Leveraged ETFs are a popular financial product in the traditional finance market. In the crypto space, leveraged ETFs track the daily movement of an underlying crypto asset (e.g. BTC) with defined leverage times (e.g. 3x). Leveraged ETFs enable users to buy long or sell short for an asset within certain times. Take BTC3L (long) and BTC3S (short) leveraged ETFs as an example. BTC3L means 3x leverage long for BTC, while BTC3S means 3x leverage short. Suppose BTC rises by 1% on November 28th, correspondingly BTC3L will rise by 3% and BTC3S will drop by 3%, and vice versa. Put simply, a leveraged ETF is a product that provides users with exposure to higher leverages for both longs and shorts, so that users can utilize a smaller fund to earn greater yield when the market direction is right.
