Traditional financial institutions are finding new ways to offer investors access to digital assets via exchange-traded funds (ETFs). On June 27, Henry Jim, an ETF Analyst with Bloomberg Intelligence, reported on three ETF products that would provide investors access to Bitcoin, Gold, Ethereum, and MicroStrategy.
Tidal Investments and Quantify Chaos Advisors have jointly filed a prospectus for a new ETF offering indirect exposure to Bitcoin and Gold.
According to the filing, this ETF will leverage investments to expose investors to both assets without directly purchasing them. It will invest in Bitcoin futures, gold futures, cash, reverse purchase agreements, and other Bitcoin or Gold-related ETFs.
The ETF aims to blend Bitcoin and Gold strategies to offer complementary benefits despite the lack of correlation between these assets. It seeks to minimize short-term market fluctuations and provide stable investment opportunities.
In other Bitcoin-related ETF news, T-Rex Group, a prominent ETF issuer, has applied to the SEC for funds that will offer investors 2X Long and inverted leveraged positions to MicroStrategy.
Bloomberg’s senior ETF analyst Eric Balchunas noted that if the funds were approved, they would expose investors to about 20 times the typical volatility of the S&P 500.
MicroStrategy is the largest corporate holder of Bitcoin, amassing 214,400 BTC, equivalent to more than 1% of the top crypto asset’s total supply. The company’s executive chairman, Michael Saylor, is a vocal BTC advocate who has maintained that the firm will continue with its BTC acquisition.
YieldMax also filed for an ETF that holds spot Ethereum ETFs and sells calls for income. This offers investors indirect exposure to ETH, the second-largest digital asset by market cap.
