There are likely to several choices when you search for a Bitcoin ETF. Grayscale, VanEck, and Morgan Creek Capital Management all have a lot of popularity. Which is the best option for your portfolio? Continue reading to learn more. Here's how I can help you choose the best Bitcoin ETF. We'll be looking at the performance and expense ratios of these three companies.
VanEck
Cboe BZX Exchange presented a March proposal for the VanEck Bitcoin ETF to be listed. This would allow it to track the spot prices of Bitcoin in America. Despite the SEC's recent disapproval of Bitcoin ETFs, Canadian regulators have approved a few. American institutional investors are now able spot Bitcoin ETFs with these approvals. However, there are some positive news.
First, the SEC disapproved the VanEck Bitcoin ETF proposal just two days before its approval. Instead of investing in bitcoin underlying, the VanEck Bitcoin Exchange Tradeable Fund (ETF) would be a commodity. This is similar to gold, silver, platinum and other commodities that can be traded on an exchange. Moreover, the VanEck bitcoin ETF would be standardized and cheaper than any other commodity. Platinum, palladium, and precious metals are some of the other commodities that can be listed as spot ETFs.
The XBTF, meanwhile is an exchange traded fund (ETF), that invests bitcoin futures. Its low net expenses ratio may allow for a better tax experience, which could be a benefit to long-term investment. Investors should be aware that the XBTF currently is the third Bitcoin ETF to go live in the U.S. market in less than a month. In October, ProShares Bitcoin Strategy Fund launched and Valkyrie Investments Bitcoin Strategy Fund launched. Both funds are cash settled futures. These are financial derivative contracts in which investors agree to transact a certain asset at a fixed cost.
Grayscale
SEC expressed concern about the proposed spot Bitcoin ETF created by the Bitcoin investment trust, the "Grayscale Bitcoin Trust". The agency asked the public for written comments about the prospect of the fund and encouraged anyone interested to share data, views and arguments to support their concerns. The public has 21 calendar days to respond to the proposal. As bitcoin's market continues to grow in value, the stakes are high.
The ETF will allow the company to access additional capital. Investors will be able to make a significant profit with the ETF than they would without institutional investors. Grayscale hopes that the fund can provide investors with a 17% yield over a short period of time, as long as the price of bitcoin rises. The company envisions creating a bitcoin ETF in the same way as the SPDR Gold shares GLD, -1.63%, which is settled using physical gold.
Investors should be aware of the risks associated to this investment. Grayscale might not be right for everyone due to its high level of risk. It is possible to lose all or part of your investment. Moreover, investors should keep in mind that the price of the shares of the Products reflects the price of the digital asset held by the fund, per share, plus expenses and liabilities incurred by the fund. It is therefore important to read carefully the prospectus before you invest in any product.
Morgan Creek Capital Management
A Maryland-based investment management firm has submitted an application for a Bitcoin futures ETF. It is the AdvisorShares Managed Bitcoin Equity Trust and will invest in Bitcoin futures. The fund will not directly invest in Bitcoin but will instead invest in cash equivalent investments or bonds. The fund's sub-advisor is Morgan Creek Capital Management. The firm makes investment decisions based on data and internal research.
Mark Yusko from Morgan Creek sees the potential of bitcoin's long-term growth despite its high volatility. CNBC's Mark Yusko spoke to CNBC about his company's recent partnership and Exos Financial, an institutional finance platform created by Brady Dougan, the former CEO of Credit Suisse. Exos provides wealth management and investment banking services. Combining Morgan Creek's deep insight into the digital asset market, the end result is an ETF that tracks performance of the Morgan Creek Bitwise Digital Asset Index.
The index is a combination the ten largest digital assets ranked by market capital. It is stored cold. Morgan Creek Capital has committed to an annual audit, and Pompliano serves on the Index Policy Committee. Before investing, investors must consider the potential risks. Morgan Creek Bitwise ETF is an attractive option for diversifying portfolios. A cryptocurrency index fund isn't right for everyone. However, the risks are minimal.
