Best Blockchain ETFs: Invest in Blockchain Technology
Blockchain ETFs don’t hold cryptocurrency directly. Instead, they invest in publicly traded companies exposed to blockchain technology — from crypto miners and exchanges like Coinbase (COIN) to semiconductor manufacturers and enterprise software firms building on distributed ledger systems. This “picks and shovels” approach gives exposure to the broader blockchain economy through regulated financial instruments.
Blockchain itself is a decentralized digital ledger that records transactions in linked blocks, making data tamper-resistant once confirmed across the network. Its applications extend well beyond cryptocurrency into supply chain tracking, decentralized finance (DeFi), smart contracts, and enterprise solutions. Major technology companies including Meta Platforms, IBM, and Microsoft have invested in blockchain for uses ranging from fintech to food safety.
Notable blockchain ETFs include:
- Amplify Blockchain Technology ETF (BLOK) — Launched in January 2018, this is an actively managed fund holding companies across blockchain platforms, applications, and mining. Notable holdings include Metaplanet, Robinhood Markets, and Galaxy Digital.
- Global X Blockchain ETF (BKCH) — Tracks the Solactive Blockchain Index, covering digital asset mining, blockchain transactions, hardware, and integration. Holds Coinbase Global, Riot Platforms, and MARA Holdings.
- VanEck Digital Transformation ETF (DAPP) — Tracks the MVIS Global Digital Assets Equity Index, with roughly 63% of holdings headquartered in the United States. Top names include Strategy (MSTR) and Coinbase Global.
- First Trust Indxx Innovative Transaction & Process ETF (LEGR) — The most diversified blockchain ETF with 104 stocks, selecting companies that either develop or employ blockchain. Holdings include NVIDIA, AMD, and Taiwan Semiconductor.
- Fidelity Crypto Industry and Digital Payments ETF (FDIG) — Launched in April 2022, covering cryptocurrency, blockchain, and digital payments companies. About 73% of holdings are U.S.-based.
- Siren Nasdaq NexGen Economy ETF (BLCN) — Takes a broader technology approach with less exposure to pure crypto holding companies. Holds Accenture, Robinhood, and Qualcomm.
Since no publicly traded company operates exclusively in blockchain, most holdings in these ETFs overlap with broader technology ETFs and cryptocurrency ETFs. The key difference lies in each fund’s index methodology — some are actively managed, others rules-based — and whether they lean toward mining infrastructure, enterprise adoption, or digital payments.
