It is our constitutional right to be able to invest in funds based on any type of product. The fund managers should be able to manage a crypto based fund the same way they manage a stock or bond fund.
The proposed rules are overly restrictive. There are no similar restrictions on other securities such as stocks and bonds. Most investments have the potential to gain or lose value in response to market conditions. It is not appropriate or necessary for crypto to be actively discouraged.
Unfair Restrictions are put in place to keep the majority of investors from gaining larger profits. There is no reason to invest in the stock market if shareholders dont truly own the stocks they hold or are held back during peak performance periods. Millions of people missed out on buying Bitcoin years ago. Once the Bito shares became public some people including myself, could invest in crypto
In my opinion. These ETF's are no more risky than any other investment, especially under the current market conditions. When meme stocks and crypto currencies are more volatile and unpredictable than any leveraged or inverse fund. .
i do not need to be protected from myself with leveraged funds. I understand their investment role and associated risks. I balance these risks with blue-chip stocks and they provide a way to improve the overall return of my portfolio without excessive risky behavior like crypto.
Crypto shouldnt need any more information gathering than other current investments. There are no requirements for stocks, bonds, ETFs, so why should there be another asset class. Just because its unfamiliar doesnt mean it should be treated differently.
(a) Definitions. For purposes of these Rules, the following definitions shall apply:

This does not need more big government! I'm a small-time investor, and I want to make my own investment decisions. Of course, all investing carries a risk - stocks, bonds, crypto, buying houses, etc etc.
These funds create an equal playing field for the small-time investors, not Wall Street. So please do not pass this. Thank-you.
