Just recently I've decided to invest in Bitcoin and have chosen to buy shares in Fidelity's FBTC Exchange-Traded-Fund.

My choice was primarily between Fidelity's FBTC and Blackrock's IBIT. I chose FBTC because I like and trust Fidelity's service and I like their Trading Dashboard features.

Is Buying Shares of a BTC ETF a good way for non-tech new (late-to the game) investors to invest in BTC?   
This is fine if you have just started. Soon, you will also want to hold that actual Bitcoin which isn't far from how you've purchased that FBTC. All you need to have is a wallet and also an exchange account. It might be complicated at the beginning when you're not yet aware of how to do it. But eventually, you'll get used to it and you'll have the idea that it's not that bad to own the actual BTC than the shares. Anyway, as long as you're investing what you can afford to lose, this is just the start and you'll get to know more about Bitcoin.
