Intro to Cryptocurrency Leveraged ETF (coingecko.com)

As a former quant, I urge HN readers to stay away from this, except possibly to short it. A leveraged ETF on a volatile underlying such as crypto is forced to make large trades daily, chasing the market. A leveraged long ETF must buy/sell when the market is up/down on the day. This forced daily trading results in large costs to investors. Research has shown that leveraged ETFs underperform their daily benchmarks.
