According to PANews, Strive Asset Management, founded by Vivek Ramaswamy, has filed for approval from U.S. regulators to list an exchange-traded fund (ETF) focused on Bitcoin convertible bonds. These bonds, referred to as 'Bitcoin bonds,' are convertible securities issued by companies like MicroStrategy, which plan to use the proceeds primarily for purchasing Bitcoin. The Strive Bitcoin Bond ETF will be actively managed, gaining exposure to these bonds directly or through financial derivatives such as swaps and options. While the management fees for investors have not been disclosed, actively managed funds typically incur higher fees than passive index funds.
Vivek Ramaswamy, a vocal supporter of former U.S. President Donald Trump, established Strive Asset Management in 2022. In November, Trump announced that Ramaswamy, alongside Tesla founder Elon Musk, would lead the Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE), a private initiative aimed at reducing government wasteful spending.
Earlier in November, Strive launched a wealth management division, incorporating Bitcoin into its standard investment portfolio.
