The two most read articles on ETF Database during the month of April were focused on cryptocurrency, both written by DJ Shaw. The article in the No. 1 spot, “CoinShares DIME Adds Hyperliquid to Altcoin Portfolio” highlighted a recent change in the portfolio of the CoinShares Altcoins ETF (DIME), which provides exposure to an index of alternative cryptocurrencies while excluding Ethereum, bitcoin and stablecoins.
The second-most-read article during the month was “Bitcoin Miners Shift Focus to AI Data Centers.” It described how some bitcoin mining companies are looking to diversify into artificial intelligence (AI) data centers, including the largest holding of the CoinShares Bitcoin Mining ETF (WGMI), Cipher Digital Inc.
The crypto-related stories were followed by Ben Hernandez’s piece on silver supply and demand, “Structural Silver Deficit: Navigate Volatility With a Dual-Asset Approach.” While investors are unloading silver-related assets due to equity market volatility, that could be counteracted by demand stemming from global electrification efforts.
Hernandez is also the author of the fourth-most-read article, “From WeeklyPay to MARS, Roundhill CEO Discusses ETF Innovation,” which covers the key takeaways from a conversation with the head of cutting-edge ETF issuer, Roundhill Investments.
A crypto-related article also rounds out April’s top five, with Elle Fitzgerald’s “Does Systematic Indexing Top Market Timing in Crypto?” claiming that rank. In an interview at the Exchange conference, Osprey Funds’ Bill Birmingham asserted that advisors avoid significant stress and better serve their clients by opting for an indexed approach rather than using active management strategies with cryptocurrencies.
