First Trust Advisors has unveiled two new Bitcoin strategy exchange-traded funds, adding to a suite of products that currently hold more than $28 billion in net assets. In an announcement on April 4, First Trust said it launched the two Bitcoin ( BTC ) strategy ETFs this week. Specifically, the bitcoin exchange-traded funds are part of the the Floor15 ETF Series of Target Outcome ETFs, with both the FT Vest Bitcoin Strategy Floor15 ETF – April and the FT Vest Bitcoin Strategy & Target Income ETF listed on the NYSE Arca under tickers BFAP and DFII respectively. “The FT Vest Bitcoin Strategy Floor15 ETF – April represents an innovative step forward in risk-managed cryptocurrency investing. By structuring investments with a defined floor and upside cap, we provide investors with a more controlled way to engage with bitcoin while mitigating downside exposure. This strategy reflects Vest’s commitment to outcome-focused solutions that seek to deliver more certainty and clarity to portfolios,” said Jeff Chang, president of Vest. Ryan Issakainen, senior vice president and ETF strategist at First Trust, said the launch follows years of demand for bitcoin-linked ETFs. BFAP will allow those seeking to participate in the crypto space a chance to tap into BTC’s upside potential with clarity on downside risk. As well as BFAP, First Trust believes DFII will gain traction for its potential. The fund, as Issakainen noted in a statement, will allow investors to explore opportunities around Bitcoin’s high volatility. Investors can look to generate income from this by selling call options. The asset manager offers DFII as an actively managed fund, with 80% of net assets invested in bitcoin and income-generating investments. First Trust’s Target Outcome ETFs have seen a 53% spike in net assets in the past year, with over $28 billion as of the end of February.

Solana (SOL) regained focus Saturday, rising nearly 6% over 24 hours to trade near $120 as positive news developments converged on a critical technical support zone. Futures market sentiment also turned decidedly bullish, with analyst Ali Martinez reporting 71.4% of Binance traders holding long Solana positions. Fueling bullish sentiment, Grayscale Investments filed a registration statement with the SEC on Friday seeking to convert its Grayscale Solana Trust (GSOL) into a spot Solana ETF listed on NYSE Arca. This move mirrors Grayscale’s successful conversions for Bitcoin and Ethereum products. Market observers consider Solana a strong candidate for eventual spot ETF approval, citing its established U.S. futures market and a perceived shift toward clearer crypto regulation. An approved ETF would offer traditional investors direct SOL exposure, opening up capital inflows. Separately, payments giant PayPal updated its services to include full support for Solana (and Chainlink) within its PayPal and Venmo apps in the US. Users can now buy, sell and hold SOL directly, enhancing the token’s accessibility and utility on the platform. Related: Will Solana Get Faster? Devs Propose Higher Block Transaction Limits From a technical perspective, analyst Crypto Patel noted SOL is holding firm within a key Fibonacci support zone between $100–$115 . This area acted as a launchpad for significant rallies in the previous bull cycle. Patel suggested that if this zone holds, accumulation could lead to a breakout confirmation above $186. Such a move could set the stage for retesting the previous all-time high near $296, with a potential longer-term Fibonacci-driven target near $1,011. However, current indicators warrant some caution. The Relative Strength Index (RSI) hovers near 40.74, indicating weak momentum, with its gradient suggesting potential for near-term selling pressure despite the daily price gain. SOL also remains below its 20-day EMA resistance around $128.23.
