The advantages of Crypto ETFs & Crypto ETNs
By investing in crypto ETFs or crypto ETNs, you can track the price movement of Bitcoin or Ethereum and other leading cryptocurrencies, without the need for a crypto wallet.
Simple
You can trade ETFs and ETNs in exactly the same way as stocks, and you won’t need to open a crypto exchange account.
Secure
The underlying coins are owned by the ETF or ETN providers, which use a Tier 1 custodian to hold the cryptocurrency.
Lower risk
Crypto markets can be extremely volatile, but as ETFs and ETNs aren’t traded on leverage, your losses are never amplified.
Smaller trades
One share of a bitcoin ETN offers exposure to 1/20th of a bitcoin; one share of an ethereum ETN is equivalent to 1/10th of an ether.
