Cryptocurrency ETFs have been popping up recently in the stock market and offer a promising avenue to invest, with potentially high ROIs. For all of you who don’t know what an ETF is, a cryptocurrency ETF (exchange-traded fund) is a collection of securities—such as cryptocurrency stocks—that tracks an underlying index. Here is a comprehensive list of the top 5 cryptocurrency ETFs to invest in.

1. Grayscale Bitcoin Investment Trust (GBTC)

Grayscale Bitcoin Investment Trust was one of the first to use the fund structure for giving investors exposure to bitcoin, but just to be clear, Grayscale Bitcoin Investment Trust is not designed to be an ETF. According to Grayscale, GBTC allows investors to gain exposure to the movement of the price of bitcoin via a traditional investment vehicle, all without facing any sort of challenges of buying, storing and keeping the bitcoins safe.

One of the major drawbacks of using GBTC is paying for the high premiums in addition to the annual fee and also the risk factors that come along with the volatility of the cryptocurrency market. Investors are allowed to access the shares through the market via GBTC. Based on the recent prediction, bitcoin’s price could drop to $6,000 based on the GBTC premium. The expense ratio of GBTC is 2% per year. 


2. Grayscale Digital Large Cap Fund

Introduced in February 2018, Digital Large Cap Fund largely attracts investors seeking exposure in multiple digital currencies. Grayscale Digitial Large Cap Fund allows investors to get exposure to the movement of the price of a mix of various large-cap digital assets via a traditional investment vehicle without facing any challenges of buying, storing and safekeeping digital assets. 

Grayscale Digital Large Cap Fund gives 64% of its weight to Bitcoin. Other components are Ethereum, Cardano, Solana, Litecoin, Chainlink, and other altcoins. The digital asset holdings per share at close as of 24/03/2022 is $28.3.

  • Ethereum (ETH)                  28%
  • Cardano (ADA)                  3%
  • Solana (SOL)                  2.4%

3. Amplify Transformational Data Sharing ETF (BLOK)

The Transformational Data Sharing ETF is not a devoted bitcoin ETF. In fact, it doesn’t hold any bitcoin. Rather, the digital ledger where all the bitcoin transaction taking place are stored is its playfield. This actively managed fund currently holds 54 stocks and also it is a global fund with over 56% of its total weight assigned to companies that are from outside of North America. 

Top 5 Holdings:

  • SILVERGATE CAP CORP 5.04%
  • GALAXY DIGITAL HOLDINGS LTD 5.04%
  • NVIDIA CORPORATION 4.75%
  • SBI HOLDINGS INC 4.30%
  • COINBASE GLOBAL INC 4.11%

There is a long term case for BLOK because of the large number of industries that are adopting and planning to adopt blockchain technologies. It is also expected to be a keystone in the Internet of Things and connected devices theme.
