Asset managers are working quickly to release new products for the emerging digital asset class, just 48 hours after US authorities allowed Ether ETFs to track the second-largest cryptocurrency in the world.
Six new funds that target both long and short positions in Bitcoin and Ether have been filed for by ProShares. In the meanwhile, Hashdex is investigating the possibility of combining the two cryptocurrencies into one investment vehicle. Despite anticipated difficulties in its debut, VanEck is also getting ready to launch an ETF for Solana.
The ETF market is rapidly producing new and complex crypto products, driven by strong demand. Bitcoin funds are leading in inflows this year, surpassing some major tech funds, despite potential concerns from the US Securities and Exchange Commission.
Roxanna Islam of VettaFi predicts that ETF issuers will get creative with crypto filings, driven by growing interest in spot-crypto ETFs. While demand for specific ETFs isn’t guaranteed, new crypto strategies will likely emerge to capitalize on investor interest.
New fund launches have increased significantly in the $9.4 trillion US ETF market. Over 330 new funds have begun trading so far this year, up from over 500 during the entire previous year.
Nevertheless, funds may close their doors in the crowded market just as rapidly as they open up new ones. According to Bloomberg statistics, over 100 ETFs have closed in 2024, which is comparable to the number that closed at this time last year.
The strong debut of Bitcoin and Ether ETFs surprised analysts, with eight of nine Ether ETFs attracting significant inflows, including over $200 million each for BlackRock and Bitwise. However, both Ether and its ETFs experienced declines on Thursday, possibly due to a “sell-the-news” reaction.
Notably, Bitcoin ETFs have seen $17.5 billion in net inflows year-to-date, reflecting strong market interest. The successful launch of Ether ETFs, which has seen substantial investments from firms like BlackRock and Bitwise, suggests a shift in the regulatory environment, potentially encouraging more innovative financial products.
The launch of these exchange-traded funds, which took years to develop, indicates a loosening of regulations in the US about digital assets, which may encourage asset managers to take increasingly risky positions.&nbsp;
