Not an exhaustive list:
Pros:
Bitcoin only
Easy DCA service
A focus on bitcoin education
Cons:
KYC AML
Not a great history with custodians*
*They used Prime Trust which went belly up. The CEO jumped ship just before and started Fortress Trust, who is the new custodian Swan switched to. In their defense, I don't think there are a ton of other options put there for *qualified custodians* and they really emphasize self custody anyway.
