While crypto ETFs battle it out on pricing, choosing based purely on low fees might miss the bigger picture. True investment decisions should weigh multiple factors—liquidity depth, trading volumes, management track record, and platform reliability matter just as much. The race to undercut competitors on basis points doesn't automatically mean the cheapest option deserves your capital. Smart investors look beyond the headline rate and evaluate the full value proposition.

lmao people still falling for the fee arbitrage trap. liquidity depth is literally where the real MEV lives, not in some shaved bps.

Low-fee traps, you really need to look at liquidity and the management team, you can't just chase after cheap prices.

The more intense the fee war, the less I dare to buy cheap goods directly. Deep liquidity is truly the real deal.

ngl this is the classic mistake i made with three different ETFs last year. cheapest fees got me the worst execution, learned that the hard way when liquidity dried up mid-trade

Honestly, most people who just rush in because of low fees are likely to suffer losses. Liquidity and trading volume are the real bottlenecks. Too many beginners only focus on the points...
