REX launched a 2x leveraged ETF, associated with the Bitcoin treasury company Strive

REX Shares and Tuttle Capital Management jointly launched a leveraged ETF------T-REX 2X Long ASST Daily Target ETF, which began trading on Friday at the Cboe exchange under the ticker ASSX. The fund aims to achieve 200% of Strive's daily stock price performance before fees, providing traders with a leveraged betting avenue on this Bitcoin treasury company.

Unlike spot Bitcoin ETFs, ASSX does not hold Bitcoin nor track its price, but instead offers leveraged exposure to Strive's stock price. The fund resets its leverage daily, so returns over more than one trading day may significantly differ from Strive's twofold performance. REX and Tuttle stated that the two companies also launched 2x leveraged ETFs related to Strategy, BitMine, Cipher Mining, Circle, and SharpLink.

According to data from BitcoinTreasuries.NET, Strive currently holds 25,000 Bitcoins, making it the fifth largest Bitcoin holder among publicly traded companies. The company last purchased 469 Bitcoins, financing the acquisition through the sale of its perpetual preferred stock SATA. On Friday, Strive's stock price rose 6.4%, closing at $30.09.
