    The point I was trying to make is that as long as the price keeps going up it can and will be fractionalized. With Crypto ETFs, their market can and will be destabilized.
    AnthonyPadua's point still stands.  Fractionalizing a bitcoin doesn't destabilize it; the price just decreases by the fraction.  Stocks splits have been happening for a 100 years and this doesn't destabilize anything.

    In this case bitcoins price wouldn't change because it can't be split more 1 bitcoin = 1 Bitcoin. However an etfs price could.

    I said that the ETFs cause the destabilization. 
    For what doth it profit a man, if he gain the whole world, and suffer the loss of his own soul? Or what exchange shall a man give for his soul?

  • Btc follows stocks.
    Or the stocks follow bitcoin?
    But is there even a correlation?
    Value is relative.

    Stocks move first. They are larger market, liquidity typically trickles down.
