Franklin Templeton plans ETFs that hold U.S. stocks and reinvest dividends into Bitcoin, targeting a 5% BTC allocation, as cited to NovaDius Wealth President Nate Geraci.
Geraci called it smart product design and an easy way for everyday investors to gain BTC exposure, in posts shared Oct. 26 by TheBlock and Cointelegraph.
Coin Bureau describes the mechanic as using dividend cash to buy BTC-linked products instead of paying dividends out.
That framing presents it as another way to get Bitcoin exposure without buying BTC directly, alongside spot, futures, treasury, miner, income and crypto-company routes.
Bitcoin itself was quoted around $80,292 on Binance spot at the time checked, roughly flat on the day.
