3     Intra-day Market Price refers to the market price of ChinaAMC Bitcoin ETF on the date and at the time specified above, quoted from the Stock Exchange of Hong Kong Limited (the “SEHK”).

4   The Intra-day Estimated NAV per Unit is updated during SEHK trading hours and is for reference only. The Intra-day Estimated NAV per Unit in RMD and HKD is calculated using the Intra-day Estimated NAV per Unit in USD multiplied by the real time exchange rate provided by ICE DATA. Since the Intra-day Estimated NAV per Unit in USD will not be updated when the underlying share market is closed, the change in the Intra-day Estimated NAV per unit in RMB or HKD (if any) during such period is solely due to the change in the foreign exchange rate.

5  The last NAV per Share in RMB and HKD is calculated using the official last NAV per Share in USD multiplied by an assumed foreign exchange rate using the USD exchange rate quoted by Bloomberg at 4:00 p.m. (Hong Kong time) as of the same Dealing Day. The last NAV per Unit will be updated on days when the SEHK is open for trading. Changes of the official last NAV per Unit in USD and last change of the NAV per Unit in RMB and HKD indicate the change of the NAV per Unit since previous Dealing Day^. Please refer to the Prospectus for more information on the determination of NAV.

FAQs

A cryptocurrency is a digital or virtual currency based on cryptographic principles. It uses encryption technology to secure transactions, generate new coins, and verify fund transfers. A key characteristic of cryptocurrencies is their decentralization, meaning they are not controlled by any central agency or government.

 

Cryptocurrencies operate on a blockchain, a distributed public ledger which serves as a record of all transactions updated and maintained by currency holders. Units of cryptocurrency are created through a process known as mining, which involves using computer power to solve complex mathematical problems that result in the production of coins.

 

(1) Blockchain technology

It is a decentralized public ledger or a list of cryptocurrency transactions. Completed blocks, consisting of the most recent transactions, are recorded and added to the blockchain in a chronological and verifiable manner. All records are permanent and open to public. The blockchain is managed by market participants through a peer-to-peer network, following a set protocol for validating new blocks. Every connected node or computer automatically downloads a copy of the blockchain, allowing transparent transaction tracking without the need for central record-keeping.

 

(2) Block mining

It refers to the process of adding a new transaction record to the blockchain as a block. For certain cryptocurrencies like Bitcoin, the mining process would generate new coins, increasing the total number in circulation. Mining requires specific software to solve mathematical puzzles and verify legitimate transactions within a block. These blocks are added to the public ledger (blockchain) approximately every 10 minutes.

 

(1) Decentralization: Cryptocurrencies operate without a central authority, relying on a group of users for maintenance and governance.

 

(2) Security: Cryptocurrencies employ advanced cryptographic algorithms to protect transactions and control coin generation, making them more resistant to counterfeiting or tampering compared to traditional currencies.

 

(3) Anonymity: While all transactions are recorded on a public ledger, a user can maintain anonymity by using one or a set of encrypted addresses.

 

(4) Global Reach: Cryptocurrencies can be used for cross-border transactions, enabling users to send and receive funds anywhere in the world without relying on traditional banking systems.

 

A cryptocurrency exchange serves as a platform for buying, selling, and exchanging various cryptocurrencies. These platforms typically facilitate the trading of different digital currencies, determine prices based on market demand and popularity, and charge transaction fees as a percentage of the trade value.

 

Bitcoin was created in 2009 by an anonymous developer or group of anonymous developers under the name of Satoshi Nakamoto. Bitcoin is a decentralized cryptocurrency that operates on a peer-to-peer network and utilizes a consensus mechanism. It is open source and uses blockchain technology as its underlying infrastructure.

 

The total market capitalization of the cryptocurrency market has exceeded $2.53 trillion since 2024, with Bitcoin, the largest cryptocurrency, experiencing a more than 69% increase in the first quarter of the year. The rise is driven by spot Bitcoin ETFs, which attracted over $12 billion of inflows in the first quarter. Currently, the spot Bitcoin ETFs hold a total of 831,000 bitcoins, with a value of around $59 billion.

Enhancing Portfolio Diversification

Bitcoin’s low correlation with mainstream financial markets makes it an effective tool for diversifying investment portfolios. Meanwhile, as Bitcoin gains wider acceptance and institutional investors incorporate it into their portfolios, its higher risk profile is expected to contribute to better portfolio performance.

[1] Statistical period: January 1, 2014, to December 31, 2023.

Source: Bloomberg, as of 31 December 2023. The four hypothetical portfolios shown are comprised of the following asset class representative benchmarks: Stocks as represented by the S&P 500 Index, Bonds as represented by the Bloomberg US Aggregate Bond Index, and Bitcoin as represented by the S&P Bitcoin Index. Bonds in the asset class table on the top are also represented by the Bloomberg US Aggregate Bond Index.

 

Similar to gold ETFs, spot Bitcoin ETFs are exchange-listed investment funds that enable indirect investments in Bitcoin without purchasing or holding the cryptocurrency.

Bitcoin ETFs are issued and managed by fund companies, listed on traditional stock exchanges, and invested in Bitcoin according to the ETF’s investment objectives and strategies. They aim to provide investors with investment returns that closely track the performance of a Bitcoin index (gross of fees and expenses).

 

(1) Secure transactions

Regulated spot Bitcoin ETFs listed on the Hong Kong Stock Exchange offer reduced risks of hacking and fraud due to the involvement of professional fund managers and reputable custodians. This eliminates the need for investors to protect private keys and manage wallets.

 

(2) Simple and convenient transactions

Spot ETFs can be bought and held through traditional stock accounts, similar to stocks, without requiring a dedicated cryptocurrency trading account.

 

(3) Low investment threshold

ETFs generally have a lower investment threshold, often starting at $100.

 

(4) Dual liquidity

Bitcoin, being the largest cryptocurrency in the world, serves as highly liquid underlying assets. The listing of spot ETFs on traditional exchanges further enhances liquidity.

 

(5) Regulated and legal assets

Bitcoin ETFs are legal investment products approved by Hong Kong regulators, with a reduced level of trading associated regulatory risks[2].

[2] Authorization of a fund product by the SFC does not imply a recommendation or endorsement by the SFC of Hong Kong, nor does it guarantee the commercial merits or performance of the fund product.

 

Futures cryptocurrency contracts are a more complex investment tool that requires a higher level of professional knowledge from investors. The performance of a futures cryptocurrency ETF may not precisely reflect that of a spot cryptocurrency due to certain tracking errors.
On the other hand, spot ETFs are more straightforward and easier to understand. They closely track the performance of cryptocurrencies such as Bitcoin and Ethereum, making them accessible to a wider group of investors. The advantages of spot ETFs include:

 

(1) Direct tracking of Bitcoin

Spot Bitcoin ETFs directly track the price of Bitcoin, rather than through futures contracts. They allow investors to gain more direct exposure to the price movements of these assets, without concerns about the potential risks associated with futures contracts.

 

(2) Exemption from expensive rolling costs

Futures ETFs typically incur higher transaction costs due to the management of futures contracts. In contrast, Spot ETFs have a simpler fee structure, often involving only management fees. This makes holding a spot ETF for the long term generally more cost-effective.

 

(3) Lower tracking error

Futures crypto ETFs require regular rollovers, which can lead to rollover costs, especially in situations where the futures price exceeds the spot price (known as contango).

(1) Time zone

Compared with the United States, local investors in Hong Kong can avoid the inconvenience and risks that may arise from cross-time zone trading.

 

(2) Innovative subscription and redemption arrangement, allowing both in-cash and in-kind transactions

Surpassing the United States, Hong Kong has introduced an innovative subscription and redemption mechanism that allows investors to choose between subscribing and redeeming ETFs in cash or in kind (physical cryptocurrency).

 

(3) Tax incentives

Hong Kong residents can enjoy tax benefits when purchasing spot Bitcoin ETFs in Hong Kong, sparing them relevant taxes. In contrast, investing in a U.S. spot Bitcoin ETF may involve additional taxes.

 

(4) Available to Hong Kong retail investors

Hong Kong investors can purchase Hong Kong’s spot Bitcoin ETFs mainly by completing a cryptocurrency knowledge test, in addition to meeting basic Know Your Customer (KYC) requirements. In contrast, Hong Kong investors purchasing the corresponding ETF in the United States must be professional investors who meet high investment threshold restrictions.

The cryptocurrency knowledge test consists of the following items:

(1) Completion of virtual asset-related training.

(2) Work experience in virtual asset-related fields.

(3) Prior trading experience of virtual assets.

If a customer fulfils any of the above three requirements, they are considered to have passed the test. In case retail investors fail to meet these criteria, intermediaries can provide relevant training to investors before facilitating transactions on their behalf.

 

Investment involves risks, including the loss of principle. Past performance is not indicative of future results.

You should not make investment decisions based on the information on this material alone. Please note:

Please note the above list of risks is not exhaustive, please refer to the Fund’s prospectus for details.

 

Investing involves risk, including possible loss of principal. Investment in emerging market countries may involve heightened risks such as increased volatility and lower trading volume, and may be subject to a greater risk of loss than investment in a developed country. Please carefully consider the Fund’s investment objectives, risk factors, and charges and expenses before investing. This and other information can be found in the relevant Fund’s prospectus.
