Launch of Various Cryptocurrency-Oriented ETFs

The launch of spot Bitcoin ETFs has become the most successful debut of an ETF in history. Attracting over $108 billion in assets under management (AUM) in the first year, these ETFs have demonstrated unprecedented demand from both retail and institutional investors.

Following the success of Bitcoin, Ethereum ETFs debuted, offering investors access to the second-largest cryptocurrency by market capitalization. Staking is expected to be integrated into Ethereum ETFs for the first time in 2025. This feature will allow investors to earn on staking, further enhancing the attractiveness and utility of these funds.

ETFs for other leading crypto protocols, such as Solana, may also emerge soon. Additionally, the introduction of weighted crypto index ETFs is anticipated, aimed at providing diversified exposure to the broader crypto market.
