Financial journalist opinion

DAPP: Lagging Bitcoin And Ether Lately, Remaining Cautious

I maintain a hold rating on DAPP due to resistance at key technical levels and negative seasonal trends despite improved valuation. DAPP has outperformed the S&P 500 since February and offers exposure to digital asset transformation but remains highly volatile and concentrated. Liquidity concerns persist with DAPP, and investors should use limit orders; the fund's high yield is not guaranteed given inconsistent distributions.

DAPP: Digest High Volatility Systematically For High Potential

DAPP provides concentrated exposure to miners, exchanges, and infrastructure; potential for explosive long‑term growth but extreme volatility with frequent ±50% swings. I think it can outperform in risk‑on markets and offer occasional low correlation to equities; suitable for small (5‑10%) growth portfolio allocation. It tracks the MVIS Global Digital Assets Equity Index with accelerated inclusion of qualifying companies; ~28% non‑US exposure; balanced holdings caps.

DAPP: An ETF That Needs To Evolve

The VanEck Digital Transformation ETF has significantly underperformed both Bitcoin and the S&P 500 since its inception in 2021. DAPP's inflexible passive strategy and material exposure to crypto miners limit its appeal versus actively managed competitors like BLOK that are better able to evolve with an immature industry. The fund's Index lacks any qualitative screening, and improvements in portfolio construction are urgently needed.

DAPP: Bitcoin Wobbles Under $100,000, Key Crypto Miner Earnings On Tap

Bitcoin has been rangebound between $90,000-$109,000, affecting crypto-related stocks, while gold has outperformed year-to-date. I maintain a hold rating on the VanEck Digital Transformation ETF due to mixed valuation and technical trends, despite its substantial growth. DAPP's portfolio has diversified with increased large-cap exposure and a high long-term EPS growth rate, but its elevated P/E ratio poses risks.
