BLCN is one of the first ETFs to focus on blockchain technology. The fund holds a global portfolio of companies committed to blockchain development and is expected to benefit from the innovation, adoption, deployment, and commercialization of blockchain technology. In selecting companies, the adviser considers factors such as: the company's role in developing blockchain technology, the stage of blockchain product development, the potential financial impact of blockchain technology utilization, its blockchain R&D spending, and its public disclosures. The investment universe is then narrowed to only include companies with market caps greater than $200 million and that have a six-month ADTV greater than $1 million. Note: The fund was acquired by SRN Advisors. Before Nov. 23, 2020, the fund and index names were Reality Shares Nasdaq NexGen Economy ETF and Reality Shares Nasdaq Blockchain Economy Index, respectively. On Dec. 29, 2025, the fund transitioned into an actively managed ETF.
