Valkyrie files for a Bitcoin futures ETF
Asset management firm Valkyrie has filed for a Bitcoin (BTC) futures exchange-traded fund (ETF) with the US Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC). Valkyrie filed this ETF while it still has a Bitcoin ETF application with the regulatory agency.According to the SEC filing dated August 11, the new ETF will not directly invest in the leading cryptocurrency. Instead, it will invest in a number of bitcoin futures contracts. This ETF differs from the earlier Bitcoin ETF the asset manager submitted to the US SEC.
Valkyrie said, “The Fund will invest indirectly, via a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Fund organized under the laws of the Cayman Islands (the “Subsidiary”), in standardized, cash-settled futures contracts on bitcoin. Such futures contracts are traded on commodity exchanges registered with the Commodity Futures Trading Commission (the “CFTC”). Currently, bitcoin futures contracts in which the Fund will invest are only traded on, or subject to the rules of, the Chicago Mercantile Exchange (the “CME”).”
Furthermore, the value of the Bitcoin futures would be determined by reference to the CME CF Bitcoin Reference Rate, providing an indication of Bitcoin’s price across a wide range of exchanges.
Gensler would favor a Bitcoin futures ETF
Valkyrie filed this ETF proposal after SEC chair Gary Gensler mentioned last week that the regulatory agency is interested in exchange-traded products tied to bitcoin futures. The SEC is yet to approve ETFs tied directly to Bitcoin and Ether but could approve the Bitcoin futures ETF.In addition to Valkyrie, ProShares, Invesco and VanEck have all submitted Bitcoin futures ETF proposals to the US SEC.

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.
