Eliminates the Need to Access Bitcoin through Unregulated Exchanges or Wallets
ProFunds, a premier provider of a diverse lineup of mutual funds, announced the launch of the Bitcoin Strategy ProFund (BTCFX).
“Cryptocurrency has become a significant asset class, and our new Bitcoin Strategy ProFund provides investors access to a bitcoin strategy through a mutual fund investment”
The new Bitcoin Strategy ProFund is the first publicly available U.S. mutual fund or ETF designed to provide investment results, before fees and expenses, that generally correspond to the performance of bitcoin.
This innovative new ProFund eliminates the need for investors to hold their bitcoin through exchanges or wallets and offers investors a convenient way to incorporate this digital asset into their portfolios.
