What Is an Exchange Traded Fund (ETF) Related to Bitcoin Futures?

A Bitcoin futures ETF is a fund that trades on traditional stock exchanges and holds Bitcoin futures contracts, rather than holding actual Bitcoin. This allows investors to gain exposure to Bitcoin price movements through a regulated vehicle without directly buying or storing the cryptocurrency.

These ETFs are cash-settled and subject to futures market rules.
