New Ethereum Futures ETFs Offer Mainstream Exposure, But With Risks

This month, several new Ethereum futures ETFs launched, allowing investors to gain exposure to ETH through brokerage/retirement accounts.

Ethereum is a popular blockchain network used for payments, NFTs, stablecoins, etc. with nearly 250 million users.

Ethereum ETFs remove risks of individual crypto ownership like hacking/exchange collapse.

Current ETFs invest in futures, not spot ETH. Futures prices can diverge from spot prices.

ETF options are still small, expensive compared to direct ETH ownership. Good for risk-tolerant investors bullish on Ethereum.
