该投资工具将于明天 6 月 21 日在纽约证券交易所 (NYSE) 上市，并将反向追踪标准普尔芝加哥商品交易所 (CME) BTC 期货指数中的 BTC 价格。换句话说，如果 BTC 的价格趋势向下，投资者将获利。
由于排名第一的加密货币最近交易价格低于 2017 年的历史高点 20,000 美元，并且鉴于当前的宏观经济环境，市场参与者预计会进一步下跌。新的 ProShares ETF 将为这些投资者提供从看跌趋势中获利的机会。
从这个意义上说，新闻稿称，BITI 旨在解决“获得比特币空头风险的挑战”。这家投资公司声称，在美国，这一过程“对许多投资者来说既繁重又昂贵”。
特别是，该国的投资者在尝试做空比特币期货挂钩产品时可能会面临障碍。美国的监管环境使其比世界其他地区更难，但 ProShares 试图提供解决方案。
某些资产的长期持有者通常使用空头头寸来对冲他们的多头头寸以防止未来的提款。这就是为什么这种新的投资工具可以为投资者提供保护其持股的解决方案。该公司首席执行官迈克尔萨皮尔说：
BITI 为相信比特币价格将下跌的投资者提供了潜在获利或对冲其加密货币持有量的机会。 BITI 使投资者能够通过在传统经纪账户中购买 ETF 来方便地获得比特币的空头头寸。
新的 BTC 空头 ETF 将不会进行实物结算，并且将是非多元化的。投资者只能在期货市场上接触 BTC 的价格。正如该公司所澄清的那样，有时 BTC 的现货价格与其未来价格可能不同。
这可能会给投资者带来一些障碍。同样，ETF 将尝试为其基于 BTC 的策略达到 1 倍的每日目标。 ProShares 警告说，这可能会为投资者创造复合收益，但也可能导致他们遭受重大损失。

该投资公司还将推出 BTC 空头共同基金。这种名为 Short Bitcoin Strategy ProFund 的投资工具将于明天推出，股票代码为 BITIX。萨皮尔得出结论：
随着 BITI 和 BITIX 的加入，ProShares 和 ProFunds 将成为美国唯一一家提供基金的基金家族，这些基金允许投资者表达他们对比特币方向的看法——无论他们认为价格会上涨还是下跌。
