- Beleaguered bitcoin miners are finally feeling the spring sunshine after a cold, hard crypto winter. The power-hungry companies that pump new bitcoin into circulation have been thrown a lifeline by the cryptocurrency's rally to above $30,000 this year, which has conspired with falling electricity prices to boost their profitability.

Last week, I discussed some of the different types of crypto and bitcoin ETFs. The distinction between futures-based ETFs and crypto equity ETFs is clear when you look closely at the two. But even when examining them closely, it may be difficult to distinguish between the different types of blockchain/crypto equity ETFs because of similarities with fintech, metaverse, and Web3 concepts. This note serves as a continuation of last week’s note and looks more closely at the differences between blockchain ETFs, metaverse ETFs, Web3 ETFs, and more.
Another week has passed, but crypto funds remain a leading source of return in ETFs right now. According to the latest data from Logicly, both crypto and cannabis-focused ETFs have led the way over the last week. Crypto overall has thawed from its “crypto winter” over the last few months. At the same time, cannabis could be opening a new investing front.
Year-to-date, bitcoin prices are up 72.7%, and crypto ETFs like the Valkyrie Bitcoin Miners ETF (WGMI C+) are also impressively up 128.9%. WMGI is currently the highest performing equity ETF YTD, while the remaining top 10 ETFs are all also crypto-related ETFs. This outperformance has been catching investor interest, but flows haven’t been matching up. WGMI has only $5.7 million net inflows this year, which places it at 647 out of 1,969 equity ETFs — just barely in the top third.

Crypto ETFs led the way in the top-performing ETFs of the last week or so, with strategies focusing on areas as varied as the blockchain, fintechs, Bitcoin, and more all outperformed their competitors. The continued strong performance of crypto ETFs suggests a few interesting factors are at play, whether a continued belief in crypto’s distance from troubles in a beleaguered banking sector or perhaps that there is still a long-term, disruptive innovation case for crypto overall.
Crypto ETFs led the way in performance over the last week, continuing to rebound from the “crypto winter” narrative that set the tone for digital assets last year. Digital assets strategies have started the year well, but the last week’s performance could be attributable in part to the bank crisis that has unfolded over the same time frame.
