Bitcoin ETFs success
The Israel mutual funds are launching at a time when crypto-based exchange-traded funds (ETFs) have shown remarkable success.
Since their January launch, the US spot Bitcoin ETFs have seen rapid growth since their approval in 2023, amassing billions in investor inflows and cementing their place as leading financial products in the sector.

Considering this, market experts foresee an exciting future for crypto ETFs. Bloomberg ETF analysts Eric Balchunas and James Seyffart predict a significant boom in 2025, driven by potential shifts in SEC leadership.
They anticipate the launch of ETFs linked to major cryptocurrencies such as Litecoin, Solana, and XRP, though some may face regulatory delays.
