Cantor Fitzgerald Asset Management, an investment management firm based in New York, announced the launch of a New background that seeks to offer exposure to Bitcoin with special protection against falls: the back of gold.
The vehicle, called Cantor Fitzgerald Gold Protected Bitcoin Fund, will combine the bullish potential of the digital currency with the relative stability of the precious metal.
The proposal points to investors interested in Bitcoin, but who want to reduce the risk of possible sudden price falls. For that, The fund will offer what the company describes as a “protection 1 to 1 against the decline based on the price of gold”. In other words, if Bitcoin falls, the background would compensate part of that loss through its exposure to gold, an asset historically considered as a refuge.
The background will last five years and is designed to capture Bitcoin’s increases without putting a roof to the profits. At the same time, it incorporates a mechanism that cushions the falls using the value of gold as a shield. It is expected to begin accepting investments in the coming weeks. The exact date has not been informed.
“We believe this is a truly innovative investment vehicle,” said Brandon G. Lutnick, president of Cantor Fitzgerald, when presenting the initiative. “It helps investors to take advantage of Bitcoin’s growth potential with fall protection based on the price of gold.”
This is the first Bitcoin centered background launched by singer Fitzgerald Asset Management. The firm seeks to position itself within the growing market of financial products that combine traditional and digital assets, with the aim of attracting both institutional investors and individuals seeking new forms of diversification.
As cryptootics has reported, in 2025, both Gold and Bitcoin have marked new historical maximums in their price.
