Calamos Laddered Bitcoin Structured Alt Protection ETF

CBOL

Market cap $2.39M

In October, Calamos Investments released three Laddered Protected Bitcoin ETFs, each providing laddered exposure to three different underlying portfolios of Calamos Protected Bitcoin ETFs. With three different options on the table, advisors and investors may wonder which one can potentially best meet their needs.

It certainly seems like volatility is going to stay on the menu for bitcoin for at least a little while longer. The price of the cryptocurrency has continued to drop to new lows in November, passing below the $90 thousand threshold well into the mid-$80 thousand mark.

What exactly can a laddered approach to bitcoin exposure bring to an advisor or investor's portfolio? The best way to answer that question is to examine its inherent advantages over traditional spot bitcoin ETFs.

On Tuesday, October 14, Calamos Investments expanded its lineup of alternative bitcoin strategies with the launch of three new funds, all now trading on the Cboe BZX Exchange. These are the first Calamos Laddered Bitcoin Structured Alt Protection ETFs, designed to provide laddered bitcoin exposure through investments in a mix of Calamos Protected Bitcoin ETFs.
