Full fund details

Objective
Seeks to provide exposure to the price of bitcoin.
Strategy
Provides exposure to the price return of the CME CF Bitcoin Reference Rate while attempting to limit downside risk through a laddered portfolio of four Underlying ETFs. The Fund invests substantially all of its assets in these Underlying ETFs, which seek to provide returns that match the price return of bitcoin, up to a predetermined upside cap, while attempting to provide downside protection against 90% of negative price returns.

Our take

Buffer
Warning

You can build this cheaper yourself

Defined-outcome funds cap your gains (often 8% to 20%) in exchange for cushioning losses by 9% to 30%, priced with options. The fee runs about 0.70% or more, against 0.03% to 0.10% for a plain index fund. For most investors, a simple stock-and-bond mix gives similar protection for far less.
