According to a CoinGecko report dated Nov. 3, only 8 countries around the world offer spot Bitcoin ETFs.
Of these countries, Canada is ranked in the top spot for having seven spot Bitcoin ETFs worth a total of $2 billion in total assets.

After Canada comes Germany, with one incorporated spot Bitcoin ETF and $802.52 million in total assets, alongside other notable mentions including Brazil with $295.74 million and Liechtenstein at $218.18 million.
