The Growing Appeal of Cryptocurrency ETFs

The following are some of the reasons why Bitcoin ETFs have been successful; first the acceptance of crypto currencies and secondly, the ease of accessing this flight through ETFs. It gives institutional and retail investors an easily accessible, regulated way to access Bitcoin exposure without actually owning the asset. This ease of access has undoubtedly driven the fast build-up in Bitcoin ETFs’ funds.

The sharp increase in flows into Bitcoin ETFs may mean there is a new preference in how investors access more exotic forms of investment. Thus, although gold has long been viewed as an inflation hedge, or a safe-haven asset, globally, more and more investors turn to Bitcoin as one option, which is especially true for generations Y and Z, and those familiar with digital forms of assets. Therefore based on the popularity of Bitcoin ETFs it will be significant to observe whether this kind of change will bring alterations to investment management in the future.
