Largest Crypto ETFs See Mixed Performance Despite Growing Adoption

The adoption of cryptocurrency continues to grow despite being considered high-risk and speculative. Advisors seeking to leverage cryptocurrency as an investment vehicle for their clients can use crypto ETFs, which provide a convenient way to build an allocation to crypto within an existing portfolio.

Crypto ETFs have gained popularity in recent months, with the SEC approving the first U.S.-listed spot Bitcoin ETFs in January 2024 and generic listing standards for spot crypto ETFs in September.
