The rise of non-fungible tokens continues as a popular theme in 2021 with NFTs rising in value and stocks increasing their exposure to NFTs through token launches, marketplaces and partnerships with leading NFT projects.
The first NFT ETF is launching with The Digital Revolution (NYSE:NFTZ) from Defiance ETFs. Here are the details.
What Happened: Defiance is launching the first NFT ETF as a bet on the growth of the new asset type.
“NFTs could be bigger than the internet,” said Defiance ETFs co-founder and Chief Investment Officer Sylvia Jablonski. “In October, all-time NFT trading volume surpassed $15 billion.”
The new ETF offers exposure to NFTs, blockchain and cryptocurrency ecosystems and NFT marketplaces.
NFTs could change the economic model for creators, athletes and artists, according to Defiance ETF’s press release.
The ETF will track the BITA NFT and Blockchain Select Index. The index will follow rules and rebalance on a quarterly basis. Stocks included in the ETF must have exposure to NFTs, cryptocurrency mining, cryptocurrency banking or announced publicly plans to enter the NFT space.
