ProShares Ultra Bitcoin ETF (BITU)

2x leveraged daily Bitcoin futures ETF (not spot/physical Bitcoin) from ProShares – seeks 2x the daily return of Bitcoin via CME futures.

Important Disclaimer: This is a **leveraged futures-based ETF** that resets daily and uses compounding. It is **not** a spot Bitcoin ETF (no direct/physical Bitcoin holdings). It carries significantly higher risk/volatility than spot products like IBIT or FBTC. Suitable only for short-term, experienced traders. Long-term holding can lead to substantial deviation from 2x Bitcoin performance due to daily reset and volatility decay.
