The U.S. SEC has approved a new Bitcoin ETF that targets three times the daily returns of Bitcoin futures, allowing investors to gain amplified exposure to Bitcoin's price movements. This leveraged product, listed on Cboe BZX and sponsored by Volatility Shares LLC, also includes similar 3x ETFs for Ether and commodities like gold and crude oil. The ETF uses futures contracts rather than direct Bitcoin ownership, meaning daily compounding can cause long-term returns to deviate from the 3x target. Trading will be subject to regulatory oversight, including registration requirements and exchange surveillance to protect investors.
The newly approved Bitcoin ETF aims to amplify Bitcoin's daily price moves, contrasting with Bitcoin's steady 0.22% gain on Pluang as of Oct 05, 2026 01:11 WIB. Bitcoin trades at Rp1.522.216.803 on Pluang, nearing its maximum supply of 21 million coins with 96% already circulating. This ETF's focus on futures could attract traders looking for leveraged exposure beyond Bitcoin's current moderate daily change and high market cap of Rp30.660,09 trillion.
