SEC approves listing rules for VS Trust's 3x Bitcoin and Ether futures ETFs

  • —SEC approved listing rules for 3x Bitcoin (BITH) and 3x Ether (ETHK) futures ETFs from VS Trust
  • —Products are structured as commodity-based trust ETPs, without 1940 Act investor protections
  • —Each targets 3x the daily return of a futures portfolio and rebalances daily
  • —SEC warned that returns can deviate sharply from the stated multiple over longer periods
Why it matters: The move paves the way for the first US-listed 3x crypto futures ETPs, expanding leveraged exposure for retail investors.
