Franklin Templeton is preparing to launch two new ETFs on Nasdaq that invest primarily in U.S. stocks while reinvesting dividends into Bitcoin exposure. The ETFs target a 5% Bitcoin allocation, with quarterly rebalancing and a 20% maximum limit on Bitcoin holdings. One ETF focuses on large-cap stocks with a 0.09% fee, and the other on innovation-focused stocks with a 0.19% fee. These funds offer a novel way for traditional equity investors to gain cryptocurrency exposure without directly holding Bitcoin. The exact launch date is not yet confirmed, but the funds are registered and awaiting trading commencement.
