Purpose Bitcoin ETF, ticker symbol BTCC, will begin trading in Toronto in what is being hailed a major milestone for the cryptocurrency and ETF industries.
Purpose Bitcoin ETF
According to Purpose Investments, this is the world’s first Bitcoin ETF backed by physically-settled BTC and not derivatives.The ETF gives investors exposure to bitcoin without the associated risks of owning and safeguarding the digital asset.
The Fund is denominated in both the Canadian dollar and U.S. dollar units.
Purpose founder and CEO Som Seif is happy about the new ETF and the options it offers to investors.
“We are so happy to be able to offer this innovation to investors, making the process of owning Bitcoin easier than ever,” said Seif.
“We believe Bitcoin, as the first and largest asset in the emerging cryptocurrency ecosystem, is poised to continue its growth trajectory and adoption as an alternative asset, further cementing the investment opportunity it presents,” he continued.
The ETF, according to Seif, is Purpose’s way of offering investors alternative solutions that they are not accustomed to.
“Driving forward to be the leader in cryptocurrency investing is a testament to Purpose’s goal of providing investors with alternative investment solutions that are not based off of traditional benchmarks.”
Bitcoin’s growing popularity
Purpose will be the manager of the ETF while Ether Capital Corporation will be a consultant to Purpose.Ether Capital CEO Brian Mosoff acknowledged that bitcoin’s growing popularity is attracting institutional investors.
“We’ve seen the growing popularity of Bitcoin as both individual investors and institutions have increased their exposure to cryptocurrency as an asset class, using it as a tool to diversify and strengthen their portfolios,” said Mosoff.
Purpose worked for several months with the Ontario Securities Commission (OSC) to finalize the approval and launch of the ETF.
America lags behind
While Europe is home to several “physically-backed” Bitcoin exchange-traded products that an ETF, BTCC is the first of its kind in North America.The U.S. is yet to approve a bitcoin or crypto ETF, however, VanEck and Bitwise Asset Management - which just launched a DeFi Crypto Index Fund - have their filings pending.

Frequently Asked Questions
Can I trust Cryptonary's calls?
Yes. We've consistently identified winners across multiple cycles. Bitcoin under $1,000, Ethereum under $70, Solana under $10, WIF from $0.003 to $5, PopCat from $0.004 to $2, SPX blasting past $1.70, and our latest pick has already 200X'd since June 2025. Everything is timestamped and public record.
Do I need to be an experienced trader or investor to benefit?
No. When we founded Cryptonary in 2017 the market was new to everyone. We intentionally created content that was easy to understand and actionable. That foundational principle is the crux of Cryptonary. Taking complex ideas and opportunities and presenting them in a way a 10 year old could understand.
What makes Cryptonary different from free crypto content on YouTube or Twitter?
Signal vs noise. We filter out 99.9% of garbage projects, provide data backed analysis, and have a proven track record of finding winners. Not to mention since Cryptonary's inception in 2017 we have never taken investment, sponsorship or partnership. Compare this to pretty much everyone else, no track record, and a long list of partnerships that cloud judgements.
Why is there no trial or refund policy?
We share highly sensitive, time-critical research. Once it's out, it can't be "returned." That's why membership is annual only. Crypto success takes time and commitment. If someone is not willing to invest 12 months into their future, there is no place for them at Cryptonary.
Do I get direct access to the Cryptonary team?
Yes. You will have 24/7 to the team that bought you BTC at $1,000, ETH at $70, and SOL at $10. Through our community chats, live Q&As, and member only channels, you can ask questions and interact directly with the team. Our team has over 50 years of combined experience which you can tap into every single day.
How often is content updated?
Daily. We provide real-time updates, weekly reports, emergency alerts, and live Q&As when the markets move fast. In crypto, the market moves fast, in Cryptonary, we move faster.
How does the success guarantee work?
If our approach to the market doesn’t beat the overall crypto market during your subscription, we’ll give you a full refund of your membership fee. No questions asked. For quarterly and monthly subscribers this is applicable once your subscription runs for 6 consecutive months.
