As the launch of the first spot bitcoin ETF in the U.S. approaches, ETF issuers are disclosing their fund tickers as part of their preparations for what is expected to be fierce marketing competition if these ETFs are approved. VanEck’s ticker for its potential spot bitcoin ETF is “HODL,” a popular cryptocurrency term that stands for “Hold On For Dear Life.” Fidelity’s ticker is “FBTC.”
While catchy or entertaining tickers may appeal to retail investors, experts suggest that factors like fees, liquidity, and brand recognition will play a more significant role in differentiating these funds and driving demand.
