Bitwise Proficio Currency Debasement ETF

The Bitwise Proficio Currency Debasement ETF is an actively managed exchange-traded fund designed to target assets that benefit from the declining purchasing power of fiat currencies. Launched through a partnership between Bitwise Asset Management, a global crypto asset manager with over $15 billion in client assets, and Proficio Capital Partners, a $5 billion investment advisory firm specializing in wealth preservation for high-net-worth families and foundations, the ETF seeks capital appreciation amid currency debasement trends. It maintains a minimum 25% allocation to gold at all times, with strategic exposures to silver, platinum, palladium, other precious metals, mining equities, and bitcoin, adjusting dynamically to market conditions. This approach leverages Bitwise's expertise in digital assets and Proficio's decades-long focus on precious metals strategies. In the financial markets, the ETF addresses growing concerns over fiat erosion—such as the U.S. dollar's 40% purchasing power loss over two decades—and offers diversified access to 'hard assets' as a potential portfolio complement, carrying a total expense ratio of 0.96%.
