Could you elaborate on what a cryptocurrency exchange traded fund (ETF) is? As an investor with a keen interest in the crypto space, I'm curious to understand how it differs from traditional ETFs and how it can potentially fit into a diversified portfolio. I've heard that it offers a way to gain exposure to the cryptocurrency market without directly owning the underlying assets. Could you explain the mechanics behind it and discuss the potential risks and rewards associated with investing in such a fund? I'm also interested to know if there are any specific regulatory considerations that investors should be aware of.
