Portfolio to Adjust to Market Dynamics

The 21Shares-Flow is made up of 25 different cryptocurrencies, such as Bitcoin (BTC) and Ethereum (ETH). Its composition is adjusted every month based on market conditions. A straightforward approach is employed to allocate the proportions of these assets within the fund.

In simpler terms, this means calculating the total value of each asset at the end of every month and then dividing that amount by the overall market transactions during that period. This method, known as rebalancing, ensures that retail investors receive proportional allocations based on current market trends. If there are increased investments in Bitcoin or Ethereum Exchange-Traded Products (ETPs), for instance, their shares within the portfolio will be adjusted accordingly.

eToro Eyes New Inflows 

Hany Rashwan, the CEO of 21Shares, mentioned that the two companies will utilize their specialized knowledge to enhance crypto investments through their Smart Portfolio with more sophisticated offerings.

The bitcoin price has hit a new record high of over $73,000 this year, driven in part by increasing institutional investment. Bitcoin ETFs and other similar financial products have seen significant inflows, fueling the surge in value.

Dani Brinker, the Head of Investment Portfolio at eToro, expressed optimism about the collaboration’s ability to enhance crypto investment. “With this portfolio, investors can seize the growth possibilities of cryptocurrencies in a systematic and data-driven way. We are thrilled to introduce 21Shares’ expert knowledge to our clientele.
