'$1T Club' ETF offers exposure to tech giants and Bitcoin
A new exchange-traded fund has launched, giving investors access to a basket of trillion-dollar companies and Bitcoin (CRYPTO:BTC).
The Defiance Trillion Dollar Club Index ETF, trading under the ticker TRIL, tracks the BITA Trillion Dollar Club Index.
Its holdings include major tech names such as Nvidia, Tesla, Microsoft, Apple, bet, Amazon, and Meta Platforms.
The ETF also features Warren Buffett’s Berkshire Hathaway and BlackRock’s iShares Bitcoin Trust (IBIT).
Defiance ETFs highlighted that the companies represent leaders in AI, cloud, semiconductors, digital assets, and next-generation technologies.
TRIL made its market debut on Tuesday, with 5,744 shares traded at $20 each, generating a total volume of $114,800.
The ETF arrives after two years of sharp gains in the so-called “Mag 7” stocks and digital asset markets.
BlackRock’s IBIT has become the most popular Bitcoin fund, now managing nearly $88 billion in assets.
IBIT, approved by the SEC in January 2024 alongside nine other spot Bitcoin ETFs, has attracted strong institutional interest.
Bitcoin, which commands a $2.2 trillion market cap, has risen 77% over the past year despite macroeconomic pressures.
TRIL is one of several Defiance products offering exposure to digital assets and related stocks.
The company also runs MSTX, an ETF designed to provide leveraged exposure to Strategy Inc., a Bitcoin treasury firm.
Analysts note that both tech stocks and crypto continue to face headwinds from global economic uncertainty and potential U.S. government shutdowns.
At the time of reporting, Bitcoin price was $114,025.
