ETHDCProShares UltraShort Ether ETF

RWMBProShares Short Russell2000

In short

ETHD The only ETF aiming at -2x the daily move in ether, per ProShares. It gets there with swaps and futures rather than an actual short position, resets every day, and charges 0.95%.

RWM Short small caps at one speed: RWM targets the inverse of the Russell 2000's daily move, with no 2x or 3x multiplier on top. Trading since 2007, at 0.95% net of a waiver through September 30, 2027.

Stated mandate

ETHD The fund seeks daily results equal to negative two times the daily performance of the Bloomberg Ethereum Index, before fees and expenses.

RWM The fund seeks daily investment results, before fees and expenses, that correspond to the inverse of the Russell 2000 Index's daily performance.

Why people hold it

  • ETHD ProShares bills it as the only -2x ether ETF on the market, and it has been live since 2024, through real crypto swings in both directions.proshares.com
  • It handles the plumbing: futures and swaps inside the fund, rebalanced daily to the -2x target. No margin account, no borrow, and the fund never shorts ether itself.proshares.comsec.gov
  • Fee is 0.95%, no waiver propping it up, near what leveraged and inverse funds typically charge. Same-index sibling SETH (-1x) also sits at 0.95% net, but net of a waiver through September 30, 2027.
  • RWM Straight -1x, not a multiplier: it tracks the inverse of the Russell 2000's daily move, where stablemate TWM targets -2x on the same index.proshares.com
  • ProShares calls it the only -1x ETF tied to the Russell 2000, the index of the 2,000 smallest US names in the Russell 3000.proshares.comproshares.com 2
  • Trading since January 2007 and one of the busier funds in the inverse-equity aisle, so entering and exiting is rarely the hard part.
  • Fee is 0.95% net of a waiver through September 30, 2027 (1.05% gross), near what this category charges, and it rates among the strongest builds in its peer group.

Worth knowing

  • ETHD Daily reset. Hold longer than a day and compounding takes over: results can differ a lot from -2x the index move, especially in choppy markets.proshares.com
  • ProShares says these funds should be monitored daily. Two times the inverse of a crypto price is a fast-moving position, not a set-and-forget one.proshares.com
  • Exposure runs through derivatives and counterparties, including swaps that can reference spot ether ETFs, rather than a direct short in ether.proshares.com
  • RWM The -1x target resets daily. Hold longer and compounding rules: ProShares says multi-day returns can differ significantly from the target, in amount and even direction.proshares.comproshares.com 2
  • Symmetric by design: on days the Russell 2000 climbs, the fund is built to lose roughly as much as the index gains.proshares.com
  • Fund documents tell investors to monitor holdings as frequently as daily, which puts this at the hands-on end of the shelf.proshares.com
