I rate the 2X Bitcoin ETF (BITX) a buy, but only as a strategic, risk-managed allocation within a diversified portfolio. BITX's extreme volatility, drawdowns, and volatility decay make it unsuitable for passive buy-and-hold; pairing with safe assets and active risk controls is essential. A 40/60 BITX/SHY blend with a moving average strategy historically improved risk-adjusted returns, lowered drawdowns, and offered diversification benefits.
