The First Trust SkyBridge Crypto Industry and Digital Economy ETF outperforms peers with 115% total return YTD. Click for more on CRPT ETF.


The article from Seeking Alpha discusses the performance and risks associated with the First Trust SkyBridge Crypto Industry and Digital Economy ETF (CRPT). It highlights that CRPT has been overly reliant on Bitcoin for its returns, with Bitcoin's price movements significantly influencing the ETF's performance. Despite a year-to-date increase of 100%, the ETF's heavy exposure to Bitcoin, which constitutes about 40% of its holdings, has led to concerns about its diversification. The article points out that while Bitcoin's price surge has benefited the ETF, this concentration risk could be detrimental if Bitcoin's value declines. Additionally, the ETF includes other crypto-related stocks and funds, but their performance has been less impactful compared to Bitcoin. The author suggests that while CRPT offers exposure to the crypto economy, its reliance on Bitcoin's volatility might not be suitable for all investors, especially those looking for a more balanced or diversified investment in the digital economy.
