The DDA Bitcoin Macro ETP is fully collateralized by a diversified basket of cryptocurrencies from the Compass FT DDA Bitcoin Macro Allocation Index and is held securely by “cold storage” by a regulated trustee.
This ETP offers systematic and adaptive exposure to Bitcoin (BTC) and USDC, using key macroeconomic factors to optimize Bitcoin exposure and manage long-term risks.
The ETP adjusts its exposure to Bitcoin based on macroeconomic factors and trades under the ticker “BMAC” with an overall expense ratio of 2%.
Marc des Ligneris, head of quantitative strategies at the DDA, said:
We want to offer a range of smart beta strategies allowing them to gain exposure to cryptocurrencies while managing their risk more effectively over the long term. The first of these, launched by DDA, reduces its exposure when the biggest macroeconomic factors weigh negatively on the price of Bitcoin”
Peter Schiff, a well-known critic of Bitcoin and prominent economist, has once again targeted the leading cryptocurrency.
gFidelity Investments’ Jurrien Timmer, the director of global macro, has weighed in on the ongoing debate about Bitcoin’s potential to surpass gold in market value. While he acknowledges that Bitcoin could eventually rival gold, he doesn’t foresee this happening anytime soon.
Arthur Hayes anticipates Bitcoin reaching an eye-catching price point before the market cycle peaks, suggesting a significant rally fueled by monetary expansion.
Ethereum’s blockchain underwent a significant shift on September 15, 2022, moving from a proof-of-work (PoW) security model to proof-of-stake (PoS).
