BTF - Bitcoin ETFs slide as the underlying cryptocurrency drops below $22K

Bitcoin Strategy exchange traded funds have declined 10% since Bitcoin ( BTC-USD ) hit a multi-week high last week. The slide has come as the crypto asset has now steadily declined below the $22,000 level.

The financial market's three crypto ETFs ProShares Bitcoin Strategy ETF ( NYSEARCA: BITO ), Valkyrie Bitcoin Strategy ETF ( NASDAQ: BTF ), and the VanEck Bitcoin Strategy ETF ( BATS: XBTF ) have all dropped in Monday's early going, retreating by 3.5% , 3.6% , and 3.4% respectively.

At the other end of the spectrum, ProShares Short Bitcoin Strategy ETF ( NYSEARCA: BITI ), which offers a way for investors to potentially profit from a decline in the price of Bitcoin, has made some gains. The fund is +3.8% on the session and is +10.9% from its July 20 ^th low.

Moreover, Bitcoin itself now hovers near the $21,750 marker and is down 3.5% on the session, and trades to the downside by 54.2% on the bigger year-to-date picture.

Both Bitcoin and its related ETFs remain under pressure as investors look ahead to this week's Federal Reserve interest rate decision on Wednesday.
