Jakarta, Pintu News – Volatility Shares recently filed paperwork for the launch of new highly leveraged ETFs (Exchange-Traded Funds) that include several major cryptocurrencies such as Ethereum (ETH), Solana (SOL), and Ripple (XRP). This move is considered to be one of the most aggressive in the financial market today.
Using 5x leverage, Volatility Shares targets investors who are looking for high profit opportunities in a short period of time. The ETF is planned to begin operations on December 29, 2025, pending approval from the SEC (Securities and Exchange Commission).
The ETF proposed by Volatility Shares will use futures, swaps and options to achieve a magnified daily performance exposure. The product will offer 3x and 5x leverage, meaning a 1% movement in the price of the underlying asset in a day will result in a 3% or 5% movement in the ETF. This allows for a significant increase in both gains and losses, making it a highly speculative option.
This highly leveraged ETF includes not only cryptocurrencies but also stocks from major tech companies such as Nvidia (NVDA), Tesla (TSLA), and Coinbase (COIN). As such, Volatility Shares is not only attractive to crypto traders but also to investors interested in the technology and innovation sector.

According to Eric Balchunas, ETF analyst from Bloomberg, this move is one that is unprecedented in the ETF market. Although the SEC has yet to approve a 3x leveraged product, Volatility Shares has dared to propose a 5x leveraged product. This shows the company’s optimism and courage in the face of strict regulations.
In addition, the market has shown high interest in these innovative products. Professional investors and traders see this as an opportunity to maximize profits in the short term. However, they are also aware of the very high risks involved, especially in the often unpredictable volatility of the crypto market.

The approval process by the SEC has become more complicated due to delays caused by the US government shutdown. However, Volatility Shares utilizes a procedural window that allows their filings to potentially become effective automatically after 75 days, if no decision is made.
This shows an ingenious strategy in the face of regulatory barriers. Meanwhile, other companies such as GraniteShares have also filed leveraged ETFs for Ripple (XRP) and other cryptocurrencies. This shows a growing trend where more financial firms are trying to enter the crypto space with bolder and innovative products.
With the growing number of crypto ETF filings, especially those using high leverage, the global financial market may witness significant changes in the way investors interact with digital assets.
Despite the high risk, the appeal of quick and large returns makes these products very attractive to some investors. Going forward, regulatory decisions will largely determine the direction of the crypto ETF market.
