybe but btc will not notify in advance when it finally takes off. You know, habits.

Why not open an account for her and talk to each other on here? We can give you marital guidance plus it's a fun memorial for your kids.

We're all here for both of them. What this thread needs more than anything is its very own baby.

My Christmas wishes re bitcoin in 2019:
1. No ETF. Why? Because institutions are losers who don't care in the slightest about bitcoin as an idea. Same for retirees. Watch them scramble to alternative assets once their asses would be on the line due to the downturn.
2. No bakkt. Why? Because bakkt will manifest custodial holding, hypothecation, rehypothetication, same as gold. Garbage! We don't need it. We do not need custodial solution when blockchain is the most secure custodian EVER.
3. No bitmain. I hope that they piss off and/or go bankrupt.
4. Yes 10X, maybe even 100X growth of Lightning.
5. Yes to more people participating in bitcoin.
6. Yes to more self-organization of the bitcoin crowd. We need it to survive potential fiat calamities. Do I want gold? Nope.
