The ETF is exactly "what its name suggests" as it tracks the combined portfolio of 80% Bitcoin (BTC) and 20% Carbon Credits Futures. In this case, Carbon Credits are linked to emission allowances approved by the relevant commissions of EU and California, U.S.
Geraci noted that the preliminary approval form 19b-4 is already approved for this ETF. As such, he will not be surprised when the "ESG version" of the spot Bitcoin ETF goes live.
