Calamos Files for Laddered Bitcoin ETF with 20% Loss Protection
Calamos Investments, managing over $40 billion in assets, has submitted a filing for a ‘laddered’ Bitcoin ETF designed to protect investors from losses exceeding 20%. The ETF will invest in options contracts linked to five established Bitcoin ETFs, including BlackRock’s iShares Bitcoin Trust and Grayscale’s Bitcoin Mini Trust. This move reflects growing demand for crypto exposure with risk mitigation, as Bitcoin’s volatility remains significantly higher than traditional equity indexes. Calamos previously launched three ‘protected’ Bitcoin ETFs in January, signaling a strategic focus on safer crypto investment products.

Bitcoin’s price dropped to nearly $64,000 as US spot Bitcoin ETFs experienced significant outflows, with Grayscale Bitcoin Trust and Fidelity Wise Origin Bitcoin Fund being the most affected. The selling pressure may be attributed to the German government’s transfer of approximately $195 million in Bitcoin to exchanges since June 19, alongside hedge funds reducing their market exposure to Bitcoin. Additionally, macroeconomic factors, including the Federal Reserve’s stance on interest rates, could further impact the market.
