Completely exited quickly. I had bought this ETF with a view to NFTs. Early this year, those NFTs started to get quite popular. Many of those NFTs have to be paid with Ethereum. Reason enough for me to buy this ETF. But since the invasion of Ukraine, I've seen NFT sales drop. People are now not thinking about picking up a new hype. It could well become a hype. But it is still too early to invest in this ETF based on that. I see cryptos and also stock markets making a bounce back today (temporarily bouncing up after a significant drop). With this ETF, I'll just use that to get out. We have also seen cryptos react negatively to the conflict in Ukraine. Due to the higher energy costs (oil), mining cryptos will also become more expensive or even no longer interesting. That too is a risk.
Mission accomplished.
This ETF or actually ETN (Exchange Traded Note) does not belong to any group. Reason to place this ETN in each group so that all ETF customers can take note of it. Maybe now it looks like I'm going to invest in cryptos. No, I've never done anything with cryptos myself and I'm not going to do it. So why did you buy this Ethereum crypto ETN? I expect NFTs to become very large. Now it is quite difficult to buy exactly that NFT that will generate a lot of money later on. Too big a risk for me. Nevertheless, I want to be able to profit from the great success that these NFTs are likely to become. After research I found out that almost all those NFTs use the Ethereum blockchain and have to be paid with Ethereum. The reason is that the Ethereum blockchain is extremely suitable for NFTs. The Bitcoin blockchain, for example, is not. Ethereum is currently the absolute market leader among NFTs as a means of payment with more than 95%. There will be alternatives. But it is likely that Ethereum will remain the market leader. So almost everyone who buys an NFT has to buy Ethereum first. If those NFTs become a success, Ethereum will rise sharply due to all those purchases. And that's the reason I'm buying this ETN. But there's more. The energy consumption of most cryptos is huge. Ethereum has the solution. With “the Merge” they will switch to a new type of blockchain in the course of this year. The energy consumption can then be about 1000 times lower and the transaction costs can therefore also be significantly reduced. So with investing in this Ethereum ETN I kill 2 birds with 1 stone. This year, Ethereum will become an extremely low-power crypto that will beat Bitcoin. And the main reason for me; I have a nice spot on the just departing NFT train. Two things are important for a significant increase in this ETN: NFTs must become a great success and even better a hype. Ethereum should remain one of the most widely used means of payment for buying an NFT.
The goal was 30% in 1 year. Now 16% has been realized in 2 weeks. The stock markets have risen very fast in recent times. Profit-taking and a temporary downturn are very likely. Biden's profit is now in the prices. The hope for a soon effective corona vaccine too. But the fact that the CEO of that company sold 62% of his shares raises doubts about the vaccine. All reasons to now take the nice profit made in a very short time.

There are 2 issues for this ETF. Firstly, of course, the effects of the corona measures. However, the spike in new corona cases appears to be near for most countries. Phasing out corona measures will raise this ETF. The result of the presidential election is a risk. But shortly afterwards we get the FED that can smooth things out again. Second, the long-term effect. This ETF contains dividend payers. Due to the corona situation, that dividend had to be abolished or reduced. That is why this ETF has not yet recovered well from the blow earlier this year. There will be a vaccine next year and the economic recovery will begin. If one can start paying more dividend again, this ETF will rise sharply. I do not expect the effect of more dividend until after the summer. So this ETF is a two-stage rocket.
The target was 20%. Sold with a profit of 15%. In these ETF companies that pay dividends. However, more and more companies are currently deciding to abolish the dividend. That creates a risk.
Panic sales. When the Coonavirus is over, the actions of central banks and governments will ensure that the economy will recover quickly. Stock exchanges will also recover afterwards. Dividend shares will be bought first. Because the price is extremely low and therefore the dividend yield extremely high.
In total 2 purchases. The last one on 10-7-2017. After the recent rise time to take profit. The risk that the trade deal between the US and China will not go ahead has become too big.
