New momentum: Volatility Shares applies for 5x leveraged crypto ETFs!

On October 14, 2025, Volatility Shares officially filed registration for a series of 5x leveraged ETFs in the cryptocurrency space. These ETFs target leading digital currencies such as Bitcoin (BTC), Ethereum (ETH), and Solana (SOL). Loud Crypto News has the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) has not yet approved any 3x cryptocurrency ETFs, underscoring the uncertainty over approval of the new 5x products.

If the applications are approved, the new funds could be launched on the markets as early as early 2026. The field of activity of Volatility Shares is expanding after a 2x Bitcoin Strategy ETF was launched in 2023. A total of 27 ETFs have been registered in this current filing, providing leverage on both cryptocurrencies and major US stocks. The stocks include well-known companies such as Tesla (TSLA), Nvidia (NVDA), Coinbase (COIN) and MicroStrategy (MSTR).

Planned functions of the new ETFs

The proposed funds aim to multiply the daily performance of the underlying asset with a leverage of 3 to 5. This is achieved through the use of futures, swaps and options. If approved, the ETFs could be listed on exchanges such as CBOE BZX, with an expected effective date of December 29, 2025.

It is important to note that leveraged ETFs can magnify both gains and losses. A 10% drop in the Bitcoin price could result in a loss of up to 50% for a 5x ETF. Therefore, such investment opportunities are preferably suitable for experienced traders. Additionally, the management costs of these ETFs are expected to be higher than those of traditional crypto ETFs.

The filing also suggests increasing demand for leveraged assets, especially while Bitcoin is currently trading above $110,000. This development could provide a significant incentive for investors looking to take advantage of the volatility of the cryptocurrency market.

As the cryptocurrency investment landscape continues to evolve, SEC approval remains a critical factor in the launch of these novel funds. The coming months are likely to be exciting as investors and traders closely monitor developments.
