"Tuttle Capital Pioneers Leveraged Crypto ETFs: 200% Returns, 50% Loss Risk"

Tuttle Capital Management has made a significant move by filing for 10 different leveraged crypto asset exchange-traded funds (ETFs), marking a historic first in the U.S. The proposed ETFs include those tracking 200% returns of various cryptocurrencies and memecoins, such as Chainlink (LINK), Cardano (ADA), Polkadot (DOT), Melania (MELANIA), XRP (XRP), Bonk (BONK), Solana (SOL), Litecoin (LTC), and Trump (TRUMP).

The daily performance returns of these tokens will be tracked and generated through swaps, call options, and direct investments, according to the filing. However, investors are warned of the potential risks associated with leveraged products, as they can amplify both gains and losses. A single trading day could result in investors losing their entire capital if the underlying asset's value drops by more than 50%.

Analysts have suggested that these filings may be a test of what the Trump administration may allow in terms of crypto regulation. The new crypto task force led by Hester Peirce is expected to play a significant role in determining which products will be approved. Notably, the filings include a 2x Melanie ETF, which is unusual, as a 1x Melania ETF has not yet been filed.

The ETFs could potentially be out in April, unless explicitly disapproved by the SEC, as these are an "Act 40" filing, which allows for potential trading if not disapproved within the review period due to its structured process for review and approval of investment products.

While some analysts have expressed skepticism about the suitability of such products for US capital markets, others have not ruled out the possibility of their approval. The SEC has already greenlit spot Bitcoin and Ethereum ETFs, and the new acting chairman, Mark Uyeda, may play a role in the agency's future decisions regarding crypto ETFs.
