An exchange-traded fund (ETF) that specializes in cutting-edge public firms with exposure to Bitcoin will be liquidated, according to Valkyrie Funds LLC, a digital asset ETF issuer in the US, which made the announcement on Tuesday.

The administrator of digital content said that the Valkyrie Balance Sheet Opportunities FUND (Nasdaq: VBB), which has operated on Nasdaq since December 2021, would cease operations at the end of the month and thereafter be taken off the list.

According to a petition with the Securities and Exchange Commission on Tuesday, each shareholder who holds shares of both the fund at liquidation will receive a cash refund corresponding to the net asset value (NAV) of their holdings.

The fund's liquidation, according to Valkyrie, was the most prudent move and was part of a regular product evaluation to ensure that the business was best meeting consumer needs.

The company claimed that the decision was made after rigorous Board of Directors consultation. They came to the conclusion that ending the fund would be best for everyone concerned.

In Valkyrie's second ETF, which has the highest stakes in the companies recognized for storing Bitcoin on their account balances, MicroStrategy (MSTR) and Tesla (TSLA), customers have never shown much enthusiasm. The study states that the fund's net assets are currently barely around $570,000.

Shares may be traded up to the close of business on October 28. Valkyrie stated that it will cover all costs associated with the liquidation, cash distribution, and brokerage fees.

The Valkyrie Balance Sheet Opportunities ETF, which launched in December, sought to invest largely in businesses that deal in, have exposure to, or invest in the Bitcoin asset class on their balance sheets, as well as those who function as part of the Bitcoin ecosystem. The fund is the second in a line of ETFs from Valkyrie created to let investors invest in the world of digital assets.

When numerous buyers are still considering Bitcoin investment despite the financial meltdown, the fund is discontinued. And over 80% of financial advisors in the US, according to a recent study, are asked about cryptocurrencies, yet many find it difficult to allocate additional consumers to this asset class. Investment in these companies offers the to some that so many people are looking for, as many publicly traded businesses in the US currently hold Bitcoin and more corporations, institutions, and nations are steadily entering the field.
